ECW Week officialy started on WWE Network on November 10, 2014 with the live ECW Exposed special after Raw. Paul Heyman started talking in his highly entertaining style and talked about the superstars that he wished to be part of ECW in 2006 and also revealed about how he wanted to build the event around CM Punk.
The Daily wrestling news reported that Paul Heyman was asked which wrestlers, from the ones who got big after 2001 when ECW closed down as a separate body, could have been huge superstars in his old company.
The creative visionary behind ECW, didn’t shy away from taking the name of his former client and the creator of the expression “Paul Heyman guy”, CM Punk, although the former WWE champion is not part of Neyman’s employers, WWE.
The Miami Herald pro wrestling writer Scott Fishman applauded Heyman on Twitter with a tweet:
“Paul Heyman with the chutzpah to mention CM Punk on #WWE TV and stand behind his opinion that he is #BestInTheWorld. #ECWExposed”
and Heyman replied back to that :
“@smFISHMAN I praised @CMPunk LIVE ON RAW in Chicago when he and @WWE had just parted ways. #BITW Now, Then, 4ever!”
