Paul Heyman recently spoke to Bleacher Report to talk about WrestleMania 32 and more. You can check out the full interview here along with some highlights below.
Brock Lesnar is set to face off against Dean Ambrose in a street fight at WrestleMania 32, but it’s never too early to start thinking about Brock’s post-WrestleMania plans. Heyman was asked who he thinks Brock will be feuding with after WrestleMania and he brought up the fact that Brock Lesnar has some unfinished business with The Wyatt Family.
“There is certainly unfinished business with the Wyatt Family, which will be addressed when Brock Lesnar feels like it, at his whim, at his leisure, and convenience and at his pleasure as well. Obviously, the goal for Brock Lesnar is always to be the reigning, and here’s the key word defending, undisputed WWE Heavyweight Champion of the world so whomever comes out of the Triple H versus Roman Reigns match for the title is going to have Brock Lesnar breathing down their neck.”
Paul Heyman was the visionary who created ECW and he was also asked about Lucha Underground being compared to his creation. Heyman noted that he’s a big Lucha Underground fan, and he commended the brand for doing their own thing.
“Oh I’m a huge fan of Lucha Underground. I hate labeling anything the next ECW. I would hope that Lucha Underground’s desire is to become the first Lucha Underground. I’m flattered by their praise. I think the comparison works on some levels, but the landscape is so different today than it was in the 1990s to compare the two movements in and of themselves. To me it leaves something to be desired because I don’t think Lucha Underground is done any favors by being compared to a promotion that hasn’t been around for 15 years. I think Lucha Underground has carved it’s own niche and in that they deserve a ton of credit.”
