Paul Heyman turned on Roman Reigns and CM Punk at WrestleMania 41 Saturday, aligning with Seth Rollins.
Heyman appeared on The Pat McAfee Show and was asked by Michael Cole about what he did.
The two men had the following exchange:
Cole: I want to know how much Seth Rollins paid you to pull off what happened on Saturday night.
Heyman: About a dollar less than Vince McMahon used to pay you to be JR's [Jim Ross] lackey. I'm sorry, were you going to the lowest bidder back then? Never saw you jump to WCW.
Cole: Never.
Heyman: I don't see you going to Jacksonville anytime soon.
Cole: Nope.
Heyman: So you're staying with the highest bidder, right? So you're just like the hooker on Las Vegas Boulevarde.
Going to Jacksonville is a reference to AEW, which is based in Jacksonville, Florida as Shad Khan owns the Jacksonville Jaguars. Tony Khan runs AEW.
Paul Heyman COOKED Michael Cole!
