“I told him that if I was on his side, there would be nothing that I couldn’t do in this business. And then he chuckled, and he laughed at me and he politely rejected my offer, and then he told me, ‘Joe, you don’t need me. You don’t need anyone. The only thing you need to do is do it for yourself, to believe in yourself. He said the moment that you do that, you will need for nothing; you will have the world in the palm of your hand.'”
Roman Reigns could not stop praising Paul Heyman and even admitted that there is no Tribal Chief without the Wise Man –“I don’t care how his character is presented, he’s a good man. No, he’s a great man. No, he’s a mensch.”

He showed his respect for Roman Reigns during a recent interview withSports Illustratedand claimed that the wrestler can fit into any era. He described the 38-year-old as the“most innovative, transformative, disruptive superstar”WWE has ever seen.
