Paul Heyman ranks the Bloodline story as the best of all time.
Speaking with CBS Sports’ Shakiel Mahjouri (via SHAK Wrestling), Paul Heyman was asked to comment on where he would rank the Bloodline story of all the storylines in wrestling history.
“Because of the longevity that this storyline has had, I’d have to rank it number one,” Heyman said. “I mean, the money-drawing years of the Horsemen weren’t this long. The money-drawing years of the nWo wasn’t this long, the money-drawing years of Austin versus McMahon wasn’t this long. Hogan versus Savage, Hogan versus Piper, which put WrestleMania on the map. So just in terms of overall storytelling and constant web and flow of effecting other people’s environment on the roster and how they tell their stories, I’d suggest it’s the most significant. It’s the biggest money-drawing, it has the most longevity, it has held the most interest. Overall, it has done so by being the most intriguing and compelling because at every turn, you see the characters not just turn towards what the story calls for, but the long-term effects of the development of these characters and the evolution of these characters is never lost on us.
“So if something happens that changes Roman Reigns in 2022, we don’t disavow knowledge of it in 2024. It plays into what’s happening in 2024. Because of that and because we keep it consistent, I would have to rank it number one.”
