Paul Heyman is reportedly set to appear on Friday’s episode of “WWE SmackDown.” WrestleVotes reported the news shortly before the blue brand’s live airing. Heyman has served as “The Oracle” for one of WWE’s top factions, The Visionary.
World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins, Bron Breakker, and Bronson Reed are members of the stable, but they are “Monday Night Raw” performers. Some fans have speculated that Heyman might be reuniting with his former client Brock Lesnar for one night. Lesnar will address his “WWE Wrestlepalooza” match against John Cena in front of a live crowd at Huntington Center in Toledo.

History Between Paul Heyman and Brock Lesnar
Lesnar has been under the tutelage of Heyman since he made his main roster debut for WWE on March 18, 2002. While the two have split on WWE TV more than once, Lesnar and Heyman have long worked closely together behind the scenes. Heyman referred to himself as an advocate for Lesnar.
Will The Visionary Invade SmackDown?
The Visionary is currently involved in several feuds on “WWE Raw.” The group has had issues with the likes of LA Knight, Jey Uso, and CM Punk. The faction has also popped up on the blue brand in the past.

WWE United States Champion Sami Zayn has issued weekly open challenges with his title at stake. On Friday, Carmelo Hayes will challenge Zayn in an effort to secure his first major singles championship on the main roster.
That won’t be the only title on the line. WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Alexa Bliss and Charlotte Flair will defend the gold against Chelsea Green and Alba Fyre of The Secret Hervice.
There will also be a contract signing involving Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes and Drew McIntyre. They will make their scheduled title match at “WWE Wrestlepalooza” official.
