Former WWE star reacts to Paul Heyman claiming she still "lusts" after him

A former WWE star has reacted to Paul Heyman claiming that she still lusted for him despite no longer being with the company. Heyman used to be a member of The Bloodline, but the faction betrayed him in June.

Kayla Braxton is a former backstage interviewer for the company and previously served as a host on WWE's The Bump before exiting the promotion earlier this year. Braxton had a humorous relationship with Paul Heyman during her time at the company, and The Wiseman claimed that she still lusts after him on social media today.

Heyman took to social media to react to Braxton discussing him during an appearance on Instinct Culture with Denise Salcedo.

"Thank You Mssssssssss. Braxton (and I appreciate the fact your sapiosexual lust for me is still on full display)!" he wrote.

Kayla Braxton hilariously reacted to Heyman's comment with a kissing face emoji, as seen in her post below.

Heyman has not appeared on television since the June 28 edition of SmackDown at Madison Square Garden. The Bloodline powerbombed him through the announce table after the Hall of Famer refused to acknowledge Solo Sikoa as his Tribal Chief earlier this year.

Sam Roberts comments on Paul Heyman's absence from WWE television

Media personality Sam Roberts recently discussed why Paul Heyman is not being featured on WWE television.

Speaking on his Notsam Wrestling podcast, Roberts claimed that Heyman not being on SmackDown had allowed Roman Reigns to be presented in a new light. The Original Tribal Chief teamed up with Cody Rhodes to defeat The Bloodline's Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu in the main event of Bad Blood last night.

"That's why Roman doesn't have the mic put into his hand exactly the way he wants it. That's why Roman looks to his left as he's getting in the ring and realizes there is nobody there with him. And if Paul Heyman returns with Roman Reigns, that's a story element we can't use." [From 06:33 to 07:09]

Heyman was inducted into the Hall of Fame during WrestleMania weekend earlier this year. It will be interesting to see when the 59-year-old returns to WWE television down the line.
