Paul Heyman has finally chimed in on the Monday Night Wars just hours before they begin.

On whether he’ll be on the TNA or WWE show tonight:
Let’s get one thing out of the way, just so we can focus on the big picture: I’m not involved in tonight’s Monday Night Wrestling head-to-head programming

On what Spike TV’s true motivation is:
Here’s the poop, at least from my perspective: SpikeTV’s Doug Herzog and Kevin Kay smell blood. And that blood they smell is the bleeding caused by the erosion of Raw’s fan base. Slowly but surely, Raw’s core audience is getting older and older, and the indescribably-important “youth audience” is not being replenished

He didn’t say much on his own role, but you can read the whole thing at Heyman Hustle
