Paul Heyman was recently considered a possibility for a potential promo battle with Stephen A. Smith amidst rumors of the legendary ESPN commentator making an appearance in WWE.
The Advocate addressed the hypothetical scenario on social media, claiming that Smith is nowhere near his league. He wrote:
“1 – I’m not a manager. I’m #SpecialCounsel to the #TribalChief @WWERomanReigns 2 – @stephenasmith is not in my league. He’s a screaming voice crying out for attention from the Ocean of Obscurity. I, on the other hand, reside on the Island of Relevancy!”

Stephen A. Smith has since responded to the tweet by joking that he would’ve come for Heyman’s job if he weren’t too busy.
“What? What did you say @HeymanHustle. Land of obscurity! You’re very lucky I’m busy otherwise I’d have to come take your job, and show the fellas what REAL representation should look like in the @WWE. Haa!!!. Only kidding buddy. Love your work. But I AM coming one of these days.”

While it’s too early to say for sure, this could possibly be the beginning of Smith’s WrestleMania angle.
