WWE veteran details why he can't take Paul Heyman seriously after SmackDown return (Exclusive)

Former WWE head writer Vince Russo recently spoke about Paul Heyman's return to SmackDown last night. The Wiseman showed up with the fifth member of Team Roman.

The OTC and the rest of the Original Bloodline's search for the fifth member ahead of the Men's WarGames Match concluded last night. During the show's final segment, Paul Heyman showed up and announced that he didn't come alone. The veteran proceeded to introduce CM Punk as the fifth member of Team Roman.

During the latest episode of BroDown with Mac Davis, Russo pointed out that Paul Heyman looked like he had spent time on a tanning bed. The former WWE writer couldn't take The Wiseman's return seriously because of how different the 59-year-old looked from the last time he was on TV.

"Bro, I can't take a 60-something-year-old seriously who's been lying in a freaking tanning bed all week. Paul, stop! 60-year-olds don't lay [sic] in freaking tanning beds!" he said. [From 32:55 onwards]

Meanwhile, CM Punk is all set to join Roman Reigns and the OG Bloodline at Survivor Series: WarGames. This addition has seemingly given Team Roman immense momentum heading into the event.

That said, it will be interesting to see if two huge stars like Roman and Punk remain on the same page during the match.
