3) Paul Heyman’s Feelings About Shayna Baszler
According to a report from WrestlingNews.co, Paul Heyman is said to be very high on Shayna Baszler. That is why Shayna was booked so strongly at the Elimination Chamber PPV.
Here is an excerpt from the report:
The feeling going into the pay-per-view was that everyone watching at home already knew that Baszler was going to win and challenge Lynch at WrestleMania and it was better to just have her go through everyone to put her over as a monster heel. Heyman is very high on Baszler even though McMahon has had his doubts about her.
My Take:
- Imagine Shayna Baszler as a Paul Heyman girl? That could be a fun route to go if Brock Lesnar takes a ton of time off from WWE. Or, Imagine a stable of Brock and Shayna together?
2) Vince McMahon Made A Rare Appearance At Smackdown
According to a report from Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful Select (subscribe here), Vince McMahon was backstage at Smackdown last week.
This is said to be a rare thing as he hasn’t shown up much at Smackdown since Thanksgiving:
Vince McMahon was at this past week’s Smackdown. He rarely showed up there after Thanksgiving.
My Take:
- This makes sense as Vince is likely really busy with the XFL.
