Roman Reigns failed to connect with Paul Heyman when he called him last Friday on WWE SmackDown. The Wiseman's number was disconnected, leading many to speculate about the reason. An analyst in Stamford-based company recently predicted why the Hall of Famer cut his connection with his Tribal Chief.
Heyman was last seen on television in June when he refused to acknowledge Solo Sikoa as his Tribal Chief, leading the new Bloodline to destroy him and put him through the announce table. Before that happened, The Wiseman revealed that he had no communication with Reigns since the latter's defeat against Cody Rhodes on Night Two of WrestleMania 40. As the OG Bloodline continued to struggle against the new Bloodline last Friday, the Original Tribal Chief finally attempted to call Heyman. He looked distressed when he heard the recorded message telling him the number was disconnected or out of service.
On his Notsam Wrestling podcast, Roberts addressed multiple possible theories about why Heyman had disconnected his phone, including The Wiseman potentially conspiring with the new Bloodline against Roman's team. However, he disclosed that he believes the reason was just because Reigns broke The Wiseman's heart:
"Paul Heyman disconnected because the [Original] Tribal Chief broke his heart. My theory is that you need to look no further than a single frame of Paul Heyman being powerbombed through the table. The second before Paul Heyman was powerbombed through that table. He looked into the camera for one millisecond as if to say, 'My Tribal Chief, where are you? Why hast thou forsaken me my Tribal Chief? After everything I've done for you, where are you? How could you allow this?"
New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
The 41-year-old WWE analyst recalled Heyman looking "disheveled and distraught" when Sikoa told him that he had spoken to Reigns when the latter had not contacted him. He claimed the Hall of Famer was hurt and felt alone. Hence, he blocked the Original Tribal Chief:
"It ended up with bodily harm coming to The Wiseman and the [Original] Tribal Chief not there to help him. And I think that hurt The Wiseman. And I think that left The Wiseman feeling alone. And I think The Wiseman said, 'Okay,' just likes if a girl breaks your heart, if a boy breaks your heart, eventually for your own health, especially if they're lingering, you gotta put them on block. You gotta seize contact with them. I think that, to me, is what Paul Heyman did." [From 26:48 to 29:49]
WWE legend thinks The Usos could bring Paul Heyman back
Roman Reigns is apparently suffering in the absence of his Wiseman Paul Heyman. After the Original Tribal Chief failed to reach the WWE Hall of Famer last Friday on SmackDown, former World Heavyweight Champion Mark Henry addressed how Heyman could return on the Busted Open podcast.
The World's Strongest Man claimed Jimmy and Jey Uso could be the ones to bring back Heyman to end Reigns' suffering:
"Maybe it's The Usos when they see that Roman is suffering. And, you know, then that way Roman would be able to do what I was saying earlier. He's like, 'Hey, you see the act of kindness that your cousins did.' And just have it go from that point," he said.
The OG Bloodline is seemingly in crucial need of The Wiseman. It would be interesting to see if he will return to help the team ahead of their WarGames match against Solo Sikoa's Bloodline.
