Paul Heyman Could Get New Client After Brock Lesnar's WWE Departure
'The Advocate' could take on a new client.
Although Brock Lesnar isn't expected to re-emerge in WWE before early 2019, it looks like the company are keen to retain his manager, Paul Heyman, as an on-screen personality.
This is according to Dave Meltzer in this week's Wrestling Observer Newsletter. He states that even if 'The Beast Incarnate' never returns, there's talk of keeping 'The Advocate' around, because he's too good not to be involved with the company in some shape or form.
Could this mean Heyman taking a new client on? Paul E. had been linked with Ronda Rousey a few months ago, but as Meltzer writers in the Observer, it feels too early to turn 'The Baddest Woman On The Planet' heel, particularly if she's to continue working with Stephanie McMahon.
Heyman swerving Lesnar to align with Roman Reigns or Braun Strowman was rumoured prior to SummerSlam, but this now seems to be off the table as well.
Whatever the case, Paul is one of the most celebrated non-wrestlers of his generation, and while Curtis Axel and Cesaro prove his managerial rub isn't foolproof, picking a new client could still send said performer to the stars with the right amount of planning.
