It would, but honestly, Paul Heyman is a genius, he knows how to build characters, he knows how to tell stories, and he understands business.

One of the great interviews on Stone Colds broadcast years ago went into a discussion of protecting finishing moves, he talked about being able to make a sleeper hold a devastating finishing move if you protect it. (Stampede Wrestling made the sleeper look like attempted murder). Now we have wrestlers kicking out of finishing moves multiple times in a match.

But Heyman needs to have a filter personality to reign in some of his creative ideas.

It also sounds like Heyman who now has a good relationship with Stephanie is working in creative with WWE.
