Logan Paul Signs WWE Contract Extension After WrestleMania Match vs. Seth Rollins
Logan Paul isn't done with WWE by a long shot.
The social media star announced a new multiyear contract with the promotion Monday.
"I feel incredibly blessed to have found something that I'm good at, at 28 years old," Paul said, per Mike Coppinger of ESPN. "And the fact that the organization believes I'm good enough to continue hopefully building this WWE legacy is mind-blowing. And I'm incredibly grateful and incredibly blessed. And as long as I can keep putting on good shows, man, I'm gonna keep doing this sport."
No terms of the agreement were made available, though Coppinger's report said Paul committed to more appearances with the company. He has wrestled five times since making his WWE debut at WrestleMania 38.
Largely written off as stunt casting for mainstream buzz, Paul has instead surprised WWE viewers by being a natural in the ring. None of his matches have gotten worse than 3.5 stars on Dave Meltzer's rating system, and all three of his singles matches have been 4 stars or better.
"Logan has just been a game-changer. I mean, he's probably the most natural guy I have ever seen," Triple H told Coppinger. "It's almost like he was made for this business. ... Just being natural as far as talking and being on camera ... he's so good at that. And then his athleticism is just next level. ... He's exactly the kind of guy that I look for as a WWE superstar. Whether he was an influencer or not, he'd be the kind of guy I'd look for as a superstar."
Paul is coming off a well-regarded match against Seth Rollins at WrestleMania 39. The new deal will allow him to be used more regularly as a "main character" on the show, according to Triple H.
