In case you missed it on Raw last night, Roman Reigns confronted the members of Seth Rollins’ faction — Paul Heyman, Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed. He said Heyman was no longer a wise man (and in fact a dumb ass), and that the rest of them were fooling themselves if they thought Heyman wouldn’t turn on them eventually too. This all lead to a Reigns beatdown until Jey Uso ran out to make the save. (WWE)

CM Punk talks about landing a role in Revival on SyFy: “The pandemic really changed the way everything is done. I still have yet to do a live read. I’ve never done a live audition. Everything is where I record it, there is a Zoom meeting and I send it out in the ether. It’s a frustrating part of my job because I don’t get feedback. I can’t ask questions like, ‘Should I do this differently or better?’ A lot of the jobs I’ve gotten are based on people I already know. The good relationships I already have. The Revival thing was in the works for a very long time. My agency worked very diligently to secure the role for me. I think I’m honestly the only American, not just the cast, but the entire production. We filmed this show in the middle of nowhere Halifax in a time zone I wasn’t aware existed at the time. To pull some strings and get this scrubby American on the TV show with such accomplished actors, I’m forever grateful. The process is always changing. I say no to a lot of stuff too because I don’t want to be pigeonholed. I take roles I find interesting that I can also fit into my schedule. I’m not trying to peace out for six months and disappear off WWE television unless it’s the right role. So far everything has been pretty fluid and smooth and has worked.”
