Paul Heyman it seems he is going to be in need of a new client especially considering by all intensive purposes Brock Lesnar has more or less turned his back on Paul Heyman after that attack on RAW last week. However, that being said who do you think should be the next Paul Heyman Guy or Girl?
Names that spring to mind as to who Paul Heyman could be an advocate for:
Roman Reigns Authors of Pain Shayna Baszler Tommaso Ciampa Aleister Black Samoa Joe Ronda Rousey Kevin Owens Braun Strowman Bobby Lashley
Those are just off the top of my head anyway

Apollo Crews
He can't cut a promo, and he's not that over. It's perfect.

That's Heymans purpose with Brock, and the only reason he was with Punk was because of actual personal history and it made sense within the angle.

I’m gonna say Reigns. I have this gut feeling that Heyman will turn on Brock and side with Roman at SummerSlam.

John Cena is a good pick. It would be like Bischoff and Hogan back in nwo

I think Shayna would be a perfect fit for Heyman when they bring her up. Ronda I feel would have to turn heel to be with Heyman and it seems like she is too over with the crowd as a face at the moment.

Obvious answer is Roman Reigns. Roman could fit the role as a Corporate Champion 2.0 to a T since that is legitimately the most accurate way to describe him. Siding with Stephanie or Vince would be better but Heyman would suffice. But since Paul is now a sympathetic character and would be justified to screw over Lesnar, and Roman joining forces with Heyman could be seen as Reigns taking up the fight for Paul, I don't know if Paul Heyman could continue on as a heel or if Roman would automatically be treated as a heel.
As a wildcard, I would say Dean Ambrose. I always envisioned they would pair well. Heyman could help legitimize Ambrose as a serious heel contender and prevent Dean from being yet another heel who runs from a fair fight with Da Big Dawg.
AOP would benefit as well. They were obviously at their best when they were with Ellering down in NXT. with the current state of Raw's tag team division, Heyman could make them into a top dominant team again. The catch with this is if WWE would feel comfortable putting a manager with such a high profile with two guys who are currently so far down on the totem pole.
Assuming Kevin Owens is successful in winning MITB from Braun and cashes in at Summerslam, Heyman can keep up his heel persona by showcasing himself as a manager who is obsessed with being aligned with a champion. Owens would also need help fending off challenges from both Strowman and Reigns, and Paul could very well provide that.

Paul turning on Lesnar at Summerslam and joining forces with Reigns is so clearly the right move that you know they're not going to do it.
But yeah. Reigns. Easily Reigns. No one else even comes close.

We saw with Curtis Axel and Ryback that you can't just take anybody and have Paul Heyman make them a star. It works with Lesnar and it worked with CM Punk because they were ALREADY stars.
This idea that you can match Paul Heyman with somebody and he'll make them a star is not a correct hypothesis, in MY OPINION. And again, no knock on Paul Heyman, he does a great job....but I just don't think he's going to be able to get somebody to that NEXT LEVEL who wasn't already there, or headed there on their own.

No one, have Heyman off TV for a while. He hasn’t gotten anybody over in years.

Nobody. Oh man, are we hitting that time of year where you post 30 threads in 2 days? Are you not ready to already make match predictions for SummerSlam 2019?

I don't want him with Dean. When Dean returns, I hope a heel turn follows shortly after. I want Dean to be the heel other heels hate.
Roman would be ideal. A heel turn and an alliance with Heyman would be entertaining IMO.
Finn is another name I'd throw into the hat. He's okay on the mic, but he needs a jolt of personality. A heel turn would help that. He can claim he was tired of not getting the opportunities he deserves. And that Paul is the right guy to get him there.
I also wouldn't mind giving him a new Dangerous Alliance of sorts. A new heel faction is kinda what WWE needs at the moment.

I Have a feeling the Lesnar/Heyman thing is a big swerve.

It's my personal preference based mostly on nostalgia but I would like to see Paul get one more run managing a Dangerous Alliance type faction. The WWE needs more stables and has the roster capable of supporting a new one.
Imagine a post heel turn Roman Reigns and AoP under Paul's leadership. Throw one more person in the mix, maybe Chad Gable or Jason Jordan, and you have a good group with a main eventer, a mid carder, and a tag team.

No one else even comes close. It fell right in their laps, too. I'm not going to believe it until I see it, though. We saw Cena not turn heel year-after-year. But this scenario easily sets up Roman to main event WrestleMania, again. Either with Braun cashing in honorably for a match or with Rollins winning the Rumble and running Reigns down. It's such a natural fit that it couldn't be any more perfect. But as you said, we can't trust them to not screw this up.
