Paul Heyman Believes The WWE Has The Greatest Women’s Roster In The History Of The Industry Right Now
Paul Heyman praises the women’s roster in the WWE.
During a sit down at Bloomberg’s Power Players New York. Paul Heyman, who has been a strong advocate for the men he has managed throughout their careers was asked about the current state of women’s professional wrestling and spoke about capturing the female audience with women’s wrestling with what he calls, the greatest women’s roster in the history of the industry right now.
“I let the product speak for itself,” Heyman said while speaking at Bloomberg’s Power Players New York when asked how WWE can capture the female audience. “We have in WWE right now, what is the equivalent to when the Williams [Venus Williams and Serena Williams] sisters came onto the tennis court. We have the greatest female roster in the history of this industry and they’re not just there for sex and appeal. They are there because women in the WWE right now are the best. Ronda Rousey came to WWE to display her athletic skills. While doing it, she got a chance to also display her own persona as a character. When Ronda Rousey, who is to MMA what the Williams sisters were to tennis, comes to WWE to do that, it speaks volumes of what we’re doing. The women here are not only magnificant athletes, they have acting chops as well. You won’t find that anywhere else. You either find great actresses or great athletes. Here, you find the marriage of them both.”
Heyman has not been seen on WWE TV since he was brutally attacked and put through an announcers table at the hands of the Bloodline.
