Paul Heyman’s cabinet of nicknames is as rich as the list of superstars managed throughout his legendary career. During his time with Brock Lesnar, he was known as ‘The Advocate’, and when he aligned with Roman Reigns, he took on the role of ‘The Wiseman’. Now, with his recent alliance with Seth Rollins, fans speculated he might adopt a new moniker once again. And with a recent social media post, the Hall of Famer has confirmed those suspicions to be true.

Taking to social media, the former ECW head honcho shared a message directed at the WWE Universe and the entire locker room and posted a photo of himself with Rollins. In the caption, the Hall of Famer acknowledged that fans are correctly assessing the situation and that he is well aware of the conspiracy theories surrounding ‘The Visionary’ and his new alliance. Most notably, he referred to himself as “The Oracle,” seemingly confirming his new role in this evolving partnership.

In general, the term ‘Oracle’ refers to divine wisdom or guidance, advice believed to come from the gods. In the context of the ongoing storyline, Rollins earned Heyman’s guidance by defeating both CM Punk and Roman Reigns in the main event of Night 1 of WrestleMania 41. This highlights Heyman’s immense value as an advisor, making ‘The Oracle’ a fitting and powerful new moniker for him moving forward.

Additionally, Rollins referred to the WWE legend as ‘The Oracle’ on the June 23rd edition of Monday Night Raw, further fueling speculation. Shortly after, WWE filed a trademark for the name, sparking rumors that it could become Heyman’s official title. With his recent social media post, it’s now all but confirmed that the 59-year-old Hall of Famer will be working under this new moniker as part of his alliance with Seth Rollins.

Paul Heyman Could Add a New Member to Seth Rollins’ Faction on Raw

Paul Heyman has quickly become a dominant force alongside Seth Rollins on Monday Night Raw. With Heyman already adding Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed to Rollins’ group, there’s growing speculation that he may be eyeing another top-tier name to join this rising powerhouse on the red brand.

During this week’s episode of Raw, Heyman was seen talking to someone on the phone at the ringside. Since ‘The Architect’ was already present on the show, fans began speculating that Heyman was speaking with the next potential member of the faction. With Rollins set to face LA Knight at Saturday Night’s Main Event, there’s growing buzz that the new member could make their debut during that match.

Moreover, reports have suggested that WWE is eyeing NXT stars Ricky Saints and Ethan Page as potential additions to Rollins’ growing faction on Raw. These rumors now seem to align with Heyman’s recent teases, adding weight to the possibility of a major debut or alliance shift soon. However, as always, only time will tell what Triple H has in store for Rollins, Heyman, and their rising force on the red brand. Meanwhile, a legendary tag team champion had something to say about Rollins and his new group.

Bully Ray Questions Bronson Reed’s Addition to Seth Rollins and Paul Heyman’s Faction

Bronson Reed aligned with Seth Rollins and Paul Heyman at Saturday Night’s Main Event in May and has since become a key member of their faction. On Raw, he frequently teams up with Bron Breakker, solidifying his role within the group. However, WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray recently pointed out that Reed’s inclusion creates an awkward loophole in the storyline.

Speaking on Busted Open Radio, Ray backed his statement by referencing last year’s intense feud between Rollins and Reed. He pointed out that in 2024, the 330-pounder was determined to take down ‘The Architect’. Yet now, seemingly without explanation, both stars appear to have forgotten their past animosity.

I still want to know why, and maybe I missed it but I don’t think I did, tell me why you’re friends…with the guy who hit six Tsunami bombs on you, [and] tried to cave in your ribs, thus ending your career. Why are they friends? Have we gotten that yet.

The WWE Hall of Famer suggested that the company should offer fans some form of explanation for why Rollins chose to recruit Reed, despite their intense rivalry just last year. He noted that the lack of context creates a disconnect in the narrative, which could potentially impact the long-term dynamics and credibility of the storyline.
