"That's a spoiler!" - Paul Heyman confirms attendance at upcoming event
Paul Heyman has confirmed he will be attending a major event later this year. The veteran was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame earlier this year during WrestleMania weekend.
Paul Heyman has not appeared on WWE SmackDown since he was attacked by The Bloodline last month. The Wiseman refused to acknowledge Solo Sikoa as his Tribal Chief and the faction responded by slamming him through the announce table.
The Hall of Famer took to his Instagram story today to confirm that he will be appearing at The Big Event in New York in November. You can check out Heyman's Instagram story by clicking here.
"This will be, without question, the most unique appearance and fan experience in the history of The Big Event... and that's not a prediction, that's a spoiler!," her wrote.
Paul Heyman has remained loyal to Roman Reigns despite the former champion's hiatus from the company. Reigns has not appeared on WWE television since his loss to Cody Rhodes in the main event of WrestleMania XL.
Rikishi on if he wants to replace Paul Heyman on WWE SmackDown
Wrestling legend Rikishi recently explained why he would decline the option to replace Paul Heyman as Solo Sikoa's Wiseman in The Bloodline.
Rikishi is the father of The Usos and Solo Sikoa in real life. Speaking on his Off the Top podcast, the veteran disclosed that he would decline the offer to join the faction as he does not want to be on the road again. He added that he enjoys spending time with his grandchildren and that there is more to his life than professional wrestling.
"People ask would I be interested [in returning as The Wiseman]. Yeah, I guess. It makes sense. Is the scheduling gonna be [a problem], cause I don't wanna hit the road, and that would probably be the only reason why I would probably decline. There's so much to my life now than professional wrestling. My time is my time now, the second part of my life is to spend time to visit my kids, my grandkids, and it's just nice when I show up to the boys' homes," Rikishi said. [From 30:25 to 31:02]
