For the last few years WWE has mostly stayed away from pairing Superstars with managers, but it appears that company officials are now seeing the value in this concept.
Paul Heyman is obviously a perfect fit for Brock Lesnar, and whether you love him or hate him you have to admit that Lio Rush has done wonders for Bobby Lashley.
Now it seems that EC3 could be getting a manager, as he was paired with Drake Maverick prior to SmackDown Live this week.
Drake Maverick and EC3 previously worked together in Impact Wrestling.
Unfortunately the support from his manager just wasn’t enough for EC3, as he lost the match to Luke Harper.
Do you want to see Maverick and EC3 paired together on WWE programming?
