Several WWE stars went on Twitter and commented on Michael McGillicutty being re-packaged as Curtis Axel on RAW last night:

Chris Jericho: "Proud & excited for the debut of #CurtisAxel! He’s been waitin for this his whole life. Somewhere Mr Perfect is smiling his mischievous grin"

Curt Hawkins: "Couldn't be happier for the former @WWEMcGillicutty ...& don't worry about me guys. Nobody has ever refered to me as "Curtis". I'm ok. #RAW"

Howard Finkel: "Curtis Axel has become a WWE household name over the last 15 min.. Opportunity knocks, and I think that he'll open the door and embrace it"

Ezekiel Jackson: "Curtis axel... Kid deserves it... Congrats bud"

Tyson Kidd: "Curt Axel has some amazing music. Natural from day 1, he doesn't know his own potential. He can go in the ring #Raw"

Dolph Ziggler: "genuinely proud of @WWEMcGillicutty go get em, kid! (curt axel)"

Mick Foley: "I think @RealCurtisAxel has a real shot at getting over. Otherwise, the master (@HeymanHustle) wouldn't be guiding him"

The Bella Twins: "Everything Paul touches turns to gold.... We see money in Curt Axel #RAW"

Lance Storm: "Anyone who thinks Curt Axel as new @HeymanHustle guy is a miss, doesn't understand building to the future. #RAW"

Paul Heyman: "I always wanted to manage @RealCurtisAxel's father. A better-than-Perfect debut tonight! WWE #RAW"

I'm cautiously optimistic that WWE will properly book him. Heyman will probably get say in how he is booked which is a huge boost for the guy's career

The guys great, I've seen him wrestle on NXT before and he was a delight to watch.

Not getting to excited yet though, this is WWE after all....

I wonder if Heyman had any input or say into who this third client of his got to be on-screen based on who Heyman might have seen potential in. It was once said that Heyman told WWE to bring up John Cena to the main roster before other various WWE officials felt he was ready because Heyman could see that he had the potential to be a huge star of the future. Looking back on it now, Heyman saw something in Cena long before anyone else did. It's no wonder, people have always said that Heyman's eye for talent is on par with Vince's. Look at those who passed through ECW and then ended up becoming a huge star later on in WWF/E... Steve Austin being the biggest example. Heyman saw something in him in WCW as well as ECW and Vince didn't even believe in the guy when he first came to WWF. But he ended up becoming one of the biggest stars of all time.

So, I'm quite optimistic about Curt's future if Heyman had any say in who this third client was. Considering the bloodline he comes from, you'd assume he was talented anyway, but there's also quite a few offspring of good/great people (wrestling and otherwise) who don't live up to the standards of their parent(s), so you never can tell just based on that.

Glad to see so much young talented wrestlers are getting pushes this year :obama: Shield, Big E, and now even Curtis. Not bad at all, I hope WWE continues to mold more future stars, and push young talent of today.

While it is well documented that Perfect Jr. is well liked by guys like HHH/Rock, I definitely have to think Heyman had some say in the selection.

Bork is also a major fan of him apparently.
