Paul Heyman praised CM Punk during last night’s live ECW Exposed special on the WWE Network. Heyman was talked about stars that he wanted in ECW and said he wanted to build the 2006 version around Punk. A photo of Punk was shown and Heyman said Punk would have done very well in the original ECW.
The Miami Herald’s Scott Fishman pointed this out on Twitter:
“Paul Heyman with the chutzpah to mention CM Punk on #WWE TV and stand behind his opinion that he is #BestInTheWorld. #ECWExposed”
Heyman replied:
“@smFISHMAN I praised @CMPunk LIVE ON RAW in Chicago when he and @WWE had just parted ways. #BITW Now, Then, 4ever!”
