8 WWE Superstars Who Could Be Paul Heyman’s Next Client

2) Roman Reigns

I think if you were to ask fans who they want to see as Paul Heyman’s next client, Roman Reigns’ name would come up a lot. Roman as a Paul Heyman guy seems to be an idea that has been pitched for a few years now but has never come to fruition.

Now, it seems like the table is set for Heyman to potentially turn on Brock to help Roman win the Universal Championship. The idea behind this would be to go full steam ahead with a Roman Reigns heel turn, with Paul Heyman as his advocate. I don’t think that Reigns necessarily needs Heyman but like I have said before, I think it could really help elevate him. The dynamic would be fun and I think a lot of fans would love to see a full-blown heel version of Roman Reigns.

I am not sure if WWE would ever pull the trigger but I think it would be pretty great. It seems as if it would be one of the more likely options.

1) Ronda Rousey

When creating this list, a name that instantly came to mind was Ronda Rousey. Ronda has proved in a short period of time that she is damn good at this pro-wrestling thing and has some massive potential.

The one knock on Ronda would be her promos. Paul Heyman being her advocate seems like a perfect fit. Heyman could take the pressure off Ronda when it comes to having to cut promos on a weekly basis.

The transition for Heyman from Brock to Ronda would be seamless. The MMA connection between Brock and Ronda is an obvious link, with both of them being former UFC Champions. Heyman’s gimmick would essentially stay the same, hyping Ronda up as the “baddest Woman on the planet”. He would also still make a few UFC jokes here and there.

To me, Ronda as a Paul Heyman girl has money written all over it. I am not sure if WWE will pull the trigger but it seems like a fun idea to me.

  1. I don’t think it should be Ronda. Too much like Brock. I would love for it to be Asuka especially if she is more NXT cocky, dangerous, and serious heel Asuka with the occasional Japanese outbursts. I don’t think Roman should be the next Heyman guy. He should just be a heel. Imagine him after winning the title at SS coming to a loud booing crowd (you know it’s going to be like Raw after Mania) and he just tells the crowd f#$k you and speaks from the heart about the years of hatred towards him and putting the universe in their place. Drops the mic and walks away.
