5 Current WWE Superstars who could benefit from aligning with Paul Heyman

#2 An alignment with Paul Heyman could cement Charlotte Flair as WWE's greatest ever female performer

The association between Paul Heyman and the Flair family dates back to his very first show as a promoter.

Just 19 years old at the time, a young Heyman produced a show at New York's famed Studio 54 nightclub - with Ric Flair as the star attraction. That night, Heyman honored The Nature Boy by presenting him with an award for Man Of The Year.

Fast forward more than three decades and Paul Heyman is now in a position to play the role of hype man for Ric's daughter, Charlotte Flair.

Some would argue that Charlotte does not need the assistance of Heyman. However, while the former 12-time Women's Champion is more than capable of holding her own on the microphone, the same was true of Roman Reigns and CM Punk before they joined up with Paul Heyman.

Heyman still helped bring the careers of those two men to new heights and he can do a similar job for Charlotte.

With multiple title reigns, a Royal Rumble match win and a WrestleMania main event under her belt, Flair's long-term legacy is secure. With that said, in WWE's official countdown of the 50 Greatest Women's Superstars Ever announced earlier this year, Flair only placed second - beaten to top spot by WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus.

To most, this would be a minor footnote. However, for a character as committed to being the absolute best as Charlotte Flair, the ranking could be taken as a slap in the face. Flair has already made it clear on television that she was unhappy at being left off WrestleMania 37 last month and could quickly build up a list of further grievances against WWE.

Similar to his role as Special Counsel for Reigns, Paul Heyman could become the personal advisor for Charlotte, letting the world know about her greatness at every turn.

When Heyman is fully invested in a performer, he has the ability to make them feel special to the audience. Paul Heyman can help The Queen become the women's equivalent of The Tribal Chief - and go down as the best ever.
