What's crackalackin yall, I hope this finds you in good spirits. Sometimes you've got to get knocked down to get up, so you keep on pushing pimpin! We're at issue 12 for this season so means this Volume of Brown's FIVE at 5 will be coming to a close soon. Fret not, for the blogs will keep on coming cause they dont stop coming! So welcome back to!
I don't know about yall, but I feel like Paul Heyman and his current version of The Vision just aren't working. Slap the tag titles on em all you want, but they've gone way past the initial course. Yes I know the injury bug got em, but did they really need to continue adding members? I mean yeah it was fun for War Games but that's all it really needed to be. Unfortunately for Breakker, Logan, and Theory, this just feels like Ryback and Curtis Axel all over again. Seriously. It's time for Paul Heyman to move on to something else.
The Paul Heyman Guys have been known to be succesful, you look at the list top to bottom and you'll see it's not perfect either. But one thing is for sure, having Heyman in your corner will raise your stock. It truly helps to have someone of Heyman's caliber in your corner to get you to the places you'd like to be. For those it didn't work for, at least they can wear a t-shirt that says "I Was A Paul Heyman Guy".
LETS GET TO IT YALL!!
BROWN'S FIVE AT 5
VOLUME 3 / ISSUE 12
FIVE SUPERSTARS TO BE THE NEXT HEYMAN GUY
5.CODY RHODES
What we feared would happen has already happened. Cody Rhodes is clearly the new Chosen One to be the face of the fed with Cena's exit. Whilst it is welcomed by those they were hoping to gain approval from, alot of IWC has some choice words for our current WWE Undisputed Universal World Heavyweight Champion. Promos sound the same, the entrance is the same one from his re-debut all those years ago, and the in-ring work is just as repetitive. And i aint bashing Cody, just calling it like I see it. But Cody is loyal to the game, not the rapper, and dedicated to the craft and has shown he'll go the distance to put on a quality matchup. Cody just needs a little something to get to the next level of his character. Everyone wanted Cody to be Homelander so bad and that's the reason he hasn't danced with the devil. Putting Heyman with Cody would put a real shot in the arm of Cody's current and future runs as champion. Whilst Cody has no need for a mouth piece, maybe a break from the mic would help make viewers a little less annoyed. What do I wanna talk about? I wanna talk about seeing Cody peak as the biggest heel on the roster with a proven Wiseman at his side.
4.TONY D'ANGELO
Y'all know how I feel about Tony D'Angelo. And this current Tony D'Angelo aint grating the parmesan cheese neither. Opportunities have been missed that would have made sense but here we are. Tony D'Angelo has done everything there is to do in NXT. Whether or not he ever gets called up is the question that may never have an answer. But I have the answer! Tony D'Angelo, in my eyes, would have made a great fit with The Vision. The Vision needs someone like D'Angelo; Logan and Theory being the annoying punks that like to push people around, and Breakker is the uncontrollable bezerker. D'Angelo has the presence of an enforcer and would be a strong acquistion for any stable in need of a strong arm. Paul Heyman is still Paul Heyman, and whilst some of the names that have been attached to Heyman haven't been successful, D'Angelo can be an exception. With an already proven, and lengthy, NXT track record, the tale of the tape favors Tony against other NXT stars that have made the move to the main roster. Heyman can bring in D'Angelo as solo act and could put him up against Femi once the Lesnar feud ends. D'Angelo doesn't need to debut a winner, and Oba Femi will need something to do for a month or two.
3.JOSH BRIGGS
Josh Briggs is a name some may have already forgotten, but there's a reason he's still on the roster. Once touted by JBL as the next big thing, Josh Briggs has fallen way down the card since. Like Tony D, Josh Briggs is someone who has been on NXT longer than necessary. Briggs reminds me of the fast big men with intimidating offense like Kane, Baron Corbin, and Dijak, it's no wonder he's still around. Briggs throws blows that bump like an 89 chevy beating down the block. I have seen the potential Briggs has and what he brings to the table, and if JBL isn't gonna be in his corner then it should be Heyman. Not alot of big cats on the main roster, Briggs' presence alone will tower over the lower midcard en route to bigger thangs, and stuff. Heyman needs to attach his name to someone that can do some damage without allies. If I were Heyman, i'd have already been on the phone with this potential new client.
2.DION LENNOX
It is clear as day that the fed sees something in this kid. Likely already booked in the stars as a future NXT World Heavyweight Champion, Dion Lennox looks like a star and has shown he can go too. Another name that would have fit within the ranks of The Vision, maybe Lennox is better off a solo act. But Lennox isn't like others that have been called up and will likely get lost in the shuffle if called up in the near future. Dion Lennox would need a big name to vouch for him, and Heyman is always has an eye out for talent. Throw some D's into the midcard in the form of some Dion Lennox victories over names like Gargano or The Miz to impress the masses. Dion Lennox seems like a safe bet to put your money on if you pair him with Heyman. If they really see something in this cat, they may as well go all in.
1.OBA FEMI
You might see Oba and Brock's matchups as a fight over who is the king of the mountain, but for Heyman this is just another recruitment opportunity. The Vision isn't working out, and Lesnar may not be the big scary goon he used to be. Heyman knows the window is closing and he will need a big name to hitch his wagon to if he hopes to stay afloat. Heyman has ditched his clients for bigger name before and this may be what's happening here too. Oba Femi doesn't need anyone to speak on his behalf, but as you can see from his Open Challenge, no one stepped up. Heyman would have forced Pearce to line up opponents for Oba had he been his manager sooner. Heyman would put Oba Femi on the same level as your Lesnars and Cenas and Punks, without having to climb through the midcard. Strike the iron whilst it's ablaze and thrust Oba Femi straight through that hole in the O-Zone layer, past the Stratusphere and the Stratosphere, and right into the field of night stars. And sure Oba Femi can get there without Heyman, but Heyman will make sure he gets there in a high-end limo. Later Lesnar, there's a new beast in town.
