Logan Paul Comes up Short at WrestleMania
The lead-up to this matchup featured Seth Rollins questioning the stand-out celebrity’s commitment to WWE. Rollins has been on WWE’s main roster since 2012 and had almost a decade of experience before he debuted. Logan Paul rose to prominence before signing with WWE and has only been an active competitor with the wrestling promotion for the last year. Their storyline consistently included clashes on social media and references to Paul’s boxing career, further playing into Paul’s real-life star power. Logan Paul frequently attacked Rollins and cost him a shot at the United States Championship at Elimination Chamber in Montreal. Once the bell rang, Rollins and Paul showcased their signature athleticism featuring the maverick lariat and several suicide dives between the two. The athleticism of Logan Paul has been on full display since he debuted in WWE.
