At WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event, Paul Heyman’s new group took full shape, unveiling Bronson Reed as its latest member, joining Seth Rollins and Bron Breakker.
Returning from a serious leg injury suffered at Survivor Series, the powerhouse from Australia was thrust into the centre of WWE’s hottest faction.
With the numbers stacking up, it seems CM Punk and Sami Zayn may need to form a wider alliance to fight back.
To take on this newly formed Heyman Family, other factions could start to emerge – and here are five potential new groups that could rival Seth Rollins, Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed.
5. CM Punk, Roman Reigns & Sami Zayn
In their ongoing feud on WWE programming, Paul Heyman consistently seems one step ahead of CM Punk and Sami Zayn.
With Bronson Reed joining Heyman’s unit at Saturday Night’s Main Event, the numbers are stacking up against Punk and Zayn.
The obvious choice for backup would be Roman Reigns, who was also betrayed by Heyman at WrestleMania 41.
A faction uniting Reigns, Punk, and Zayn would be a true supergroup — with the promise of incredible trios matches between the factions.

4. Cody Rhodes & Jey Uso Faction
At WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event, Cody Rhodes returned to set up a tag match with Jey Uso against John Cena and Logan Paul at Money in the Bank.
Rhodes has an informal alliance with Uso dating back to their tag title run in 2023, and after MITB, as a team their focus may shift to Heyman’s faction – especially with Rollins eyeing Uso’s World Heavyweight Championship.
Jimmy Uso, currently stagnating without clear direction, could naturally be brought into the fold.
The result could be another major super faction — one capable of standing toe-to-toe with Heyman’s dominant group.

3. New Karrion Kross Faction
Karrion Kross has recently been making waves, publicly expressing frustration with his position in WWE and his “hunger” for more.
It appears to be a worked shoot — and it seems to be having its desired effect, with his name back in the conversation.
Reverting to the “Killer” Kross moniker and forming his own faction could be the springboard into the spotlight he’s chasing.
A group built from similarly underutilised talent like Andrade, Ludwig Kaiser, and Sheamus could make strong opponents for Heyman’s faction.

2. William Regel-led Faction
Since returning from his AEW stint – where he had a compelling run as manager of the Blackpool Combat Club – William Regal has only appeared sporadically on NXT programming.
Having him reprise his AEW role on Raw, leading a faction of fellow British grapplers, would be a strong addition to WWE’s flagship brand.
The group could feature his real-life son, NXT star Charlie Dempsey, rebranded as Charlie Regal.
Joining him could be New Catch Republic’s Tyler Bate and Pete Dunne, forming a hard-hitting, technically gifted UK stable to battle against Heyman’s group.

1. Luchador Stable
Given WWE’s recent acquisition of AAA, a new faction of luchadores would be a strong addition to Raw and thrilling opponents for Heyman’s group in faction warfare.
Reuniting the Lucha Brothers by bringing Rey Fénix over from SmackDown would be a compelling first move.
They could be joined by AAA star El Hijo del Vikingo, who was recently highlighted in a video package on Saturday Night’s Main Event, showcasing his breathtaking in-ring skills.
With Rey Mysterio sidelined by a groin injury and the LWO seemingly having run its course, Dragon Lee could round out the dynamic and show-stealing group.
