WWE Hall of Famer Paul Heyman recently opened up about his creative process and revealed how he would book a major rival of Roman Reigns. The Head of the Table defeated Solo Sikoa in a Tribal Combat match last week on WWE RAW.
Speaking on Logan Paul's Impaulsive podcast, Heyman was asked a very interesting question. The Wiseman was asked how he would book Logan Paul in 2025 and gave a lengthy response. The legend noted that he would not just be focused on booking The Maverick for 2025, he would be thinking about the next few years as well.
"My answer is I wouldn’t book him just for 2025. My question would be, who is Logan Paul’s opponent for WrestleMania 42, and more importantly, who is Logan Paul’s opponent for WrestleMania 43? If we’re just looking at ‘who is his opponent for (WrestleMania) 41 or 42,’ then we’re narrowcasting here," he said.
Heyman then revealed that he had never written a script without knowing what the end of the story would be.
"I have never written a script or answered an idea without knowing the final page. I write the final page first. Here is the end, it may transition to something else, but here is how this story ends. How do we get there? How do we milk it? How do we tease them? What’s the intrigue? What are the other characters’ dimensions that play off of this? How does this story affect all others?" he added.
