CM Punk talks about working with Paul Heyman in OVW

CM Punk and Heyman go way back and are the best of friends. On the No-Contest Wrestling Podcast,

Punk said the following about working with The Wiseman in OVW:

"I dedicated myself to learning as much as I can in that window I thought I had until I get fired. That meant Heyman would fly into Lousiville at 9-10 p.m. on a Tuesday, I’d pick him up at the airport, we’d go right to the Davis Arena, and I’d either watch him just write TV and format it, and he did it like it as me making a cup of coffee. He’s doing all this stuff and he slides it over to me, ‘What do you think? What don’t you understand?’ I learned how to format a show, I learned how to time out a show, half second in and out for commercials. I learned all this stuff. ‘What do you think of this idea? What would you do?’" [H/T Fightful]

Many fans believe Paul Heyman could turn on Reigns on the road to WrestleMania 41 or at the event itself. Only time will tell if Heyman ends up leaving The OTC for either of his two opponents.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
