WTF!! Logan Paul Suddenly Breaks Character For Top WWE Star
Logan Paul can be seen making a bold claim about himself and a top WWE star in a recent clip on his YouTube channel.
Logan Paul is an internet celebrity turned full-time wrestler. While many celebrities have tiptoed with pro wrestling in the past (Mike Tyson, Donald Trump), and even do so in modern times (Jelly Roll, Lil Yachty, IShowSpeed), Paul is a rare individual who seems to have embraced pro wrestling completely and has wholeheartedly made it his main thing.
Dubbed as The Maverick, Paul is currently one half of the World Tag Team Champions alongside Austin Theory, his factionmate from The Vision, the most dangerous heel faction on the company’s red brand.
Logan Paul is natural at playing the heel who runs his mouth and is ever ready to say that he is one of the best to ever do it or the best pro-wrestler and talker working in the current generation whenever he gets the chance.
In a recent YouTube video on his massively popular YouTube channel, he can be seen watching Brock Lesnar vs Oba Femi at WrestleMania 42 on night 2. Once the match ends and Femi wins, Paul praises him for being the top new star that he is, but immediately injects himself into the conversation of who will be the future of the WWE.
Hey, credit where credit’s due, bro. Oba Femi is a force to be reckoned with. He came on the scene quick.
Logan Paul goes on to say that the competition at the top is tougher than ever and says this type of competition only comes along once in a lifetime.
There’s gonna be some real competition about who’s gonna be the face of this company. You know what, though? This excites me. ‘Cause this level of competition happens few times in a generation.
When I look at Oba Femi and I look at his ability and I look at my ability and I know what I can do in this sport, I know, guys like him, guys like me, we can literally define an era if we do this right.
The future of this company is going to be exciting. (2:38 onwards)
Logan Paul and Austin Theory Are In The Midst Of A New Feud With A Returning Tag Team
Logan Paul and Austin Theory won the World Tag Team Titles when they defeated the Usos with some unintentional help from internet celebrity IShowSpeed at ringside during the match.
This mishap led to a 6-man tag team match at WrestleMania 42, which opened the event that had Paul, Austin Theory, and IShowSpeed on one team going up against the Usos and LA Knight. They lost that bout and are yet to defend their Tag Team Titles.
On Raw, as Paul and Theory tried to beat up Seth Rollins, who had attacked their Vision factionmate Bron Breakker, they were thwarted by the Street Profits (Angelo Dawkins and Montez Ford), who made their WWE return after months of absence.
The Street Profits have come out to brawl with Paul and Theory twice now, and it would be interesting to see if it leads to a Tag Team Title match between both teams at Backlash on May 9th.
