Paul Heyman has arguably been the best manager WWE has seen to date. He has been associated with the best of the best and has managed to take superstars to new heights. His latest pairing with Brock Lesnar is a great example of the magic the man can do on the mic.
Kurt Angle made it clear that Lesnar won’t be getting his rematch for the WWE Universal Title for a long time, which means that The Beast has departed from the WWE temporarily. Now all eyes are on Heyman who is left without a client and there has been a lot of speculation on the internet about who his next client could be.

There seems to be a lot of talent on the WWE roster who could use his services to propel their careers, while a lot of established stars are also under the radar as they may not be the best on the mic.
Before SummerSlam 2018, many believed Heyman would turn against his current client and help Roman Reigns win the WWE Universal Title, thus turning Roman Reigns heel and also changing loyalties. However, ‘The Monster Among Men’ Brawn Strowman was chosen to be the distraction for Brock Lesnar in order for Roman Reigns to finally come out on top. This also brought about the reunion of The Shield, silencing all the rumours surrounding Roman Reigns’ and Paul Heyman’s pair-up.
With Heyman now looking for a new client, let us look at 5 talents who could use his services:
#5 Bobby Lashley
Bobby Lashley arrived with a blast and now is nowhere to be seen. What happened? After 'Mania, Lashley’s arrival was the talk of the town but the same has completely disappeared. He’s now more of a mid-card player than anything else. His most memorable matches involve his teaming up with Braun Strowman, and his feud with Sami Zayn has left a bad taste in the moth.
To rub salt on the wound, his mic skills can be extremely robotic at times which leaves one to think what WWE is planning to do with him. A character reboot at this point can seriously help remind fans what Lashley can do and why he is one of the most deserving wrestlers on the main roster.
With many traits similar to Lesnar, Lashley’s partnership with Paul Heyman could help establish him as the top wrestler in the business.
#4 Mojo Rawley
Much like Cesaro and Curtis Axel, Mojo Rawley could also use some help to get over in the WWE. Since arriving on the main roster in 2016, Rawley has managed to get nowhere in his career. His most notable achievement was winning André the Giant Memorial Trophy 2017, after which he has not managed to achieve much in his career.
Mojo Rawley is no short of talent, and much like Cesaro, could use help from Heyman to get across as a convincing heel on RAW. He could be a valuable asset to the WWE and needs to be handled and booked properly.
#3 Authors of Pain
Whilst Paul Heyman has managed tag teams in the past, he hasn’t done so for quite some time. Authors of Pain are one such talent who are in dire need of help in order to go up the tag-team division ladder on RAW.
Paul Ellering helped the duo get over in the NXT division and they became an unstoppable force, but their switch to RAW led to them saying goodbye to their manager.
With Heyman being the best manager of heels in the WWE, Authors of Pain can surely be a great choice for Vince to bring the team together with Heyman and make them an unstoppable force on Monday Nights.
#2 Ronda Rousey
For a long time, there have been rumours that once Lesnar departs the WWE for UFC, Heyman would instantly switch to Ronda Rousey as her new manager. When the Baddest Chick on the Planet signed onto WWE, she wasn’t the best on the mic. However, over the passage of time, she’s managed to significantly improve on that.
Rousey is now the Raw Women's Champion in her first reign and is destined to go places. She could surely use some help on the mic to sell some major feuds on the main roster, such as with Asuka and once NXT’s Shayna Baszler main roster debut and comes after the gold.
#1 Kevin Owens
If there is one guy who can cut promos on RAW without any problems, its definitely Kevin Owens. The man needs no introduction and matches his in-ring performance perfectly with his character and mic-work.
KO recently quit RAW and rumours suggest that he will return in a new role with Paul Heyman as his manager. This means KO might be getting the CM Punk treatment and the prizefighter will be aiming for the gold once Wrestlemania approaches. CM Punk’s work on the mic along with his pairing with Heyman ensured that Punk could become the champion without question, and the same could apply for Kevin Owens.
It’ll be a great way to bring KO back in television and give him the major push he deserves, while Heyman will get to manage one of the most talented wrestlers on the roster like he has done so many times in the past.
