Ahead of Roman Reigns vs. Bronson Reed at Crown Jewel 2025, Paul Heyman talked about how The Vision destroyed the OTC at Clash in Paris. The Oracle claimed that he had never seen someone attack Reigns the way Reed and Bron Breakker did in France.

Heyman's comments did not sit well with Braun Strowman, and he took to X/Twitter to highlight that he did something similar to Roman during their rivalry. The Monster of All Monsters also took a shot at Heyman, calling him "Oswald Cobblepot." The WWE Hall of Famer later replied to Braun, claiming that he didn't know the star was even alive and believed no one cared about him anymore.

"I keep getting this tweeting with Paul Heyman. I never even talked about Paul or acknowledged Paul. I don’t know why he got so upset and came at me (…) Especially because he gets to see my face every commercial break on SmackDown, and let’s be for real, if anybody knows about me having a show about ordering everything on the menu, you think Paul would know," he said.

Strowman added that his comments weren't intentional, before saying that Paul Heyman was "just sensitive" and he probably missed him in WWE.

"I have no idea [why Heyman wrote what he did about me]. I guess I struck a nerve or something. I don’t know. I didn’t deliberately, intentionally mean to talk to him or any of that stuff. I don’t know what’s going on, and maybe he’s just sensitive or something, or maybe he misses me. That’s probably what it is. I think the ratings are struggling a little bit, and they realize that when The Monster’s on TV, he draws ratings, so who knows?" he added.

"Don’t believe the stuff you hear on these dirt sheets, because none of them are true. You’ll see me when I feel like letting you see me when it comes to that. But I’m really focused right now on the food space. I’ve got four movies that I’m attached to next year. I’m in talks with four or five other television shows."
