Paul Heyman accompanied CM Punk to the ring for the main event of WrestleMania 41, but left with Seth Rollins.
During the match, Heyman low-blowed Punk and Roman Reigns, aligning with Rollins.
"My savior did not resurrect himself on Easter Sunday. He couldn't because he was put down on Saturday and there was no resurrection, benediction, or absolution in the life of the Tribal Chief Roman Reigns. There couldn't be. Let's be clear about this, I didn't betray Roman Reigns. Did I put my hands on Roman Reigns and shove him down to the canvas in front of millions of people? I didn't touch Roman Reigns. What did I do? I got shoved to the canvas. I got emasculated in front of the WWE Universe by my Tribal Chief. I pleaded with him. My best friend did a favor. Saved Roman Reigns' family. CM Punk, not much of a best friend, look at the position he put me in. What a compromising position CM Punk put me in against my own Tribal Chief. What kind of best friend was CM Punk? A lousy best friend. A shitty best friend," Heyman stated on The Pat McAfee Show.
"I was loyal to CM Punk. I brought him back after Hell in a Cell. I gave him a spotlight. I gave him a chance to redeem himself with Roman Reigns. He puts me in this impossible, emotional, compromising position that was an absolute no win. Not only was it a no win, it was a must lose with my Tribal Chief Roman Reigns. That's my best friend?" he questioned.
Asked when the alignment when Rollins came to fruition, Heyman said when he handed him the steel chair.
Rollins hit Reigns with the chair and then delivered a stomp to pin Reigns in the main event of WrestleMania 41 Saturday.
