KEY POINTS

  • Roman Reigns is the undisputed WWE and Universal Champion
  • He is set to defend his titles against Logan Paul at Crown Jewel
  • The event is scheduled to take place on Nov. 5 in Riyadh

Paul Heyman has mocked Logan Paul, the next opponent of Roman Reigns, while calling the latter a "God."

Reigns has established himself as one of the most dominant figures in WWE since 2020. There is no wrestler he has lost to in that period. When WWE went on a hunt for a different opponent for the Tribal Chief, they shortlisted Paul, who signed a contract with the company back in June.

Paul has been undefeated in WWE so far. When he made his in-ring debut alongside The Miz at WrestleMania 37, he bagged a tag team victory over Rey and Dominik Mysterio. However, after Miz turned on him following the fight, he took on his former partner in singles action at SummerSlam and once again emerged triumphant.

Even though Paul has had a fine record in WWE so far, he is taking his upcoming clash with the Tribal Chief for the Undisputed WWE and Universal Championship at Crown Jewel very seriously.

Recently, WWE posted photos of Paul training with two-time WWE Hall of Famer Shawn Michaels, who is regarded as one of the most popular former WWE wrestlers and is currently the senior vice president of talent development creative at WWE NXT.

Reacting to the photos, Reigns commented that Paul would need all the help possible ahead of their upcoming fight.

"He's gonna need all the help he can get. Hopefully, he's training with God next week," wrote Reigns on Twitter.

Heyman, the special counsel for Reigns, was quick to respond to The Tribal Chief by saying that Paul cannot train with "God" next week because Reigns' calendar is full, implying that Reigns is "God."

"My #TribalChief, your opponent for #WWECrownJewel @LoganPaul
cannot train with God next week, because your calendar is full!" Heyman tweeted.

Crown Jewel 2022 is scheduled to take place on Nov. 5 in Riyadh.

Reigns reportedly has a great deal of say in his storylines, including his ongoing feud with Logan Paul. The Tribal Chief and Heyman have been working together on the Head of the Table stories, in a collaborative effort with WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H and his team, the same way they did with former WWE chairman and CEO Vince McMahon.

While Heyman will be back on WWE SmackDown this Friday in Toledo, Ohio, there are no advertisements for Reigns by the arena or the WWE events website.
