Logan Paul makes a bold claim.
The social media mega star has become a consistent member of the WWE roster since making his debut at WrestleMania 38. He would sign with the company later that summer on a full time deal that ended at WrestleMania 39. However, the company would re-sign him following the event.
Logan recently spoke with Stephen A. Smith for his podcast and claimed that he was the final man signed by Vince McMahon to WWE.
“I’m not here to take part. I’m here to take over. it’s my DNA. it’s how I’m wired,” he said. “I was the last Superstar signed by Vince McMahon. After my first match, he took me backstage, and he said, ‘Your future is here,’ and I understand the weight of those words coming from him. So, to be honest with you, if I wanted to be the face of WWE, if I wanted to give this industry my all, I know I could. It’s just a decision I have to make. It’s a switch I have to flip.”
“It’s also up to the fans. Do they resonate with me? They might think I come in there and not like my arrogant, cocky, conceited nature, and might think I’m the outsider forever, even though I’m actively doing five PLEs a year. I’ve got some convincing to do, but I’m there in my head. If I want to be WWE Champion, I can do it,”
Logan Paul
Paul is scheduled to face off with Ricochet on tonight’s show in singles action. We will have to wait and see how much longer Logan remains a WWE superstar, but he is surely becoming more and more known for his abilities within the squared circle.
