Paul Heyman, known for his strategic brilliance, recently orchestrated a significant turn of events on RAW. Last week, chaos erupted when Bron Breakker betrayed Seth Rollins, leaving The Vision without a leader. This leadership vacuum presents an opportunity for Heyman, who might consider reaching out to an 8-time WWE champion to fill the gap.
Rumors suggest that Heyman could extend an intriguing proposition to CM Punk. By offering Punk the leadership of The Vision, Heyman could promise him everything he desires. Leveraging Punk’s tumultuous history with Rollins, Heyman might present this as an irresistible offer to his former ally.
Despite this potential proposal, CM Punk’s alliance with The Vision seems improbable. The Second City Saint has clashed with the faction in recent months. Just last week on RAW, Punk endured a brutal assault from Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed after securing a victory in his Number One Contender match.
Considering these events, CM Punk is more inclined toward seeking vengeance than aligning with The Vision. Fully aware of Heyman’s manipulative tactics, Punk is unlikely to join forces with The Wiseman. As an eight-time WWE champion, he is expected to forge his own path rather than resorting to such alliances.
Given the recent developments, CM Punk would rather look for revenge than extend an olive branch to The Vision. Moreover, he is well aware of Paul Heyman’s shenanigans and is very unlikely to stand shoulder to shoulder with The Wiseman. Punk, who is an eight-time champion in WWE, would rather look to do things on his own instead of taking the dark route.
Paul Heyman to put a major hurdle before CM Punk on RAW?
Last week on RAW, CM Punk won the Triple Threat Match against Jey Uso and LA Knight to earn a shot at the World Heavyweight Championship. He is set to battle Seth Rollins for the coveted title. However, this match may not take place, as Rollins’ injury might force him to vacate the world title on RAW.
Paul Heyman could exploit this situation and put a major hurdle in front of Punk. Normally, The Second City Saint should have faced Jey Uso or LA Knight for the world title if the championship were to be vacated. However, Heyman could put Bron Breakker into the World Heavyweight Championship picture.
The 60-year-old could do that to ensure that the coveted title remains out of CM Punk’s grasp. Paul Heyman, who has a great influence backstage, could force General Manager Adam Pearce to book Breakker vs. Punk for the World Heavyweight Championship if Seth Rollins vacates the title on RAW.
However, this is purely speculation and it will be interesting to see how things shape up. The upcoming episode of RAW will provide answers to all the questions that are currently on fans’ minds.
