Logan Paul Shuts Down Unhappy WWE Rivals

Logan Paul WWE

Logan Paul has explained exactly why he’s already in a lofty position in WWE to his fellow stars unhappy about how highly featured he is.

Logan Paul received a World Heavyweight Title shot at Saturday Night’s Main Event that almost had a shocking conclusion. WWE Champion John Cena tried to help Paul defeat Jey Uso until his plan was thwarted by a returning Cody Rhodes.

Rhodes and Uso will now team up at Money In The Bank to face Logan Paul and John Cena in a huge tag team match. But given that Paul has only had 20 matches in his wrestling career, some of his fellow WWE stars aren’t thrilled that the YouTuber is continuing to get these opportunities.

Logan Paul Asks Who’s Watching Other WWE Stars

Speaking in his latest vlog, Logan Paul sent a strong message to his fellow WWE stars unhappy at his elevated position and explained that his profile earned him that right:

It’s my understanding that some of my peers are not happy that I get these shots so quickly in my career. Let me break it down for you.

In your simple brains, do you think I’m here because I go viral? You see the numbers and you think that’s why I’m here. No. The reason that I’m here, the reason that I’m given these opportunities so early in my career is a) because I’m fantastic, but b) because I’ve been getting those impressions for a decade now.

And with those impressions comes an audience, a fanbase, eyeballs. That’s why I’m here. Because people watch what I do. They care what I do.

Whether they’re on my team, they want me to win, whether they’re waiting for me to fail – doesn’t matter, they’re watching, and that’s the currency: Attention. So my question would be, for the people who have a problem with my position in the WWE – who’s watching you?
