With Brock Lesnar leaving WWE for UFC, his advocate Paul Heyman will require a new client to go forward. It also makes sense as he is too good to be wasted in just a backstage role. He is loved by true WWE fans all over the world for his exceptional dialogue delivery skills. His heel work during Lesnar vs Reigns feud was more than brilliant throughout and attracted many fans in an otherwise dull story. He is known to bring life to any storyline irrespective of wrestlers. Let us have a look at five potential current superstars who are suitable to become Heyman's next client.


#1.Ronda Rousey

This is the most obvious choice. Though Rousey is a natural in the ring, the same cannot be said about her mic work. She is steadily improving, but still has a long way to go. With WWE Evolution just a couple of months ago, she would benefit so much with Paul on her side. She could also be a great heel as according to Wrestling Observer Newsletter, she could be facing either Nikki Bella or Natalya in Evolution, both of whom are baby-face at the moment.

2. Dean Ambrose

According to Whatculture wrestling, Dean Ambrose is going to turn heel very soon and is soon going to fight against Seth Rollins, his 'Sheild brother'. His new look after the return suggests a destructive force. He now looks like a big, ripped, husky giant, who can now destroy any WWE superstar on any given day.

All he needs is someone to do the talking for him and who can be better in the whole company than Paul Heyman, who coincidentally, is looking for a new client. If WWE plays all their cards right, he can be the next Brock Lesnar, all he requires is an advocate like Paul. If they would pair them together, then the Universal title is not far away from his hands.

#3. Alexa Bliss

This choice is a bit unusual from the rest. But, many will agree that she is an outstanding heel. When she was the Raw Women's champion, she took the title to a different level. Fans truly hate her, which is the job of a heel.

Her two title reigns this year were decent. If she would be paired with Paul, then her Third title reign could take her to the top. Though WWE decided to squash her against Ronda Rousey to make Rousey look stronger, she is more than capable to have a decent match with her which could possibly headline WWE Evolution in October.

#4. Roman Reigns

This is another obvious choice. Like Rousey, Reigns too is Decent in the ring but has to work a lot in his dialogue delivery, which sounds heavily scripted. Currently, with the Universal title around his waist, he requires someone like Mr. Heyman to do the talking for him to make him feel like a true champion.

The recent episode of Raw with shield reunion suggests a heel turn for Roman Reigns to save his title from Braun Strowman. Heyam and Reigns even have a history together which can be tied very well in a storyline.

#5. Shinsuke Nakamura

This choice makes the most sense. Since his heel turn in Wrestlemania, Nakamura is doing wonders with his character. Though he couldn't grab the WWE title from AJ Styles, he justified his heel turn at Extreme Rules by defeating Jeff Hardy to win United States Championship belt.

He is a gifted wrestler, but his character demands good promos from him, and since, the English language is not his strongest suit, he lacks in that area. In the kind of place he is in, at the moment, if he could just get Paul, he could do miracles with that belt and could possibly become the face of the company in the near future.
