6 WWE stars who can be the next Brock Lesnar

WWE has a Brock Lesnar-sized void in its roster. For much of the last decade, The Beast terrorized anyone and everyone on RAW and SmackDown. He won numerous titles, including Money in the Bank and the 2022 Royal Rumble.

For most of his career, Lesnar was flanked by Paul Heyman. Heyman has soldiered on with other clients while The Beast was either off TV or unsigned.

The Wiseman is still involved in the neverending Bloodline drama. He could branch out whenever that angle ends. The next six WWE stars could become the next Brock Lesnar as clients of Paul Heyman in 2025.

#6. CM Punk or #5. Roman Reigns could be part-time Heyman guys

The easiest and least creative decision for Heyman would be to put him back with a former client. Heyman made his mark by initially representing Brock Lesnar during the early stages of his WWE career.

When Lesnar left for other pursuits, CM Punk brought Heyman to his side. The pairing was less about needing a mouthpiece and more about two master strategists joining forces to rule over WWE.

Heyman owes Punk a favor for helping at WarGames. Reigns calls Heyman his "Wiseman," so WWE could opt to reunite the two. Solo Sikoa didn't value his advice, but that could also change in 2025.

#4. Representing another dominant heel champion

Gunther debuted with Imperium but has acted more as a solo act over the last few months. Ludwig Kaiser has been by his side on and off as feuds have needed. He often fought Gunther's opponents before they faced The Ring General.

Heyman is used to aligning with dominant heel stars, and few currently fit the mold better than Gunther. He's RAW's champion and will likely enter WrestleMania 41 with his title.

If Heyman betrays the Bloodline, he could switch brands to represent The Ring General. Gunther is great in promos but could become so overconfident that he refuses to speak. Heyman could then be his mouthpiece.

#3. Omos needs a place in WWE's New Era

Omos was a fixture on WWE programming before Triple H took over. He won the RAW Tag titles with AJ Styles and faced Seth Rollins, Brock Lesnar, and Braun Strowman in specialty matches.

One way to get the towering superstar on TV would be to make him a Paul Heyman Guy. The Nigerian giant wouldn’t have to do any speaking.

Heyman could do all the promo work for his monster like he did Lesnar and Reigns in the past. Omos is too special not to be used, so pairing him with Heyman would give both something to do.

#2. Oba Femi is another physical anomaly

Oba Femi of NXT would be a great client for Paul Heyman. Femi has a lot of the same qualities as Brock Lesnar. He’s physical, explosive, imposing, and dominating.

Femi might be the next NXT champion, but if not, moving to the main roster with Heyman would be a big possibility. He has the "It Factor" stars need to advance to the top of WWE.

NXT's ruler has adapted to every opponent, no matter their size. He's wrestled great matches with Axiom, Nathan Frazer, Wes Lee, Dijak, Josh Briggs, and many others. Putting him with Heyman would make Femi's transition to the main roster easy.

#1. Bron Breakker is the perfect new client

One person who could be the new Paul Heyman Guy would be Bron Breakker. He’s already been positioned as a big player for the future and has won the Intercontinental Championship in his first year on the main roster.

Due to his physical and explosive nature, it would make sense for Heyman to put his chips in with the talented second-generation star. The Wiseman has a history of picking stars who are physical like Brock Lesnar.

He's also represented the biggest stars of the current generation like he did with Punk, Lesnar, and Roman Reigns. Bron Breakker fits that mold. They've already crossed paths in NXT and on the main roster.
