Paul Heyman mocks WWE employee ahead of RAW
WWE announced today that Paul Heyman will be the headliner of the 2024 Hall of Fame class. The wrestling pioneer has just reacted to a congratulatory message with a fitting remark.
The Wise Man has received numerous comments from fans and colleagues today. The person who made the aforementioned message is an on-air personality who often gets heat from the WWE Universe - Sam Roberts.
Roberts took to his Instagram Stories today to post a throwback photo with the member of The Bloodline. He congratulated Heyman on the Hall of Fame induction and commented on how The Advocate supported him years before he was hired by the company.
"Mazel to a guy who propped me up from the VERY beginning. Whether he would admit it or not... The HOFer & GOAT - @paulheyman," Roberts wrote.
Heyman re-posted Roberts' post to his Instagram Stories and joked about how it was a mistake to support the longtime radio host.
"EVEN I MAKE TERRIBLE MISTAKES! THAT'S THE HAPS!," Heyman wrote.
Roberts, who is a lifelong wrestling fan, was hired for his first Kickoff panel appearance at Roadblock: End of The Line in December 2016. He has worked with the company in similar roles ever since.
