Logan Paul is a great signing for WWE as they have always been very good at bringing in celebrities who can help bring a new look to their product, but in this case (as with other recent celebrities (with partners, such as Bad Bunny) involved WWE as more than a business transaction. “It’s an evolution of how people recognize me when they see me on the streets, right?” He shares. “First it was ‘The Vine Guy,’ and then it became ‘I’ve seen your videos.’ Then it became ‘The YouTube Guy.’ Then it became “Yo, Paul… something, okay. ?” Then Logan Paul ‘WWE Superstar’.

One time I was on the ropes and he had me under his arm. Dude covered my mouth with his glove and held my breath for like two breaths. An advanced move that only Floyd Mayweather would know because he’s been boxing for 40 years. I’m positive that Roman. Will have a few things up his sleeve and I will take all of that and use it and have it in my arsenal when I become WWE Champion.
