Paul Heyman uses banned word

Vince McMahon has certain rules that are to be followed without fail. One such rule was the ban on the word 'wrestling' despite WWE being World Wrestling Entertainment. The WWE Chairman reportedly did not want the term to be used on air but Paul Heyman has convinced him to change his mind.

Wrestling Observer report that Heyman has managed to get permission to use that term and that is why it is being used in the Randy Orton vs Edge feud. Here's what Dave Meltzer said:

Meltzer: The one thing is that they have to use the term wrestling which Vince used to hate, it used to be a banned term, which it is not anymore.

Alvarez: Well, now it's like a weird stipulation. So they get to use it throughout this feud but then never again.

Meltzer: Yeah but Paul Heyman loves the term wrestling.

Alvarez: Like everyone else who is a wrestling fan? Like every single f****** person on the planet is a wrestling fan except the one guy?

Meltzer: Yeah, so it's like Paul convinced him, 'Hey, for this one let's use the world wrestling but its part of the stipulation'.
