Logan Paul is a name that divides opinion among wrestling fans everywhere, but one former WWE star believes he’s better than just about everyone.
The host of the Impaulsive podcast and PRIME co-founder among many other accolades made his WWE debut at WrestleMania back in 2022.
Although he has operated on a part-time schedule, he has often found himself in high profile matches and working with the top talent in the company.
That idea is ringing true once more as Paul will line up alongside The Vision at War Games in two weeks facing off against Jey Uso, CM Punk, Cody Rhodes and Jimmy Uso.
Stevie Richards, well known for his spells in ECW and WWE – the latter where he fronted the memorable heel group Right to Censor – was full of praise for Paul on a recent episode of his podcast.
“Logan Paul is better than everybody in AEW. [Why?] Because he’s a character. I can hate or love Logan Paul, and he’s every bit as athletic as all of them. He’s proven it.
“You know what Logan Paul also does when he debuts something? Debuts a move, a spot, whatever he does. He doesn’t debut all 12 at the same time.
“He doesn’t give you everything. He makes sure something special happens in a Logan Paul match every time he has it.
“I remember mostly everything Logan Paul has been involved with. And I know you’re smirking because they’re going to come for me right now, but I’m saying he’s better than 98% of the WWE roster as well.
“So WWE fans can come after me. I think they should put the belt on Logan Paul.”
That’s quite the statement, to say the least. Logan is a supremely impressive athlete, no question.
Richards is also correct in the assertion that everything that Paul does, is memorable. He has a penchant for executing standout moments, but is he a worker in the realm of Seth Rollins, AJ Styles, Kenny Omega and so on?
He certainly resembles a future world champion in WWE if you know what they look for. He has the build/look for it, he has the charisma and he is more than capable of putting on an exciting match.
But is he better than 98% of all wrestlers in WWE and AEW right now? The 30-year-old is getting every chance to prove it, that’s for sure.
