Aligned with the powerful Paul Heyman, the WWE faction of Seth Rollins and Bron Breakker seems poised to grow in the months to come.
From stars that may be set to be called up to the main roster from NXT to others who may be about to undergo a major character shift, there are a variety of choices for who could become the next Paul Heyman guy.
Here are five WWE stars that could join the new Seth Rollins & Bron Breakker faction on WWE Raw.
5. Tony D’Angelo
Former NXT North American Champion Tony D’Angelo certainly seems to be wrapping up his time in NXT.
At Battleground, He is facing off against his “Underboss” Channing ‘Stacks’ Lorenzo, and after a history of people being written off of NXT by Tony D sending them to “sleep with the fishes”, it seems as though it could be his turn.
Bron Breakker recently took to Instagram to share photos of himself with real-life pal Tony D holding up some fish they had caught – which is just interesting timing.
Bringing D’Angelo into an entirely new family on the main roster would make sense as a path forward for the Don of NXT who seems poised to be called up to the main roster soon.

4. Austin Theory
In an interview with Newsweek last Summer, Paul Heyman gave a list of WWE stars that he would build the company around which included Seth Rollins, Bron Breakker as well as Austin Theory.
Theory was previously positioned to be a rising babyface, even potentially the “next John Cena”, but he has been part of A-Town Down Under since September 2023.
While Theory’s on-screen affiliation with Vince McMahon didn’t seem to endear Theory to fans, perhaps aligning with Paul Heyman would be an entirely different story.
Of note, Heyman also happened to name Rhea Ripley and Liv Morgan as female stars he would build the future around in that same interview.

3. Sami Zayn
Sami Zayn is set to team with CM Punk against Seth Rollins and Bron Breakker at the upcoming WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event.
However, it could be an iconic turn of events if Sami Zayn was to turn heel by the end of the broadcast on NBC and betray CM Punk as well.
Pushing Punk even further as an outsider – adding even more rage as a motivator – Zayn flipping to the other side isn’t that far fetched.
With Zayn seemingly lacking in creative direction since the end of his Bloodline storyline, it could be time for a major new program for the Canadian.

2. Ricky Saints
Another very interesting potential addition to Seth Rollins’ growing faction would be NXT North American Champion Ricky Saints.
With CM Punk having been instrumental in Saints’ AEW presentation during their shared work on Collision, it would be a remarkable storyline move to flip Saints on Punk.
Leveraging his working experience with Punk in AEW – which has in shoot interviews been described as positive – into potential fictional bitterness, there can be a total retcon of CM Punk’s backstage behavior in WWE canon through Saints.
Or more specifically, through Saints who in this moment of his career would be being heavily influenced by number one CM Punk hater, Seth Rollins – leading to multiple ways the dynamics could play out moving forward.

1. Dominik Mysterio
With the Judgment Day faction seemingly falling apart, it is possible the Dirty Dominik Mysterio will need a new alliance in the near future.
Mysterio was named by Paul Heyman in a Newsweek interview as someone he felt was key to the future of professional wrestling.
A clear fan favorite – with people loving to boo him but also secretly really happy for his big moments (or not so secretly at WrestleMania) – Mysterio is able to replicate that in-between status that the rest of the group shares.
Already a massive presence, with Paul Heyman helmed on-screen moments to really mature Dirty Dom from a lovable dirtbag into a cunning menace, the move could kick off stories for years ahead.
