Paul Heyman and Roman Reigns aren't the only ones in WWE putting a lot of thought into the latter's new heel character.

According to reports from PWInsider's Elite service, one Michael Hayes has also been helping to produce Roman's promos and big pay-per-view matches since he returned at SummerSlam in August. The report states that Hayes has been "very hands on" as of late.

Together, Heyman and Hayes are putting a lot of energy into Reigns' work. It's paying off, because Roman has become one of the best characters in all of pro wrestling during the second half of 2020, and he shows no signs of slowing down any time soon.

In fact, there's a chance that things could only get better if he's given more high profile opponents during the Royal Rumble-WrestleMania 37 sprint.

Heyman has spoken on television about his rich, real-life history with the Anoa'i family. That stretches back to the late-1970s and into the 80s - Hayes was also around during that time, so he'll have a firm grasp on what this 'Head Of The Table' gimmick is all about.
