#4 Stone Cold Steve Austin
Could you imagine someone making a mistake as huge as firing Steve Austin? Well, Eric Bischoff learned the consequences of it the hard way when he fired him from WCW. Heyman was quick to offer Austin a contract to ECW, which he accepted and that led to the birth of the "Stone Cold" persona.
Under Heyman's ECW, Austin unloaded his anger at WCW through vignettes directed at them, and it became an instant hit with the company. Soon after, WWE/F realized the star that Heyman had created and called him up.

We all know what the Texas RattleSnake did after that. Considered one of the biggest superstars in the history of pro wrestling, Austin has Heyman to thank for believing in him.
#3 Heidenreich
Having the gimmick of a Psychopath, Jon Heidenreich made his in-ring debut in 2004 with Paul Heyman by his side. While not many of you might remember him, the guy created a decent impact with attacking the Dead Man himself, The Undertaker, even costing him the WWE Championship.
He lost to him and joined the Road Warrior to win the Tag Team Championship. Soon, he split with them as well and was released from the company.
