Video: Paul Heyman

Jackie says you cannot talk about the best of 2023 without mentioning Roman Reigns.  Peter says Roman is a Mount Rushmore level talent and he says that there are two words to describe him and they are Acknowledge Me.  Jackie says Paul Heyman says that what we have seen is just a drop in the bucket.

Paul Heyman says we need to take a moment to properly acknowledge Roman Reigns in his 1,212th day as champion.  He has dominated for three years as the man alone on top of WWE.  Looking back, what a monumental 365 days the leader of the Bloodline has had.  He solved KO at Royal Rumble.  He took care of Sami Zayn in Montreal.  He ended the story of The American Nightmare.  He showed who the true Crown Jewel is.  He took care of the ungrateful former right hand man to show that Roman sits at the head of the table.  Anyone who stood up to Roman Reigns and his Bloodline fell in 2023, including a 16 time world champion at the hands of the tribal heir Solo Sikoa.

Paul says he offers spoilers for the next twelve months.  There will be no challengers unseating the true GOAT of sports entertainment.  He does not care if you are Phenomenal, a Legend Killer, or someone who likes to say Yeah.  Paul says he wants to present everyone an important reminder that 2024 is a leap year so we get an extra day to acknowledge Roman Reigns.

Peter brings up Brock Lesnar and his issues with Cody.  Cody says he learned that he doesn’t want to go back to Suplex City.  He was able to do something surreal by beating Brock two times.  He says he has had one thing in mind when he came back but others have curveballs on his road to that point.  Jackie asks Cody if he has a favorite moment from 2023.  Cody says he has some unbelievable memories in 2023.  Winning the Royal Rumble was a big moment, but another top moment was the post match press conference after Fastlane when they won the tag titles.
