7 current WWE superstars who will one day be WWE Hall of Famers

#3 Paul Heyman

Enter — One of the smartest minds in wrestling history

Ladies and gentlemen, his name is Paul Heyman and he is a wrestling genius. Heyman had a knack for business at an early age, making money in various ways such as selling photographs and sports memorabilia.

By the time he was finished with high school, Paul had a job as a photographer for the famed New York City nightclub called Studio 54. But, it was his love for professional wrestling that would eventually trump all other aspirations in life.

By the time he was a teenager, Paul was selling wrestler photos and publishing his own newsletter 'The Wrestling Times Magazine.' This passion for the sport would remain with him as he grew older and as we all know now, he would go on to make a tremendous amount of positive contributions to the industry.

Maybe you started watching him when he was known as "Paul E. Dangerously," carrying the big brick-style phone, or maybe you started watching when ECW became popular, or perhaps you became familiar with Paul just recently as he advocates for the 'Beast Incarnate'. Regardless, Paul Heyman has contributed enough to the sport of professional wrestling, and he continues to do so, to justify an induction into the WWE Hall of Fame.

Jonathan Carpenter is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda. After obtaining a degree in political science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, he started writing WWE articles in 2016. 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.
