Could Heyman take these guys back to their winning ways?

This is a unique pick and one that some may disagree with. However, I'd like for you to think back to the NXT run that these guys had. The Ascension is arguably the best tag team in NXT's brief history. Viktor and Konnor have an unbreakable level of chemistry and a solid in-ring arsenal.
The problem these guys ran into wasn't necessarily of their own fault. The problem they faced, was poor booking. Once WWE creative decided to have The Ascension start mocking the Road Warriors and all the other legendary tag teams, they immediately became a laughing stock amongst fans everywhere.
I'm not suggesting that Viktor and Konnor go through some sort of repackaging, I just think they need to go back to destroying tag teams, just as they did in NXT and if they had Paul Heyman doing the smack talking, they could focus on just that, becoming a legitimate threat in the tag team division.

Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.
Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.
Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
