Cody Rhodes to become the next Paul Heyman Guy? Here's why WWE might've hinted it!

WWE might soon pull off another shocking swerve for fans. On the post-Crown Jewel edition of RAW, Paul Heyman and The Vision turned on Seth Rollins and attacked him, much to everyone's surprise. This incident has now sparked speculation among fans about who will become the next Paul Heyman Guy.

Now, given the rumors floating about who will replace Rollins in The Vision, one name seems to be missing from the speculation: Cody Rhodes. This is likely because he has been portrayed as the good guy since his return. However, what if the Stamford-based promotion pulls a major swerve and has Cody align with The Oracle and take over the leadership of The Vision?

Recently, WWE posted a video on its official YouTube channel featuring The American Nightmare, Roman Reigns, CM Punk, and Brock Lesnar, alongside Triple H and Paul Heyman, to promote WrestleMania 42. It appears that Reigns, Punk, and Lesnar were all Heyman Guys at some point, Cody being the only exception.

Many now believe that this could be a subtle hint from the company that the Undisputed WWE Champion might potentially align himself with The Oracle, possibly before The Show of Shows. If this is confirmed, there might be no better moment for the Stamford-based promotion to execute this unexpected twist than at Saturday Night's Main Event XLI.

The American Nightmare is scheduled to defend the Undisputed WWE Championship against Drew McIntyre tomorrow at the upcoming event. Over the past few weeks, The Scottish Warrior has seemingly gained the upper hand over Cody Rhodes on SmackDown. Moreover, Cody had to use the title as a weapon against McIntyre in his last defense.

Therefore, there is a great possibility that the 40-year-old might be close to dethroning the reigning champion and capturing the gold tomorrow night. However, with a plethora of possibilities open at the event, The Vision might interfere during the showdown and help The American Nightmare retain the Undisputed WWE Championship.

Since Cody Rhodes already teased a heel turn two weeks ago on the blue brand, he might eventually embrace his sinister side and align himself with Paul Heyman as The Vision's newest leader as part of a blockbuster storyline.

However, this angle is speculative, and nothing in this regard has been confirmed.

Drew McIntyre could finally win the Undisputed WWE Championship as a face

If the above scenario plays out, it might lead to Drew McIntyre turning face on SmackDown. Since McIntyre is determined to capture the Undisputed WWE Championship, he might challenge Cody Rhodes for the title again after potentially losing to him at SNME XLI.

If this happens, The Scottish Warrior might be booked to finally dethrone The American Nightmare and capture the gold in a shocking twist. However, this angle is also speculative.
