Rather than following in anyone’s footsteps, WWE’s latest powergroups are setting up a new bar.
According to Fightful Selecta new stable featuring Seth Rollins, Paul Heyman and Bron Blakeker – Life after WrestleMania– It is not intended to elicit comparisons with legendary factions of the past, such as evolution or dangerous alliances. A close-creative WWE source said he agreed with the sentiment that the group should “In contrast to following the previous template, it will be a future stable in the future compared to other stables.”
The current plan as of WrestleMania’s weekend is that the group remains with only Heyman, Rollins and Breakker, and there are no additional members for now. Of course, it can always change the line, but the internal work plan is to keep the trio intact as it establishes control on its own terms.
The group immediately influenced Bron Blakeker’s rule of Rome and CM Punk in the Mania Aftermania Show. WWE later released behind the scenes footage of Rollins, Heyman and Blakeker that Rollins declared. “We control everything, we control everything. We remember that.” Hayman has been added “Yeah. They know now, and there’s nothing they can do about it.” Breakker ended the clip with Woof signing the camera.
With this lineup and its mission to carve out its own heritage rather than copying others, WWE’s landscape seems to be trying to change in a big way.
