Paul Heyman has long been an open and audible advocate for wrestlers he believes has talent and potential.
From his early days in WCW, to ECW, WWE and beyond, Heyman is not shy when it comes to letting people know who he sees as Paul Heyman Guys.
One former client of his that he didn't believe in, it turns out, is Ryback.
During a virtual meet-and-greet, Heyman was asked what talent he worked with that he knew wouldn't become a big star, singling out The Big Guy by saying 'Ryback. Would you like to know why Ryback? Because he was a schmuck'.
Naturally, the similarly outspoken Ryback responded, tweeting out:
Thanks for the mention today @HeymanHustle Still a bit sore I turned you down after that sweet kiss and proposal on your end. Don’t make me show up at SummerSlam and show you and your boy how to get over organically as a baby face.
I think Roman's doing fine.
