Logan Paul has already established himself as one of the WWE’s top Superstars in the short time he has been in the company. His matches against Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns and others have impressed many. Paul also had a major botched spot at the Money In The Bank Premium Live Event and it appears Paul finally addressed it.
The Maverick competed in the Money In The Bank ladder match and once again proved why he belongs in WWE. This includes some dangerous spots, including a splash onto Damian Priest. Despite his best efforts, Logan Paul wasn’t able to win the match.
Logan Paul and Ricochet also created a great moment at the Royal Rumble with a Spanish fly onto a stack of tables, but the ‘viral moment’ turned out to be a major botch as they narrowly avoided danger.
While speaking on his IMPAULSIVE podcast, Logan Paul addressed the botched spot at the Money In The Bank Premium Live Event. Paul confirmed that he is not injured and that he tried to do a Spanish fly for the spot.
“You saw, there was a botched move (in the men’s Money in the Bank Ladder match). There was a botched move with a dangerous landing. I walked away this time relatively unscathed.”
“I got some scrapes and bruises but no major tweaks or pulls but, Ricochet and I were supposed to do what’s called a Spanish Fly off the top rope so one of our legs is on the rope, one of our legs is on the ladder and we were supposed to hit it at the same time and when he hit that rope, it was before me so he moved it so I slipped down all the way to the bottom.”
“Keep in mind, I’m a noob. I don’t really know what I’m doing out there so when stuff goes wrong, I don’t really know how to improv. So in my head I’m like, how is this guy — this is f******. We f***** this up. How is this guy gonna do this? Is he even gonna do this?”
“Our legs are all twisted up like this. I’m looking at him, I’m like, oh, this m********* is still trying to send this s****. I’m not even ready. His feet aren’t even planted. Off the second rope, just hawks a backflip.”
“I’m like, alright! Went crashing through the tables, scraped my shoulder, I hit my head on the thing. I’m fine, no concussions or anything but, it’s just a wild sport man. I don’t know what I’m doing.”
I’m gonna be honest, he blew the f******match for me. That’s why we got into it backstage. I got into a little tussle with him. I don’t know bro, I felt like he was a little unprofessional.”
WWE also made a last-minute change to Logan Paul’s storyline due to the botched spot. It remains to be seen how WWE will book Logan Paul and Ricochet’s feud, as their feud has been slowly building up ever since the Royal Rumble match back in January of this year
