In-Ring: Paul Heyman

The ring announcer introduces Paul Heyman. Heyman says, “Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Paul Heyman, and I am the advocate for Mr. Money in the Bank 2019 Brock Lesnar.” Heyman says it’s time to get down to business and shoot from the hip. This Sunday there is a PPV called Extreme Rules. Heyman happens to know something about the word “extreme.” The show will emanate from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Heyman happens to know a lot about extreme in Philadelphia. This Sunday at Philadelphia at Extreme Rules, his client Brock Lesnar will cash in his Money in the Bank contract against either WWE Champion Kofi Kingston or WWE Universal Champion Seth Rollins. That’s not a prediction… it’s a spoiler.

Heyman hasn’t violated a spoiler since before WrestleMania 30. If he wanted to put out some misinformation, he’s built up his credibility enough that this is the time to lie. Heyman has either given us a heads up for a historical event heading into Sunday or he’s playing head games with Rollins and Kingston. Only he knows. Well another being knows: the former and future champion Brock Lesnar. Heyman walks off.
