Heyman called Bischoff’s induction as long overdue and well earned and congratulated his entry into it. However, he went on to point out that off the the three men that ruled wrestling in the 90’s, he was the only who still regularly featured on television.
“I would like to add, however, that if you look back in history – and I don’t do that often – that the 1990s in this industry were ruled by Eric Bischoff, Paul Heyman, and Vincent Kennedy McMahon, and only one of us is still relevant enough to be on television each and every week. On top… in the main event of WrestleMania… with the biggest star in the industry… the champ, Roman Reigns. Next!”
