Aug 10, 2023
Logan Paul picked up his first WWE victory since defeating The Miz at SummerSlam 2022 at this year's version of the event, when he pinned Ricochet in the show's opener.
Speaking about the match on a recent edition of his IMPAULSIVE podcast, Logan noted that while he believes he's gotten better at the 'mechanics' of wrestling, he admitted to getting tired while wrestling The King of Flight.
"I've gotten better with the mechanics of my wrestling moves. SummerSlam was fun. I was really tired in there. I was exhausted, for some reason. Especially trying to focus on the match and perform, while I'm tired, and also knowing the weight of the night ahead. That wasn't even the most exciting part of the night for me. We have a flight to Dallas to get to. I literally exited the ring, still sweating, huffing and puffing, into the SUV, onto the jet, to Dallas, made it with time to spare. It was a night to remember," he said.
Logan had requested to open the show in order to attend his brother Jake's boxing match with Nate Diaz.
Regarding his opponent, Paul was very complimentary. He also expressed his desire to perform in WWE while competing in boxing going forward.
"People really responded to our match. Ricochet is so good. So good. He made it easy to look good. It was a fun match. I'm interested to see how this conversation continues and my WWE career, story arc, happens with this boxing weaving in. I want to hop back and forth. I don't think it's ever been done. A dual, combat sport, back and forth. It's cool. I want to find a way to weave the conversations".
Logan will fight Dillon Dalis on October 14.
