The on again/off again WWE relationship with Paul Heyman seems to continue. Incase you didn't read the SmackDown! taping results from last night, the former ECW owner was not there and was of course left off of the show.

It is unknown at this time why they didn't use him on this week's show, although he is not scheduled to appear at the Judgment Day PPV this weekend either. Some sources say that it is best to not use him at all if they aren't going to use him to the full extent of his abilities.
