Paul Heyman has been one of the most well-known and established names in the pro wrestling world for decades. His mind for the industry is second to none, as Heyman truly understands the business. Vince Russo has a much different name in pro wrestling, and he dragged Paul Heyman for having no credibility.
Heyman is certainly one of the best talkers on the microphone. He has worked with numerous stars during his career and helped them significantly. This includes the likes of Brock Lesnar, CM Punk, Roman Reigns and more
Paul Heyman cut a promo on Matt Riddle during this week’s episode of Monday Night RAW. Heyman ended his promo by introducing The Usos and flipping the microphone.
While speaking on Legion of RAW, Vince Russo criticized the segment. He also proceeded to drag Paul Heyman for having no credibility.
“Here’s what’s so lost to me. When you get to the end of the promo where Heyman has the mic, and he was like, ‘I’ve got a surprise for you and The Usos,’ and he does the mic flip! Bro, who are The Usos? You know what I’m saying? The Usos have been beaten a million times. So, that’s the thing, when Heyman’s doing ‘The Usos’ (impersonates Paul Heyman), there is no credibility to it. That’s the problem.
It’s not that you are actually announcing or bringing in somebody out there that’s been on a roll, that’s been undefeated, and nobody’s beaten them. You’re doing The Usos, and you’re flipping the mic like, oh, The Usos like they haven’t beaten 15,000 times. There is no effect, bro. Nothing, zero!”
It is very ironic that Vince Russo of all people could say Paul Heyman has no credibility. Fans are very likely to disagree with what Russo has to say, which is not necessarily anything new either.
