Paul Heyman: Roman Reigns Would’ve Been The Greatest Star In The Industry Regardless Of What Era He Was In

Paul Heyman has high praise for Roman Reigns.

Heyman has been aligned with Reigns since 2020, when both stars decided to form a partnership that would change both of their careers. Heyman has been alongside Reigns for his current run where he has held at least one singles championship since August 2020. 

While appearing on a recent episode of The Rich Eisen Show, Heyman was asked if Reigns could’ve been a star in any generation of WWE.

“Roman Reigns would be the greatest star in the industry no matter what generation he came across.”

Heyman then went on tell the story of how he first met Reigns when he was only three years old, noting that he even had charisma at that age.

“I first met Roman Reigns when he was three years old, and his father brought him into the locker room in Panama City, Florida and even at three years old, he had so much charisma. I thought he was going to become a child actor like Ron Howard or whomever. Roman had so much charisma even at three years old just shaking your hand and you look into those piercing eyes and you say, oh my god, this kid is a star and he’s three years old. He had that intangible it factor, you just knew you were in the presence of someone or something special, even though it’s a three year old kid running around.”

Elsewhere in the interview, Heyman suggested that The Bloodline’s story could go into extra innings. Fans can learn more here.
