Paul Heyman riles up WWE crowd in Philly with taunt about 49ers' Brock Purdy

The Cowboys are public enemy No. 1 in Philadelphia, but there's no brotherly gratitude for the 49ers there. The mere mention of Brock Purdy was viciously booed at a WWE show in Philly on Monday evening.

In an episode of "Monday Night Raw," Paul Heyman riled up a Philadelphia crowd during a segment on the mic. Basically, his stable, The Bloodline, was holding a trial over whether a member, Sami Zayn, was loyal enough. When presenting his case as the "prosecution," Heyman said the alleged traitor had simply been using the stable.

"He has been leading us on to feel good about ourselves, to feel good about how much he belongs in The Bloodline," Heyman said.
