Following Vince McMahon’s retirement from WWE, Stephanie McMahon was named as co-CEO of the promotion. Meanwhile, Paul Heyman serves as the Special Counsel for Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns.There has been much speculation about Paul Heyman’s role and future in the promotion.
In June 2019, WWE named Paul Heyman as executive director of Monday Night Raw, but he was removed from the position the following year. On the recent edition of PW Torch’s Focus, Wade Keller discussed about the working relationship between Paul Heyman and Stephanie McMahon. He noted that now both have a good working relationship and Heyman is someone to watch.
“He [Paul Heyman] has worked with WWE and he butted heads with Stephanie McMahon. As I’ve talked about in recent months, it seems like to people that have seen them that Heyman and Stephanie get along. You know like, genuinely, there’s a chemistry and a dynamic between them that’s very positive. And that’s very different than, you know, 15-20 years ago. So, Heyman is someone to watch. He’s really, really smart. And he is a wrestling guy.” [H/T: WrestlingNews.co]
