Why Logan Paul Believes WWE Needs Him

Logan Paul

Logan Paul feels he brings significant value to WWE.

It was announced by Logan Paul in early January that he signed a new deal with WWE to make him a full-time member of the roster.

After being a part-timer for the previous three years, Paul has committed to WWE, and he has appeared on Monday Night Raw regularly along with his cohorts in The Vision, and he was also in the Men’s Royal Rumble match.

While speaking to The Takedown on SI, Logan Paul claimed he’s so good at being a WWE superstar that the company needs him to be around more often.

“I realized I’m too good to leave all that meat on the bone. The WWE needs me. They need me. The audience needs me, because there is no one like me. I needed to inject more of myself in this business that I am so clearly gifted in.

It took me 27 years to realize, I was born to be a wrestler. And you look at the roster, you got some absolute gangsters in there, Bron Breakker, Bronson Reed, Austin theory, my wise man now, Paul Heyman, but you didn’t have a Logan Paul.”

Logan Paul Feels Like He Was Born To Wrestle

Prior to his WWE debut earlier in the decade, Logan Paul gained fame as a YouTuber, a podcaster, a celebrity boxer, and did what he could to get noticed as a celebrity. Now that he’s part of WWE on a regular basis, Paul told The Takedown that he feels like he was born to be a WWE superstar.

“I was born to wrestle. Every single skill set that I’ve garnered throughout the entirety of my life has culminated into an ability that is the WWE, from the showmanship to the storytelling to the improv and the intuition that comes with being a wrestler.

To the physicality, which almost isn’t even first, but after I check all those boxes with big green check marks, finally you get to the physicality. And that’s my best.”

Logan Paul has also taken shots at NFL players, claiming they can succeed in WWE, even though many in the company have football backgrounds.
