Paul Heyman has praised WWE’s current women’s division, calling it the most talented group of female performers ever assembled.
Speaking to VGC’s Chris Scullion, Paul Heyman was asked about his involvement with Jordynne Grace in WWE 2K26 and whether she could be considered the first “Paul Heyman Girl.” While he spoke highly of Grace, he made it clear he would not single out one name, given the depth of talent across the roster.
“I’m a big fan of Jordynne Grace, but to say that there is a female in the locker room today that should be the first Paul Heyman Girl… would be a slight to the other women in this locker room,” Heyman said.
Heyman then expanded on his view of the division as a whole, describing the current roster as unmatched in the history of wrestling and beyond.
“There has never been a time… that there has been such a ridiculously talented roster of females under one roof at the same time,” he said.

“Jordynne Grace was the choice of 2K26, a splendid choice,” he said. “What a magnificent athlete and performer.”
While discussing his in-game role, Heyman added that he would be honoured to work with a number of talents in WWE 2K26, reinforcing his belief that the current women’s roster stands apart from any other in wrestling or sports entertainment history.
