10 Things Paul Heyman may have planned for SummerSlam

#6 Alundra Blayze appears

Paul Heyman has a long history with Alundra Blayze

There a number of talents who can claim to have been “Paul Heyman guys” over the years. There are obvious choices liken Brock Lesnar and CM Punk whom Heyman mentored behind the scenes, had a close relationship with, and collaborated with on air.

Then there are talents like Steve Austin whom Heyman had a briefer connection to but nonetheless championed. We also have Superstars like Curtis Axel and Ryback whom Heyman worked with on screen but didn’t seem to have a real kinship with backstage.

For all of these Paul Heyman guys, there is one talent who can make a strong claim to being the original Paul Heyman girl: Alundra Blayze.

As Madusa in WCW, Blayze was a part of Heyman’s Dangerous Alliance faction. While she was under utilized, it’s clear that the affiliation with Heyman afforded her what opportunities she had to get over.

The two have spoken highly of each other over the decades to follow, and one could read Blayze’s featured role on Raw Reunion as related to Heyman’s creative input. We may well see her again at SummerSlam if Heyman gets his way. We could see her confront a certain Lacey Evans given that both have been exchanging blows on social media.
