Celtics' Jaylen Brown Trolled by WWE's Paul Heyman Over Seth Rollins vs. Bron Breakker

Legendary WWE manager Paul Heyman knows ball.

Heyman appeared Wednesday on First Take to hype up Saturday's Backlash premium live event, where client Bron Breakker will battle Seth Rollins. While emphatically predicting victory for Breakker, he took a shot at Boston Celtics star Jaylen Brown.

"By the time Bron Breakker is done with Seth Rollins at Backlash, Seth Rollins will have more excuses to offer than Jaylen Brown," he said (via Fightful's Corey Brennan).

The NBA fined Brown on Tuesday after he criticized the officiating in Boston's first-round series loss to the Philadelphia 76ers.

Appearing on a Twitch stream following the Celtics' Game 7 defeat, the five-time All-Star claimed the refs "clearly had an agenda." He also asserted that "flopping has ruined our league," referencing what he believes is the propensity from Philadelphia 76ers star Joel Embiid to exaggerate contact.

Heyman's remarks on First Take underline how Brown opened himself up to some mockery in the wake of his Twitch stream.
