Kevin Owens will make his WWE return as Paul Heyman's next client, according to a rumour stemming from Barnburner's Fired Up Podcast.

The former Universal Champion, who apparently quit on Monday Night RAW this week following a loss to Seth Rollins for the Intercontinental Championship, is allegedly being lined up to be the next superstar that Paul Heyman represents.

Following Brock Lesnar's departure from WWE in order to focus on a return to the octagon in the UFC, there has been much speculation on who would become Heyman's next client.

Many suggested Ronda Rousey would be an ideal replacement for Brock, whilst Bobby Lashley and Roman Reigns were also mentioned, but it's easy to see how well Owens and Heyman would mesh as a duo.

Some may argue that someone with the promo skills of Owens doesn't need the support of Heyman, but a return for the 34-year old as a 'Paul Heyman Guy' would instantly elevate his standing in the roster and perhaps even immediately return him to the Universal Championship picture.

It's not known when Owens will return to RAW or even WWE, but a comeback with Heyman by his side would certainly get people talking about what's next for the Prizefighter.
