Love him or hate him, it’s hard to argue with the success that Logan Paul has found with most of the things he sets his mind to.
Among them is professional wrestling, which Logan has taken up rather recently. But despite his lack of experience, the YouTube star hasn’t looked even the slightest bit out of place — even when he’s had to share the ring with some of the best in the business.
That was once again the case over the weekend, when Logan Paul appeared at WWE’s “Money In The Bank” pay-per-view event. Paul helped open the show by competing in the Money In The Bank ladder match against Damian Priest, Butch, LA Knight, Ricochet, Santos Escobar, and Shinsuke Nakamura.
With a contract for a men’s championship match at stake, Paul put his body on the line throughout the grueling 20 minute bout. And while he would not emerge victorious at the end (Damian Priest won the match), he would earn a ton of respect for his performance.
After the match, WWE Chief Content Officer and legendary Hall Of Famer, Triple H, showered Logan Paul with some high praise:
“Logan Paul showing again why I cannot believe he does what he does and is as good as he is. He has no right to be as good as he is this early doing this, but damn it he is. My hat is off to him. He is fearless and when you’re looking at a guy like that on the ‘Holy crap’ moment, hanging with Ricochet on a ‘holy crap’ level, like you don’t even really need to say anything more than that.”
Paul clearly earned that praise, too. For proof, just look at the beating his body took, as the YouTuber showed off his nasty scar following the match:
