In an interview with Michael Morales Torres of Lucha Libre Online, the former WCW United States Champion sounded highly impressed with Roman Reigns’ current storyline in WWE, with particular emphasis on Reigns’ special counsel Paul Heyman:

Konnan continued to praise the work of Paul Heyman, who has been at Roman Reigns’ side since his shocking return at SummerSlam last year. Konnan said it was the “little things” that Paul Heyman does that make all the difference:

Given Paul Heyman’s experience in playing this kind of role, it should come as no surprise to anyone that he is able to produce his best work when he is helping to build and legitimize whichever superstar he is partnered with.

Roman Reigns has been very well received since his return

Since adopting his “Tribal Chief” gimmick on SmackDown and finally reclaiming the Universal Championship not long after his return, Roman Reigns has looked virtually unstoppable.

Granted, several of his wins have come thanks to drastic interference from his cousin Jey Uso, with whom Reigns shared two excellent matches last year, but this has not stopped both fans and critics alike from laying praise on The Head of the Table.

Reigns is currently locked in a viscious feud with Kevin Owens on SmackDown. The Universal Champion was able to overcome Owens at TLC and on SmackDown, thanks to assistance from Jey Uso once again.
