Paul Heyman feels LeBron James would not be recognized outside the United States
Paul Heyman asserted during an interview on The Masked Man Show with Kaz that he thinks WWE Superstars are more well-liked throughout the world than athletes like LeBron James.
“If LeBron James walks down the street in Paris or Rome, he could pretty much not get (bothered), it would be like Justin Bieber walking down the street.
