5 ways Paul Heyman can affect Roman Reigns vs. Brock Lesnar at Crown Jewel

It has been a rollercoaster of emotions for Paul Heyman ever since Brock Lesnar made his triumphant return to WWE at SummerSlam in Las Vegas. It has left the WWE Universe and The Bloodline wondering where Heyman's loyalties lie.

Is Paul Heyman loyal to The Bloodline and the Tribal Chief, Roman Reigns? Is Paul Heyman fuelling Brock Lesnar's recent return? Is Paul Heyman just caught in the middle of a war between the two heavyweights of WWE? The match between Reigns and Lesnar at Crown Jewel will surely provide the answer.

That being said, let's take a look at five ways Paul Heyman can affect the Roman Reigns vs. Brock Lesnar Universal Championship match at the upcoming pay-per-view.

#5 Paul Heyman can prove he is 100% committed to the Bloodline at Crown Jewel

Paul Heyman has been with the Tribal Chief since August 28, 2020. He declared himself to be Reigns' special legal counsel and led the Universal Champion to the top of WWE.

Along the way, Reigns' cousins, The Usos, brought into the idea of The Bloodline. The group took over SmackDown and are at the pinnacle of their careers. Nobody has been able to topple them from their throne.

Paul Heyman discussed Roman Reigns' passion for being the best in an interview with Inside The Ropes:

"The one human being that I know of that was willing to take on that impossible impossibility is Roman Reigns, and Roman Reigns is so obsessed, consumed with, desirous of becoming the absolute greatest of all time. Undisputed, uncontroverted in that designation. He yearns for greatness every micro-moment that he’s on camera. He needs it, he lusts for it. To such a degree that it inspires me.” Paul Heyman said.

At Crown Jewel on October 21, Paul Heyman will have to show his commitment to the Bloodline and Roman Reigns. Heyman's task will be pretty simple: raise Roman Reigns' hand, with the Universal Championship, at the end of the match.

He knows Brock Lesnar's strengths and weaknesses. If Reigns conquers the Beast Incarnate with the help of Paul Heyman in Saudi Arabia, then his loyalty will be proven.

#4 Paul Heyman might not appear at Crown Jewel

Paul Heyman claims he had nothing to do with Brock Lesnar's return at SummerSlam or his free agency in WWE following the draft.

All the accusations, and all the doubts, recently brought Heyman to tears. Things could be getting all too much for the wise man, so much so that he might remove himself from Crown Jewel.

If Heyman removes himself, it could affect Bloodline's game plan, costing Roman Reigns his Universal Champion. Not having his primary aide by his side could be fatal.

#3 A new Paul Heyman guy could be introduced at Crown Jewel

This possibility might be a bit far-fetched, but anything is possible with Paul Heyman. He could see weakness in Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar and decides to take matters into his own hands.

Could Paul Heyman bring someone else in to lay out both Reigns and Lesnar at Crown Jewel? One man who could certainly fit the bill right now is Bron Breakker, who has been making an impact on NXT 2.0. Heyman could consider him as the future of the business.

Another name that could potentially be thrown into the mix is Omos. His size alone can strike fear into any competitor. The recent news that WWE was looking to split him from AJ Styles could signify things to come.

Either way, Paul Heyman always has a trick up his sleeve that could open the floodlights for the new Paul Heyman Guy at Crown Jewel.

#2 Paul Heyman could provide a false game plan for The Bloodline at Crown Jewel

Paul Heyman has a reputation for being a scheming menace. Many superstars have fallen victim to Heyman's ways, even Brock Lesnar. Paul turned on Lesnar at the Survivor Series pay-per-view in 2002 to align himself with The Big Show.

Heyman could have another plan in mind for Crown Jewel. What if he convinced Roman Reigns of a plan that would ultimately turn out to be his downfall? The 'Messiah of ECW' has a way with words and knows what to say in any situation.

He could convince Reigns to keep The Usos backstage for the Universal Championship match. It could result in Roman facing Lesnar on his own and Heyman taking advantage of the situation.

After all, Reigns believes Heyman is a wise man and would trust his words more than anything.

#1 Paul Heyman could reaffirm his loyalty to Brock Lesnar at Crown Jewel

Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia could be the night we see Brock Lesnar and Paul Heyman reunite again. Lesnar has claimed he is back and a free agent thanks to his former advocate, but Heyman is telling The Bloodline otherwise.

As we know, loyalty isn't necessarily in Paul Heyman's playbook, but no matter the situation, he has always returned to The Beast Incarnate. Heyman could play a vital role in helping Brock Lesnar dethrone the Head of the Table and reclaim his Universal Championship.

After a year of being the wise man to Roman Reigns, Crown Jewel could tear The Bloodline apart. Paul Heyman's role in this match is crucial, and in the end, we will know exactly where his true loyalties lie.
