Paul Heyman’s backstage influence in WWE is well‑known. In 2019, during his stint as RAW’s Executive Director, Styles was kept in the United States Championship picture, and The Good Brothers were not presented as a major threat. When Gallows and Anderson were released during the pandemic, Styles accused Heyman of dishonesty, believing he was the key figure behind their departure.
While both have since said there’s no real‑life heat, WWE could use this history to build a storyline where Heyman pushes for Styles’ exit, potentially leading to a feud with Seth Rollins and The Vision, and even a short‑term Good Brothers return.
