Paul Heyman didn’t stay silent for long after Braun Strowman roasted him on Twitter—and his response was pure Paul Heyman.
The exchange started when Strowman called out Heyman for claiming on WWE Raw that Roman Reigns had “never been beaten so badly he had to be stretchered out.” Strowman fired back with brutal receipts from their 2017 feud, posting screenshots of the infamous backstage beatdown where he destroyed Reigns and flipped an ambulance. Along with the pictures, Strowman wrote:
“yea ok Oswald Cobblepot!!”
The Penguin reference didn’t go unnoticed—and on October 8, Paul Heyman responded with a message dripping in sarcasm and condescension. Addressing Strowman directly, Heyman wrote:
“Dear Mr. Strowman,
Your post was brought to my attention. I have nothing negative to say about you, nor to you sir. In fact, I am actually relieved and indeed celebratory to learn you’re still alive, something most of us didn’t realize and even fewer cared about.
With Love and Respect,
Paul Heyman.”
Heyman’s tweet instantly reignited the online feud. The two have a long history, as Heyman was once aligned with Roman Reigns when Strowman was one of his fiercest rivals. Now, years later, both men are back in the headlines thanks to a sarcastic jab that only Heyman could pull off.
Paul Heyman’s biting response proves he hasn’t lost a step when it comes to verbal warfare. Whether it’s in the ring, behind the scenes, or online, Heyman continues to master the art of humiliation with a few perfectly chosen words. Strowman might have started this one, but Heyman’s reply just reminded everyone why he’s still one of the sharpest talkers in wrestling today.
