WWE legend Paul Heyman took a parting shot at UFC star Conor McGregor during a segment on “Monday Night Raw” as he welcomed The Vision back to the locker room.
Austin Theory, Maxxine Dupri, Bron Breakker and Logan Paul walked to the back glowing as the group embarrassed Otis and Akira Tozawa in the ring a few moments before. Heyman, who appears to be on the outs with the group, praised them for what they did.

In Heyman’s speech, he praised Paul’s recovery time.
“Now that’s what I call a vision for the future,” Heyman told the group. “Happy? Ecstatic. I’m more than proud, especially, of all of you. Bron Breakker showed everyone tonight you don’t mess around with Bron Breakker. Logan Paul is healing faster than Conor McGregor.
“You (Theory) stand by your woman, which makes me very proud of you young man. And Maxxine, wow.”
Paul has been recovering from a tricep injury he suffered earlier this year.
McGregor suffered a leg injury on Saturday night at UFC 329 when he tried to hit his opponent, Max Holloway, with a roundhouse kick. The fight was called in the first round. It was McGregor’s first fight in the Octagon in five years.
“My head gasket is gone. Destroyed,” McGregor wrote on X after the fight. “I had no injury / injuries going into the fight. I was throwing kicks, planted and jumping, all throughout camp as well as backstage before the fight. This came out of nowhere. I am beyond dark here. I can only describe it as hell.”

He added, “I was so sharp and so ready for this fight I cannot believe what has happened. The talk of me being off while walking in to the fight is nonsense. I was calm, ready, and confident. I am in shock what has taken place. The devil is literally staring at me right in front of my face here. I am not engaging. I will be at church tomorrow. I will overcome this. I will not be deterred. I will return.”
