ESPN recently named former United States Champion Logan Paul one of the top five most influential people in professional wrestling. The top stars on the list were Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns. Recently, The Maverick shared his thoughts on potentially surpassing The Original Tribal Chief.
While speaking to Mr. BEAST and KSI on the latest episode of the IMPAULSIVE podcast, Logan Paul mentioned that Roman Reigns carries a certain aura with him and that is the reason why he’s one of the top professional wrestlers in the world.
“Now that I am a WWE Superstar, top five wrestler according to ESPN. It’s whatever… Next year, end of next year [I will top the list]. I do [I want to be number one]. The problem right now is though, the number one and number two are so f***ing good. Cody [Rhodes] and Roman [Reigns], yeah. They are just so good dude. They are two guys I look at and I go, ‘I’m actually not better than them.’ I’m going to say I am because I’m a heel. That aura [makes them the best]. He does [Roman Reigns does act in movies]. You know what’s funny about Roman though? Like in person… Cuz his real name is Joe.
“Well, that’s kind of what I’m going to say, it’s not like, when you see him in person, it depends if he’s Joe or he’s Roman Reigns. Have you ever heard of that story of Marylin Monroe turning on her Aura? So, apparantly Marylin Monroe could walk around as just Marylin and no one would look twice at this woman. But then she would turn on her Marylin Monroe Aura and she became this worldwide sensational beauty. So, she was Norma and she became Marylin Monroe. She could flip a switch and it’s like a contagious energy that just attracts people to look at what they are seeing and…”
Logan Paul says that he could be the top wrestler only if Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes retire
The Maverick also mentioned that he could take over the number one spot once Rhodes and Reigns retire.
“That’s exactly it. And Roman… Joe can turn that on and become Roman. And it’s really fascinating. And it’s cool because, he could be like a regular guy or he could be the most badass wrestler that has ever lived. So I need them to retire before I can become number one. Or I need to get some Aura myself,” Logan Paul said.
Do you think Logan Paul has the potential to become the top wrestler in the world?
