Roman Reigns and Paul Heyman are now a wrestler-manager duo on WWE SmackDown and fans can't be more excited about it. Especially now that WWE finally pulled the trigger on turning Roman Reigns heel, it will likely allow new directions that we could have seen years ago.

Tom Colohue discussed the Roman Reigns-Paul Heyman relationship on Dropkick DiSKussions and revealed that the two have had a good relationship in WWE for years now:

A female WWE star said her life is in danger. Details HERE

[Paul] Heyman and Roman [Reigns] have had a long-term relationship. They've known each other and had massive respect for each other for a long time. Even five years ago, as far as WrestleMania 31, they discussed the idea of Paul Heyman in Roman Reigns' corner - wrecking things

Ultimately, WWE went with the direction of having Roman Reigns headline four straight WrestleManias. Colohue said that the plan was to bring Brock Lesnar back, but that situation hasn't played out:

They were planning to bring Brock Lesnar back, but here we are now. Suddenly, there's no one for him to manage, now he's with Roman, now Roman is here, now Roman is a heel, now everything has changed.

We hope this is true because it's good to see that the seeds of the Reigns-Heyman alliance was planted years ago in WWE.
