<blockquote class='quote\\_blockquote'><dl><dt>Quote:</dt><dd> </dd></dl><div>During a recent interview with DigitalSpy.com to promote Sunday's WWE Payback pay-per-view, WWE TV personality Paul Heyman commented on Dixie Carter recently tweeting that she'd like to do a TNA vs. WWE pay-per-view event. Heyman understands where she's coming from, but thinks WWE would be crazy to work with TNA.
"I'm sure that Dixie Carter would love to do a WWE versus TNA PPV. Why wouldn't she? A friend of mine who has way too much time on his hands just started a new beverage company here in the United States... He would like to do a global promotion with Coca-Cola. I don't suggest that Coca-Cola would be profitable having to do a global co-promotion with Shmuley's Soda Company. In the same way it would make no sense for WWE with 95% global share to do an event with TNA with its 5% global market share!"
Heyman also responded to whether CM Punk is the best wrestler he's ever worked with:
"Well, that's a very interesting question. CM Punk is the best in the world and he is the longest-reigning WWE Champion of the past 25 years. His goals are to be recognized as the best in the world, so on that basis, yes. Brock Lesnar has different goals from CM Punk, and Brock Lesnar achieves his goals with me, together, as a unit."
"So I could not honestly state that CM Punk's success is any greater than Brock Lesnar's success. Nor could I state that Brock Lesnar's success supersedes CM Punk's. These are individuals with dramatically different goals and they both achieve them." [/quote]
