CLEVELAND, OHIO: YouTuber Logan Paul has respect for Rey Mysterio, the current WWE United States Champion and Hall of Famer. Nevertheless, when they square off at the WWE Crown Jewel Premium Live Event on November 4, 2023, "The Maverick" will do all in his power to overthrow the seasoned celebrity.
Since making his in-ring debut at WrestleMania 38, where he and The Miz emerged victorious in a tag match against Rey Mysterio and his son Dominik, Paul has continued to play an active role within the WWE.
