Paul Heyman has been a part of The Bloodline for a long time. After Roman Reigns lost his title to Cody Rhodes, Solo Sikoa seemingly took over the role of The Tribal Chief. A few weeks later, at Madison Square Garden, Solo Sikoa, Jacob Fatu, and Tama Tonga Powerbombed The Wiseman through a table.
During that segment, The Wiseman’s face seemed to be a bit puffed up. He had bags under his eyes and had a grey beard.
Why did Paul Heyman do the segment?
While speaking to Logan Paul on his Impaulsive podcast, Paul Heyman opened up about the segment.
“Why I did it is because that’s what the story needed. Why I did it, personally, is because I’m not that good of an actor. I’m not. I have to rely on helping myself get through the presentation so people look and go, ‘This dude is really stressed out,'” [H/T Fightful.com]
Paul Heyman on how he prepared for the segment
“If I had a good night’s rest, and I had a nice meal in the morning and I got a little sweat going in the afternoon and I warmed up and I’m clean shaven and my suit fits perfectly, and you just feel right walking out there in Madison Square Garden going, ‘I’m (Frank) Sinatra. I feel great.’ That’s hard to cry. But if I’ve been up for an entire night or a night and a half. If I got 90 minutes of sleep and I intentionally woke myself up. Didn’t shave for several days. Didn’t wash my hair for several days. Little more grey grows in. Took the stuff that washes the dye out of your hair so that more grey is showing.
“I wanted the aging process for a week to be really defined. Ate like shit the whole week. Stuff that would upset my stomach. I intentionally ate things that I knew (would upset me). If there are spices that don’t agree with you, I ate those, just so that my skin color was off. Wore no makeup. Intentionally wore a suit that didn’t fit me as well. I wanted people to go, ‘You’re okay, right?’ Therefore, it wasn’t difficult for me. When it’s time for me to say, ‘You’re not my Tribal Chief,’ and I’m in tears, and I’m bawling, it’s easy for me because I’m worn out. I feel awful. I just feel like crap out there, but you have the adrenaline rush because we could feel the audience was with us,” Paul Heyman said.
