WWE Hall of Famer Paul Heyman caused one of the greatest WrestleMania shockers of all time on Saturday’s main event.
Heyman, 59, linked up with CM Punk on the closing match of WrestleMania 41 during night one of the wrestling extravaganza at the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.

Punk took on Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns in a heated Triple Threat Match that saw the famous manager cutting a very conflicted figure at ringside.
That is because the ECW legend had been aligned with Reigns for the past five years and was a catalyst behind his recent four-year world title reign that made him the longest-reigning champion of the modern era.
However, Heyman reunited with The Best in the World, who cashed in on a favor that was owed to him when he helped Reigns’ team win at Survivor Series in November and asked The Wiseman to link up with him again at Mania after 11 years.
All three wrestlers were knocked down during the closing stages of the match.
That was when Heyman grabbed a steel chair and was spotted by both Punk and Reigns, who asked him to help them in the No Disqualification Match.
The ex-SmackDown General Manager handed the chair to Punk but turned on him with a Low Blow just when he was ready to whack Reigns with the foreign object.
Just when it looked like The Wiseman had reunited with Reigns he did the exact same thing to him.
Heyman then handed the chair to Rollins who hit The Tribal Chief on the back and finished him off with a Curb Stomp for the three count.
The live WrestleMania crowd watched in shock as it became clear The Advocate had betrayed both of his legendary clients to join forces with The Visionary.
Heyman went on to raise Rollins’ hand in front of the 60-plus-thousand WWE fans in attendance who couldn’t believe what they had just witnessed.
As the two new partners left the ring, Reigns and Punk were left watching in absolute shock before the broadcast came to an end.
