Paul Heyman’s Involvement in Roman Reigns & Cody Rhodes’ 9/20 WWE SmackDown Segment

The September 20th episode of WWE SmackDown featured several intriguing storylines, but the segment between Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes drew the most attention. This segment took significant creativity to bring to life, and now, additional details have emerged about those involved behind the scenes.

As a follow-up to PW Insider’s earlier report, it’s been confirmed that the Roman Reigns-Cody Rhodes segment, which was shot in Georgia for SmackDown, involved more than just Jeremy Borash and Rob Fee. A WWE Hall of Famer also lent their expertise to the production.

While Roman Reigns referenced losing his “Wise Man” at the hands of The Bloodline, Paul Heyman was not far from the action. Multiple sources have confirmed that Heyman played a key role in directing the segment and guiding the talent involved. Given his significant role in all of Roman Reigns’ creative direction, it’s no surprise that Heyman was closely involved in this scene as well.

Even after being ejected from the Bloodline, both Paul Heyman and Roman Reigns remain pivotal figures in the ongoing saga. The Original Tribal Chief and the Wise Man continue to shape the narrative, which had fans buzzing the next morning. Now, the key players behind the segment are known.

It remains to be seen how long it will take for Paul Heyman to reinsert himself into an on-screen storyline. With his continued influence behind the scenes, the possibilities are endless for the next twists in this ever-evolving Bloodline saga.
