Paul Heyman Says CBS Should’ve Kept ‘The Late Show’ And Given It To Him
On July 17, CBS announced that it would end The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and retire the franchise altogether in May 2026 after 33 years.
Paul Heyman isn’t a fan of this move.
“I think it’s the dumbest move CBS has ever made. Why? They fired Stephen Colbert and they canceled the show. CBS should’ve kept the show, renamed it the Late Show starring Paul Heyman. Could you imagine every night, except for Mondays when I’m on Raw, ‘Ladies and Gentlemen, my name is Paul Heyman. Welcome to The Late Show.’ If CBS wants ratings, call me,” Heyman told TMZ.
Your move, CBS.
Heyman is set to corner Bronson Reed & Bron Breakker when they take on Roman Reigns & Jey Uso at WWE SummerSlam. Fans can check out the lineup for the show here.
