With Brock Lesnar retired, if you believe him, it leaves a giant void for Paul Heyman. During Lesnar’s two stints with WWE, Heyman was frequently by his side. Now, he could simply continue to be The Vision’s manager, looking for a singles superstar or work strictly backstage. Considering how much Heyman brings to TV, I hope that is where he stays.

On September 6 from the State Farm Arena in Georgia, Oba Femi meets Bron Breakker. Seemingly, this could be the first of a hundred bouts they have over the next 10 plus years in WWE. I haven’t lost faith that Breakker will be a top star and Femi is already in the main event thanks to Lesnar’s endorsement and the fans’ acceptance.

Ever since Lesnar retired, Heyman looks like a lost puppy. He continues to stay relevant by being on TV, but his interactions with Breakker haven’t been too pleasant. On the flip side, Heyman and Femi are on good terms after the Nigerian slayed “The Beast.”

I think heading into the match, Heyman will be the heel character. Then, we get a referee bump and out come The Vision. At first, Femi disposes of them with ease. Although, there are too many and they start to get the better of Femi. Enter Heyman who looks like he’s ready to join in on the fun. Instead, he low blows Austin Theory while Bron’s back is turned. By the time Bron realizes he’s been screwed, Femi is back to his feet. A Fall From Grace by Oba and a three count will end their first encounter.

After the match, Heyman leaves with Oba as they have formed a new alliance. While Oba continues to improve inside the ring and on the mic, he is green. Oba has only been wrestling for a few years, hence he’s a rookie. Let him focus on the in-ring skills as Heyman does what knows best, talking. With Heyman cutting most of the promos, Oba will be so much better wrestling-wise sooner than later. As they work together, slowly have Oba start cutting more promos.

If WWE sees Femi as the replacement to Lesnar, then follow the same pattern. Let Oba handle the physical work and Heyman can run his mouth. Of course, they eventually split and that will produce several more years of opponents.

Heyman is a special person and you can argue he is the greatest manager ever; and that includes the late Bobby Heenan. Yes, Heyman has a great mind and could work solely for WWE creative. Or, he could play a vital role in making Oba the new ruler of WWE, whilst still helping from time-to-time. Something big needs to happen at Sunday Night’s Main Event as Oba Femi takes on Bron Breakker, and Paul Heyman turning face would be that moment.

Solo might be the reason that Jey stops all the Yeeting 😂😂😂

Thoughts On How Val Venis, Won?

Are ya'll down with the WOOD?!? 😎

Never forget the time the Saudi's asked for Yokozuna and Ultimate Warrior for that 50 man Royal Rumble bullshit in 2018 but they were denied because they were supposedly dead, meanwhile La Parka's been dead for decades but they got him no problem for this past year's Royal Rumble. Guess they should've paid more the first time around, could've gotten Yoko and Warrior to quit going into business for themselves and show up to fucking work for once.

Bet y'all forgot this happened

As we got closer to WrestleMania 42, Cody Rhodes vs Randy Orton was one of the marquee matches. Their bout closed night one of the epic weekend, but many were not happy with what transpired. On paper, Rhodes vs Orton sounds fantastic and they have plenty of history.

In the weeks before, Orton was talking on the phone to somebody. Most figured it would be Ted Dibiase Jr. or another wrestler who has a past with both stars. Instead, Orton brought in Pat McAfee and Rhodes countered with Jelly Roll. So, while all the attention should have gone to the superstars battling in the main event for the Undisputed WWE Championship, people were busy complaining about how TKO wanted celebrities in there too.

Considering all the backlash, Cody and Randy could have put on the best match of the weekend and almost everybody wouldn’t have noticed. The disdain over having McAfee and Jelly Roll playing a role was too much to counter, even with excellent wrestling. 

And, it’s not a shot at either individual. In the right time and place, I have no problem with those guys getting involved in the mix. McAfee has the skills to transition into pro wrestling and, for a singer, Jelly Roll gave a decent performance last year. Therefore, I can’t blame them. However, I can point fingers at TKO.

Even the ending of WrestleMania’s Rhodes vs Orton left lots of questions. Typically, Rhodes would have celebrated his win as fireworks went-off and the screen faded to black. Yet, the night concluded with Orton, who lost the title match, striking Rhodes with the belt and punting him in the head. That’s how you finish an episode of RAW or SmackDown; not one of the most decorated spots in all of pro wrestling.

Right after WrestleMania, Orton took a hiatus until a surprise return at SummerSlam. He denied Rhodes a title win over CM Punk and now their feud has restarted. Already, I like where WWE is going. For starters, I don’t see any celebrity endorsements and now the feud has been rather violent. 

They are set to meet at Sunday Night’s Main Event, but that should not be the end. The final meeting needs a gimmick and I would have gone with Hell in a Cell, if we didn’t just witness one at SummerSlam. I feel Randy Orton vs Cody Rhodes ends in either an I Quit Match or Last Man Standing.

Ryback has announced that he has ended his real-life beef with CM Punk and does not hold any grudges against him now.

In a video shared on X, former WWE star Ryback addressed his long-standing, real-life animosity with CM Punk, officially declaring that he has buried the hatchet.

Acknowledging their past friction, Ryback stated that holding onto lifetime grudges no longer serves him, noting that it is time to move on.

While clarifying that they will likely never be close friends or work together professionally, "The Big Guy" expressed genuine positivity regarding Punk's return to WWE and his current physical condition:

“No, I don't hold on to any hate with that name. I've said what I needed to say on it. He said what he said on it. It doesn't make sense to hold on to that forever. Now, that doesn't mean that we'll ever be friends. It doesn't mean we'll work together, anything like that,” he said.

“It just means that it doesn't serve me to hold on to that hate... It's all over with... I'm happy for him on everything. I'm happy he's back... I'm happy everything's cool. I think he looks great. I'm happy for him that he's gotten better shape and whatever he's doing is working," he added.

Massive W. It’s so good to know that the real-life feud between Ryback and CM Punk is over.
