McPherson tried to easy issues over by making it clear that he was joking because it was a Friday night time, however Heyman was clearly not within the temper for jokes.
McPherson mentioned all of us want some comedian aid from the Juan Soto sweepstakes, however sadly, it was a tricky crowd and McPherson apologized instantly after Heyman hung up on him.
As if the vacations aren’t anxious sufficient, having to hold tooth and nail on one participant chasing a $1 billion contract from the richest groups within the sport whereas all of your friends are combating over the identical story needs to be an disagreeable working expertise.
Hopefully, these two could make up and Heyman can come again on WFAN someday.
