You simply do not interrupt a Paul Heyman promo
This week on RAW, Paul Heyman regaled us with 5 reasons why AJ Styles vs. Brock Lesnar will be a must watch match, come Survivor Series 2017. During his promo, the audience chanted 'she said yes', obviously referring to a proposal in the audience.

Heyman wasted no time, and silenced the crowd, as only he can. His response went viral on social media, as people heralded him as the greatest promo ever.
This social media interaction is a good indicator of how Heyman keeps his promo skills up to speed, even today:
Proposal in the crowd? @HeymanHustle doesn't care, he'll cut you down either way. Best man in the biz on the mic, no contest. I could listen to him cut promos all day. Wonder what Heyman would've said if you told him 20 years ago he'd be doing his best work now? #GOAT
I always knew it would take a long long long long long long long time to hone this craft. You never stop learning in this (or any other) business. Just for the record, I'm just getting started! @WWE@BrockLesnar#SurvivorSerieshttps://t.co/xgsftQ7hOd
How great is it to see that Heyman is a man who hones his craft, even to this day. No wonder then, that he is the best promo in the business. We're certain that his best sports entertainment promo is yet to come.
