26-year-old star teases being the next Paul Heyman guy; The Wiseman is in touch with him
An up-and-coming star, who has had stints in both WWE and AEW, has seemingly teased being the next Paul Heyman guy. Parker Boudreaux, dubbed the "Next Brock Lesnar," recently dropped the hint in the comments section of an Instagram post.
When Boudreaux entered the wrestling business after signing with WWE in 2021, he quickly became the talk of the town due to his physical similarities with Brock Lesnar. However, things didn't pan out as expected as his stint with the promotion ended just over a year later in April 2022. Even in AEW, where he joined a few months later, his career didn't take off due to untimely injuries.
Boudreaux was eventually let go from All Elite Wrestling in April 2024 and he has since then been active on the indie circuit. Amid this, the 26-year-old has dropped an interesting hint about his future. WWE recently posted a clip of Paul Heyman's promo from last week's episode of SmackDown on Instagram.
Among the sea of comments, one that stood out was that of Parker Boudreaux, who teased that he could be the next Heyman guy.
"#HeymanGuy," he said.

Boudreaux also previously revealed that he has been in touch with the WWE Hall of Famer and that the former also sent the legend his matches in Japan to review.
Parker Boudreaux commented on being in touch with Paul Heyman even after leaving WWE
A couple of months back in an interview, Boudreaux revealed that he was in regular touch with Paul Heyman and that he was guiding him in his journey in the wrestling business.
He added that he felt grateful to be mentored by The Wiseman and that the WWE legend was impressed with his series of matches in Japan.
"Such a legend, talk highly about me because he’s obviously managed some of the biggest stars of all-time, like I said, it’s inspiring for sure… I sent him my matches in Japan. He’s reviewing them now so, yeah man, he likes to see my work and I think he’s excited about this Japan thing so, I’m excited. It’s a true honor and privilege," said Boudreaux.
Considering he's still 26 years old, Boudreaux has plenty of time to improve his craft and potentially find his way back to WWE down the line.
