Reporter Nick Hausman asked Reigns about WWE’s potential sale. According to reports, WWE is in advanced talks with the UFC’s parent, Endeavor Group, for a sale. Heyman took over and used his wit to hit back at the reporter.
After Reigns stated he was oblivious to the recent reports, Paul Heyman called out the reporter for initiating trouble at press conferences.
“…he knows he has a bad habit of asking bad question in press conferences,” Heyman said referring to an infamous incident involving one of his former collaborators, CM Punk in 2022.
At the 2022 AEW All Out Media Scrum, CM Punk fired a series of insults against his colleagues, eventually resulting in his suspension from the company.
Punk’s comments about his former friend Colt Cabana, and fellow talents Hagman Page, The Young Bucks, and Kenny Omega weren’t well received. This resulted in a backstage brawl, resulting in the suspension of The Elite and Punk.
