Teddy Long praises Logan Paul
Teddy Long, a former general manager of SmackDown and WWE legend, complimented Logan Paul and gave him credit for taking the pro wrestling business seriously. Speaking on The Wrestling Time Machine on Sportskeeda Wrestling, Long asserted that The Maverick's widespread appeal made him a potential draw.
He said, "That's because he wants it. He takes his job seriously. And the other things too. Logan Paul going to Saudi Arabia, you know what I mean. Look what you got. These people actually know him for his entertainment career, not as a wrestler. So now they are getting two for one. So he could be a huge draw there just by himself."
He added, "But to go with him and Rey, Rey has got a history, so that's gonna be huge, man. And working with Rey is gonna be so great for him because Rey will be able to talk to him and keep him on the right page. They are gonna have a hell of a match, man."
