Logan Paul Sets Record as Longest-Reigning WWE US Champion in 10 Years

Logan Paul’s journey into the world of professional wrestling and unexpected success has definitely surprised fans, especially since he is the United States Champion right now. With that said, Paul has now set an incredible milestone as the champion.

The Maverick claimed the United States Championship by defeating Rey Mysterio at Crown Jewel last year. Since then, he has defended his title only twice. His first defense was a disqualification win over Kevin Owens at the Royal Rumble, followed by a victory over both Owens and Randy Orton at WrestleMania 40.

According to WWE Stats, Logan Paul has secured his place in history by surpassing the record for the longest title reign in the past decade. Just days after reaching 250 days as champion, Paul exceeded Austin Theory’s second reign of 257 days.

Among all US Champions, including those from WCW and the NWA, Paul now stands as the 22nd longest-reigning holder of the title. In the coming week, he is expected to surpass Ricky Steamboat and Booker T, both of whom held the title four times.

Logan Paul has even addressed his lack of title defenses in WWE. Regardless, Paul is set to defend his United States Championship against LA Knight at SummerSlam on August 3rd, so we’ll have to see if Knight will be the one to finally dethrone him once and for all.
