YouTube sensation Logan Paul recently made his highly-anticipated in-ring debut at WrestleMania 38. He had teamed up with The Miz and squared off against The Mysterios in a tag team bout that panned out extremely well.
Logan Paul fires back at the fans
Logan Paul was quite impressive many with his performance in the match, as he and The Miz ended up winning as well. While speaking on his podcast, Impaulsive, Logan Paul blasted those who call pro wrestling fake:
“It is electric. When there is someone you love in that ring and doing those moves….by the way, I didn’t practice any of those moves. That surface is hard, it is not bouncy, it is not a trampoline, there is no give. It is plywood, it’s wood. ‘Wrestling is fake.’ Shut the f**k up, I am sore. The left side of my body kills me right now. Those are real slams, they hurt. In practice even, doing those moves, you’re going to compromise your body ahead of the match.”
At ‘The Show of Shows,’ the heel duo would come out on top after Miz hit Rey with the Skull Crushing Finale to pick up the win. ‘The A-Lister’ even double cross ‘The Maverick’ as he hit a Skull Crushing Finale on him as well during the post-match celebrations inside the ring. This left Logan in shock. Logan Paul also worked as a babyface when he was involved in WrestleMania 37. However, the fans have never taken to him in that role. They have been consistently booing him, even during his hometown appearance in Cleveland.
Dave Meltzer on the latest edition of Wrestling Observer Radio reported that Logan Paul had negotiated becoming a babyface by the end of his WWE run and what happened at WrestleMania might be the indication of a possible babyface turn.
