The former Kassius Ohno tells the funny story of Paul Heyman reacting to the Sami Zayn/Cesaro 2-out-of-3-falls match from last summer.

I had a similar reaction when I initially saw this match last year. My eyes were just glued to my TV. While I know somebody is going to ask why Paul Heyman was there. The reason is the day the Sami Zayn/Antonio Cesaro 2-out-of-3-falls was taped coincided with the opening of the WWE Performance Center.

I feel like Paul handpicked Cesaro to be a Heyman guy after seeing this.

Heyman has done promo training with them down there, and he has been on NXT a number of times. |

Hero's shoot is fantastic if anyone is interested. It's long but he has a lot of great things to say about his time in NXT and about his road with WWE. He's a positive guy, so don't expect any burials so to speak, but he kind of touches on everything. The guy has such a crazy universal background of the wrestling business. I hope he can make it back. With NXT getting more exposure, he would have been the perfect veteran type of guy to have around. Just hurts me as a fan that he didn't make it to the main roster though.
Hero also tells a lead in to that story where he emailed Paul Heyman a couple times to meet for lunch and never got a response back. Then, when he actually meets Heyman for the first time, Heyman says something to the effect of "I owe you an email, don't I" haha.
But yeah, the match with Cesaro and Zayn was incredible and shouldn't really shock anyone based on their previous work. That's likely the moment that led to what we are seeing on TV right now.

But did you know his client, Brock Lesnar, ended The Undertaker's WrestleMania undefeated streak?

Meh, I think Cesaro would've been fine without Heyman

That is fantastic. He is so right about that last spot. Cesaros likely the only man who could've saved that. Damn I wish hero got a main roster shot too.
