Lately, we’ve seen a rise in quality when it comes to celebrities entering a WWE ring. In particular, Bad Bunny & Logan Paul have impressed fans and critics alike with their exploits in the squared circle.
Paul in particular has impressed in two major singles matches, facing Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns at Crown Jewel 2022, and Seth Rollins at WrestleMania 39. Despite losing both matches, Paul earned the respect of WWE fans – and of Rollins.
Seth Rollins Felt The Pressure In Working With The Inexperienced Logan Paul At WrestleMania 39
While speaking with Mark Andrews, Seth Rollins had the following to say about his WrestleMania 39 opponent.
“It’s different. It’s 100% different. Obviously, there’s a lot more pressure on me to carry the weight of a match, carry the burden of a huge WrestleMania match where you’ve got someone like Logan Paul, who brings so many eyes that normally don’t pay any attention to our industry and put a huge spotlight on our industry at the biggest event of the year. So there’s a lot of pressure on you. The company is basically saying, ‘Here, we trust you to handle this and do this well.’ Then you’re in there with a guy who has very little experience.
I’ll say this about Logan. Say what you will about his personality and how he conducts himself outside of the ring and his different exploits and all that, I don’t pretend to comment or know about all that stuff. But he’s a hard-working cat, he is a hustler, and I don’t think you get to his level of success just kind of phoning it in. He’s a hustler, he did everything that he needed to do to get himself as ready as someone in his position could be for a match like that, and I think you saw the end result.
It’s on par with any of the other WrestleMania matches that I’ve ever had. That’s a testament to me and how fantastic I am, but also it’s a testament to him and how much hard work he put in, and got himself in the absolute best possible position to succeed. So it was a great time, and I’d love to do it again.”
