There’s probably nobody better on the microphone than Paul Heyman, as he’s so good in his role that Brock Lesnar doesn’t even need to open his mouth to be the massive draw that he is.
It’s a partnership that’s worked out wonderfully, as they seem made for one another and that was shown when Heyman turned his back on CM Punk and aligned himself with The Beast Incarnate and they haven’t looked back since.
THE BRILLIANCE OF HEYMAN
Under Heyman’s guidance, Lesnar conquered The Undertaker’s streak, captured the WWE Championship, finally defeated Goldberg and is now the Universal Champion on Monday Night RAW – so life is pretty good for the entertaining duo, and this is all in his second WWE stint.

It's clear that Heyman aligns himself with dominance, as evidenced by the destruction Lesnar leaves behind. He was also a big part of Punk's WWE Championship achievements, but there have been instances where it hasn't exactly worked out, too - such as Cesaro, Curtis Axel and Ryback.
Although he may not need to, there could be ways for Heyman to get rid of that slightly-tarnished reputation by finally bringing a Paul Heyman girl to WWE television.
It’s no secret that Heyman is a big fan of Charlotte Flair, and that connection would seem natural but Good Mic Work commentaries recently speculated that Heyman could align himself with current NXT Women’s Champion Asuka, whenever she moves up to the main roster.
PAUL HEYMAN GIRL?
There are some understandable hurdles to overcome, but the benefits certainly make it worthwhile as Asuka is soon going to break Goldberg’s incredible 173-0 unbeaten record, so Heyman has a ready-made dominant female he can bring in and ease onto the main roster.
The language barrier is the big worry on RAW or SmackDown LIVE, as she’d need to talk a lot more but with a mouthpiece in Heyman by her side, she’d be in a similar position to Lesnar, who remains a massive draw and doesn’t necessarily need to speak to get over.
Asuka has also turned into an arrogant heel on NXT, which means if this rumour ended up being true, then Heyman wouldn’t need to switch his style up either as he’d still be acting like the promoter that’s building up its athlete as the best in the business.
It does seem like an unlikely scenario right now, but there are still ways in which WWE can make this happen to ensure Asuka’s success on NXT translates over to the main roster, rather than letting everything go to waste.
Her dominance inside of the ring alongside Heyman’s microphone is a recipe for success, and WWE has tried worse experiments before, so this is something which could certainly work in the long-run.
