Logan Paul Made History On WWE SmackDown

Join us at the Fifth Annual 80s Wrestling Con on Saturday, May 4th, at the Mennen Sports Arena in Morristown, NJ, featuring The Four Horsemen, Jake Roberts, and More! 80sWrestlingCon.com.

Logan Paul continues to prove that he belongs in WWE as his progression in the ring and on the microphone has improved every time that he’s given the task.

WWE tenure

Paul made his first WWE appearance at WrestleMania 37 in 2021 as he was the special guest of Sami Zayn for his match against Kevin Owens before having his first-ever match the following year for a tag bout with The Miz against Rey and Dominik Mysterio.

He signed with WWE and has worked several matches at premium live events. Paul beat Rey Mysterio to win the United States Title at the WWE Crown Jewel 2023 before retaining the title via DQ at the Royal Rumble over Kevin Owens.

On Friday's SmackDown, Paul went over The Miz in a Men's Elimination Chamber qualifier to advance to the Men's Chamber match at next Saturday's PLE, where he will compete against the likes of Randy Orton, AJ Styles, LA Knight, Bobby Lashley, Drew McIntyre, and Owens with the winner getting a shot at Seth Rollins' World Heavyweight Title at WrestleMania.

WWE Stats noted this was Paul's first non-PLE match in his career, also marking his tenth match. He became the first star to compete in 9 PLE matches before working a match on television or at house shows.
