* He considers every segment he's involved in as an audition to come back the next Monday.

* Heyman found out at 5 AM on Tuesday morning that Brock Lesnar was re-signing with WWE. He said the deal got done really late Monday night. Lesnar was MMA bound, and it wasn't a secret.

* Heyman doesn't think Bellator will ever be in a position to outbid the UFC.

* Lesnar had a financial figure and provisions in mind that would have kept him with WWE.

* He's asked about his marketing agency Looking For Larry. He said it's doing well and they've been picking up staffing.
