Paul Heyman’s new crew of heels is beginning to take the entire main roster by storm. With possession of the Money In the Bank briefcase ahead of SummerSlam, the faction is reportedly planned for major happenings and possible new members, and now sources have provided inside updates.
WWE pulled a series of swerves to form the current stable of top RAW heels, led by Heyman: Seth Rollins, Bron Breakker, and Bronson Reed. The Visionary captured the Money In the Bank briefcase this past week at the PLE, and there have been encounters or teased showdowns with names like LA Knight, Gunther, Cody Rhodes, and Jey Uso, among others.
The Wise Man took to his Instagram Stories this week to dismiss a report making the rounds on how Ricky Saints and Ethan Page were being considered for a call-up to RAW to join Rollins, Breakker, and Reed. It was noted how WWE had talks to expand Heyman’s group, and two prospective members were the current NXT North American Champion and the former Ricky Starks of AEW.
“Since it’s not #AprilFoolsDay, I guess it’s #ClickbaitThursday,” Heyman wrote in response to the rumors.
Knight has been the subject of rumors and speculations lately due to the angle with Heyman’s crew. As the WWE Draft 2025 gets closer, sources have revealed that there actually are big plans in the works for The Megastar.
LA Knight Planned For More WWE RAW Appearances
LA Knight is set to be featured more on WWE RAW, at least in the near future. However, The Wrestling Observer Newsletter noted that the former Eli Drake was not moving to the red brand’s roster right now, but he would be on the show at times for the new feud with Paul Heyman, Seth Rollins, and the rest.
The Megastar and the heel faction are being moved back-and-forth for their ongoing rivalry as officials once again ease up on a rule that has been a hot topic of debate and complaint for years. The Observer added that the WWE rule on brand exclusivity was not strict at all right now, but it remains to be seen when that could change.
Knight has never wrestled Rollins in singles action. He was defeated by Reed on NXT in March 2021 and then by Breakker in September of the same year.
