Jim Ross Give Huge Props To Paul Heyman For Helping Roman Reigns

The drastic change in character for Roman Reigns over the years has been well documented. He went from being an utterly dull babyface to one of the most compelling heels in WWE. He also isn’t a stranger when it comes to accolades in the company.

Roman Reigns was an eyesore for many when he was a babyface and fans and pro wrestlers alike agreed with this notion. This is in spite of the fact that Reigns competed in high profile matches against the very best.

Many fans also agree with the fact that having Paul Heyman as Roman Reigns’ special counsel helped elevate him to the top. Roman Reigns agrees with that fact as he considers Heyman a great weapon in his arsenal.

While speaking on the Grilling JR podcast, Jim Ross stated that Paul Heyman deserves credit for making Roman Reigns one of the biggest stars in WWE’s recent memory.

“Also, Heyman’s got a great eye for talent. He’s proven that time and again. He’s proving it now. He’s making Roman Reigns one of the biggest stars in WWE’s recent history.”

Roman Reigns is set to defend his WWE Universal Championship against Brock Lesnar on Day 1 on January 1st, 2022. It remains to be seen how their feud will be booked in the coming weeks.
