Logan Paul recently returned to WWE after dropping the United States Championship to La Knight at SummerSlam. The main reason for him returning is because he wants to main event WrestleMania and challenge for the World Championship. During the latest episode of Raw, Paul faced off against WWE Hall of Famer Rey Mysterio.
The winner of this match would qualify for the Elimination Chamber match on March 1. Paul, who had already defeated Rey Mysterio previously, was very confident about himself. It seems like he was successful in backing himself as he pinned Rey to win the match.
However, it was noticed by everyone that Paul won the match with a new finisher. Instead of using a cheap tactic like the brass knuckles or a high-flying move, Paul decided to introduce a new move. This move is called the Paulverizer. It seems like this move causes a lot of damage to the opponent. The fans will be hopeful that WWE protects his finisher and does not allow everyone to kick out of it.
With Paul joining the likes of CM Punk, John Cena, and Drew McIntyre in the chamber, he does not seem to be a favorite to win it. This could possibly be a setup for his WrestleMania match. Paul could possibly be facing another superstar from the Chamber at WrestleMania. He was in the chamber last year as well and ended up setting his rivalry with Randy Orton there. This might be a repeat of what happened last year.
Fans react to Logan Paul’s new finisher
The WWE Universe has been quick to react to this new finisher of Logan Paul. He is normally known for his dirty tactics mixed with his high-flying ability. This move seems to be totally different from what his character represents. While the move looked amazing, there have been a lot of questions.
His new finisher requires him to lift his opponent up. While it managed to work on a lighter wrestler like Rey Mysterio, there have been questions about how he will manage to do it on a heavier superstar. This brings up the possibility that this move will not be used at the Elimination Chamber as all the men who have qualified for the match are heavy individuals. Here are some of the best reactions from fans:
The fans have also credited Logan for his in-ring work. They mentioned the match between Rey and Logan as the match of the night as well. While it is very unlikely that Logan will walk out of the chamber as the winner, it seems like his short run in the company is being backed by his full commitment.
