Logan Paul is not having enjoyable, man.
When Nick Aldis introduced to the followers in Memphis, Tennessee, and watching SmackDownthe world over that Logan Paul was going to be defending the USA Championship in a Triple Risk match at WrestleMania 40 in opposition to Kevin Owens and Randy Orton, it earned a horrible response from the “Maverick.”
All of the sudden, after having to tug out all the stops to retain his belt in a match in opposition to KO on the Royal Rumble, a match he needed to cheat to get out of along with his reign intact, Paul would quickly be tasked with defending his strap in opposition to the “Prize Fighter,” and one of the vital embellished champions in WWE historical past.
Discussing his rapid response to the information in a WWE Digital Unique, Paul aired out his frustrations, noting that this isn’t what he signed up for and his lawyer might be consulted on the information transferring ahead.
“I’m sorry, a Triple Risk Match? Is that even authorized? Is that even, like- how does that even make sense? There are two folks in opposition to me? However, like, how does that even work? This complete, I’ll let you know what- this complete factor is… somebody’s in serious trouble. Somebody’s gonna hear from my lawyer for positive. That is- can I swear? That is ****. Triple risk match? Man, what’re you gonna inform me subsequent, I can’t fly personal to those? I’ve been getting gypped, backstage like a bit of pawn. A bit of pawn on this recreation. And for what? I’m not the pawn, I’m a king. I’m the king, at the least,” Logan Paul informed followers in a WWE Digital Unique.
“Randy Orton. ‘Randy Orton Kevin Owens. Randy O- your opponent is Randy Orton, and Kevin Owens.’ Shut up. Shut up, you sound so silly. You sound so dumb saying that. We don’t need a Triple Risk Match. Give me one or the opposite, I’ll smack them up any time, any day of the week, I don’t care. However each? ‘Your opponent is Randy Orton.’ Shut up. ‘And Kevin Owens.’ Shut your- shut your mouth, silly. What are you, silly? You’d be good if you happen to weren’t so… d*mn silly. This place sucks, dude.”
Sadly for Paul, defending a title in a three-way, four-way, five-way, and even six-way is completely authorized in WWE, as his match at WrestleMania 40 is not the one one being performed beneath multi-man guidelines. Nonetheless, contemplating each KO and Orton actually do not like him, they usually’ll each possible be focusing on him of their match collectively, the Steiner math is not wanting too good for an additional profitable title protection by the “Maverick” on the “Showcase of the Immortals.”

TKO is a publicly traded firm, they’ve to fulfill a backside line. That spot was going to be offered. We noticed a chance, and probably a chance to make folks hate me much more, as a result of I’m a heel, that’s form of the angle I took.
