Paul Heyman isn’t hiding his true feelings when it comes to AJ Lee and Becky Lynch.
WWE Hall of Famer Paul Heyman was a recent guest on ESPN’s First Take. When asked if he’ll be present at ringside this weekend as Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch take on CM Punk and AJ Lee, Heyman said he’s not overly worried about it either way, as he doesn’t believe Lee is in the same league as Lynch.
“I’m always comfortable ringside with Seth Freakin Rollins,” Paul Heyman said. “Maybe the strategy calls for me to be elsewhere at that moment. Maybe the strategy calls me to be ringside at the moment. I actually think this is a complete misuse of CM Punk’s family, to be very honest with you.
“I don’t think AJ Lee is in the league of the greatest women’s wrestler of all time, Becky Lynch. The first woman to ever main event WrestleMania and win, by the way. She won the match. Didn’t just main event it; she won the match against Ronda Rousey and Charlotte Flair. I think it should simply be Seth Rollins versus CM Punk, and the loser keeps AJ Lee.”
