Logan Paul On His Commitment To WWE, Feels Weird Getting Cheered

On a recent episode of What’s Your Story? With Stephanie McMahon, Logan Paul discussed his vision for what he can contribute to WWE beyond the ring and more. Here are the highlights:

On His Creativity:

“I actually feel like we should take inspiration from kind of like the Attitude Era. Steph, I’m trying to get messy. I’m trying to take the s**t to the next level, Steph. Let me tell you something that I bring to the table that no other wrestler does: an actual brain. I have intellect, and it is being underutilized. Not just intelligence; I have a creative ability that I don’t think most of my peers have.

“I have ideas, they’re good ones. I want to be heard, I want to be heard because I think I can do what your dad did in elevating the WWE beyond just the WWE Universe. F**k the universe. We go inter-dimensional. I don’t want to just serve the audience. Yeah, the audience is great, whatever. You guys are gonna pay for your tickets, you’ll be there. You’re predictable. But what we want to do is reach fan bases beyond just the traditional WWE audience.”

On Being a Heel:

“I feel weird when people cheer. [McMahon agrees.] That’s insane. What an unrelatable thing to feel. Yeah, thet cheer, I’m like, ‘This ain’t the gimmick, bro! That’s not what we’re supposed to do!’”

On His Commitment to WWE:

“The two things at the moment that I’m most passionate about are number one, WWE. just because it encompasses everything that I’m interested in. It’s deeply fulfilling.”
