#9 Paul Heyman -- Benjen Stark

Ever wondered how lost we would be without these guys?

Sometimes, a warrior needs someone to guide him through the adversities that lie ahead in the path.

In the show, Benjen Stark aka Uncle Benjen guides Jon Snow in every step of adulthood (until he dies i.e.). He even defends his nephews beyond the wall and sacrifices everything he has for their protection. Truth be told, he is the one who hyped the army of Whitewalkers. And, he says the things that others need to hear.

Like Uncle Benjen, Paul Heyman plays a crucial role in guiding the storylines pertaining to WWE Superstars. Despite speaking as the advocate of Brock Lesnar, he elevates the persona of The Beast Incarnate's in-ring opponents.

The manner in which he hyped both Finn Balor and Seth Rollins ahead of their respective matches against Lesnar speaks volumes about the importance of a spokesperson like Heyman.

Now that he is the executive director of RAW, he will be the guiding force behind the major changes in the storylines showcased in the Red Brand.

Both Uncle Benjen and Paul Heyman are not billed as the main character. But they sure know how to make their presence felt.
