Is Brock Lesnar destroying the business, like his opponents?
We would have had a new Paul Heyman guy
Is Paul Heyman scouting for the next big thing in wrestling?
Ad
Unlike Vince McMahon, Ted Turner and Dixie Carter, Paul Heyman always seems to have his finger on the pulse. He has the innate ability to predict the next big superstar in wrestling. Currently, with ratings sinking like The Titanic on its fateful night, the world really needs the future of WWE to make his presence felt. Heyman picked Stone Cold Steve Austin, Rob Van Dam, and C.M. Punk as his ‘guys’, even though none of them fit the mold of the superstars most companies look for.
But ever since his latest association with Brock Lesnar, he seems to be content in that role. And very honestly, we think that this gimmick has run its course with stale promos being repeated, week after week. WWE needs the next Paul Heyman guy (or girl) to step up to the plate, and hit a home run, for the long term sustenance of the brand.
