Love him or hate him, Paul is good at being a manager. He worked wonders for Brock and gave a voice to the "voiceless" CM Punk during his biggest run. When Ziggler was at his best, he had Vickie Guerrero. There are plenty of others from the past that did amazing things for wrestlers who were not as great on the mic.

I feel like it is something there should be more of. Some of these men and women do fine on the mic but many of them struggle. This is partially to do with heavy scripting and partially to do with lack of natural talent for it. This can improve over time, some end up being really good on the mic but for many others, it still seems to be a bit of struggle. Not hating on them, I am sure it is hard work.

Do you think that managers should be a more prevalent thing in WWE today?
Who do you think would be a great manager and for which wrestler?

Do you think that managers should be a more prevalent thing in WWE today? Yes, if it fits the character or as a way to bring heat to an upcoming heel kind of like Vega and Almas

Who do you think would be a great manager and for which wrestler? Dolph would be decent and could be used to help a heel get over or such.

Heyman only works well with Brock now.. Besides him, you would have to go back to WCW when he was a good manager with the Dangerous Alliance.. He's had more failures in WWE as a manager than successes.

Yes, managers should be more prevalent. It's a good way to get someone over who has trouble speaking, look at Zelena Vega with Almas. It could work well

Yeah, I think one of the reasons WWE has been so bad for a while now is the lack of managers. The job of the manager, giving a voice to someone who really doesn't have one and to create heat is really lacking.

I like the idea that every big wrestler has it's own team. You got your entorage, manager, coach, assistant coaches and promotor.

Heyman isn't really a manager. He is a promoter. We need more promoters and other non wrestling personalities.
