Paul Heyman says he is “so proud” of WWE ahead of return to live events

Paul Heyman says he is “so proud” of WWE ahead of return to live events. This week’s episode of SmackDown will be the first in over a year to feature a live audience.

WWE is all set to return to performing in front of a live crowd this week with SmackDown in front of fans in Houston, Texas.. This will be their first weekly show with an audience in attendance since the March 9, 2020 episode of WWE RAW.

“I would be remiss if I didn’t stand on a soapbox and proclaim from the top of the mountain top how proud I am to be part of WWE because we never missed a week of programming. Not one. The entire world just went through a zombie apocalypse. We never missed one week of TV, and I am profoundly, infinitely proud of that fact.”

“I would also be a liar if I didn’t say to you, man, I miss the live crowd. I so miss standing in front of a live arena and feeling that live feedback from that audience, and I am salivating at the chance to do so this Friday.”


Paul Heyman was out of the WWE television for a while after Lesnar left the promotion. He eventually returned to their weeklyprogramming as Roman Reigns’ special counsel. The two have since struck an entertaining partnership that doesn’t look like it’ll end anytime soon.

Archie is a WWE and UFC Editor/Author at the SportsRush. Like most combat sports enthusiasts, his passion for watching people fight began with WWE when he witnessed a young Brock Lesnar massacre Hulk Hogan back in 2002. This very passion soon branched out to boxing and mixed martial arts. Over the years he fell in love with the theatrics that preceded the bell and the poetic carnage that followed after. Each bruise a story to tell, each wound a song of struggle, his greatest desire is to be there to witness it all. His favorite wrestler is Shawn Michaels and he believes that GSP is the greatest to ever step foot inside the octagon. Apart from wrestling, he is also fond of poetry and music.
