Logan Paul and Rey Mysterio put up an equally tough battle in the ring. With the two almost closing each other for victory, Jeff Wittek dropped the win in the hands of ‘The Maverick.’ He helped Paul get hold of the brass knuckles, with the help of which he knocked out Rey Mysterio. While it wasn’t cheating in the eyes of the Impaulsive star, the WWE Universe wasn’t oblivious to his antics.
What is next for Logan Paul in WWE?
Logan Paul had established a name for himself in the world long before stepping into the world of professional wrestling. However, the fame that ‘The Maverick’ attained in WWE is unmatched. His first title must have provided him with all the confidence to take on further challenges in the company.
With a controversial win, it is very clear that Rey Mysterio will not stay quiet about losing his title. Only this week’s episode of RAW and SmackDown will reveal what lies ahead for Logan Paul and Rey Mysterio’s storyline in WWE. In addition to this, Ricochet had a great storyline with the Youtuber turned WWE star in the past and this could be the best time to reignite their feud.
Being a midcard title, it is sure that Logan Paul will not stop here. He had already challenged Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship at Crown Jewel 2022 and his journey during this time period is commendable. With one title in hand, it would be interesting to note how ‘The Maverick’ will put his capabilities to the test.

Also, looking at the WWE’s iconic pattern of rivalries and betrayals, there are high chances that Logan Paul’s close ones betrays him and takes the title away from him. Whatever the case may be, it is sure to give the WWE Universe a great time building the hype for the championship.
