Paul Heyman is a nervous wreck around Solo Sikoa, according to former WWE manager

Former WWE manager Jim Cornette recently spoke about how Solo Sikoa's hostile takeover is affecting Paul Heyman.

In the weeks after WrestleMania, Solo Sikoa has taken command of The Bloodline in the absence of Roman Reigns. He eliminated Jimmy Uso from the faction and then added Tama Tonga to the mix. He even ensured that Heyman could not report anything to Roman by destroying his phone on SmackDown.

In a recent clip from the Jim Cornette Experience, the veteran mentioned that The Wiseman was in a bad position after Reigns' departure. He pointed out that Paul was nervous around Tama Tonga because he didn't know the man. Cornette claimed that Heyman was doing a great job of selling the fact that Solo was taking over The Bloodline.

"There's Paul looking like he's sh*tting himself. He's nervous, he doesn't know what this guy is. An unknown quantity, he's a wild card, he could kill me at any minute. He's nervous around Solo, he's disturbed. He's doing this very well." [From 00:12 to 00:28]

Paul Heyman was on SmackDown this week

It was a tough night for Paul Heyman as WWE kicked off the Draft this week on SmackDown. The Wiseman informed the fans that Roman Reigns had voluntarily withdrawn his name from the draft.

Later, Solo Sikoa and Tama Tonga rolled up to SmackDown. Solo asked Paul Heyman which brand The Bloodline had been drafted. Paul claimed that none of the brands had drafted the faction until then.

This angered Solo and he ordered The Wiseman to fix things immediately. This led to the stable being drafted to SmackDown in the third round.

Solo and Tama also got involved in a brawl with Kevin Owens. Randy Orton also joined the chaos, and all four men had to be separated by security officials.
