During his interview with Rich Eisen, Heyman addressed key topics surrounding WWE WrestleMania 41, his relationship with CM Punk, walking down Punk to the ring at the event for a triple threat match that also includes Roman Reigns and more. Here are the highlights:
On if he will walk CM Punk into WrestleMania 41:
“Absolutely. I will live up to my promise to CM Punk. I will live up to my promise to my best friend in the world, CM Punk. I will be loyal to my best friend in the world, CM Punk, which does not mean I’m going to be disloyal to myTribal Chief. Roman Reigns.”
On what people will be talking about after WrestleMania 41:
“The trajectory to WrestleMania 42 and how Paul Heyman fits into that equation as well.”
On being the host of 2K Showcase:
“2K Sports in their infinite wisdom, reached out not only to your Tribal Chief, but also to your wise man to be on the cover of WWE 2K25. They also had us on the cover of the special Bloodline edition of WWE 2K25 and then they have had me do a whole bunch of media that no one from the sports entertainment industry has done before. So massive credit to the expansionist concept and the marketing of WWE 2K25 to not just limit us to media that typically covers wrestling or media like yours that only covers the very, very top end of this industry, but to expand us into other genres and avenues of media and publicity that had before never touched the subject, even if it’s video games, even if it’s a multi-billion dollar video game that had never touched the subject before, even though, in some ways it was worthy, but never more worthy than when Roman Reigns and Paul Heyman are on the cover of the game.”
