Paul Heyman viewed Mike Knox as a possible ECW champion

CM Punk fans have no doubt heard on numerous occasions throughout the years how his friendship with Paul Heyman held him back early on in his career in WWE, with Vince McMahon & Co. rejecting multiple Punk storylines that were pitched by Heyman.

However, Bruce revealed that the guy Heyman originally pushed hard for during his time in charge of the ECW reboot was Mike Knox, a member of the ‘extreme’ brand between 2006 and 2008, but Vince wasn’t convinced by his abilities and he was sent back to Deep South Wrestling just seven months after his ECW debut.
