Booker T Understands Argument Against Logan Paul Getting WWE Universal Title Shot

Logan Paul is a well-known YouTuber who is currently signed to WWE and performs as a professional wrestler on their Raw brand. Logan is also recognized for making controversial statements. 

The Maverick recently made headlines after it was announced that he will be challenging Roman Reigns for the Undisputed Universal Titles at WWE Crown Jewel on November 5th.

Drew McIntyre made it clear that he has an issue with Logan Paul receiving a world title shot. While speaking on the Hall of Fame podcast, Booker T made it clear that he agrees with Drew McIntyre’s comments.

“You know, if I was on the roster, I may feel a little bit different about it. I’m not going to sit here and say, ‘Celebrities coming into the business is all great.’ I’m speaking from a promoter’s standpoint now. I’m thinking from a perspective where, ‘I’m running the company, I can’t be thinking about what some wrestler is thinking of or how he’s feeling.

I do understand where Drew McIntyre is coming from, 100%. As a performer on the roster, I’d probably voice my opinion the same exact way. If Drew McIntyre went on Twitter and said, ‘It’s awesome to have Logan Paul in WWE.”

We will have to wait and see how Logan Paul will fare against The Tribal Chief at Crown Jewel. Fans aren’t necessarily looking forward to the match either by the looks of it.
