This year’s Money in the Bank premium live event was electrifying and so was the crowd present in the O2 arena. The event kicked off with Men’s Money in the Bank ladder match. The jam-packed crowd of London saw Damian Priest grab the briefcase and become the victor of the match.
The match and its participants received appreciation from everyone. Speaking of which, Triple H recently appreciated Logan Paul and his performance at the men’s MITB ladder match. Despite fans showing hostility towards ‘The Maverick’, HHH expressed his admiration for the YouTube sensation.

WWE held a press conference after the MITB live event show in London. All the victors of the event sat down for an interview in front of a group of reporters. In addition, ‘HHH’ was also present there to exchange a few words with the media.
During a segment of the conference, ‘Hunter’ started heaping praise on Paul. He said, “Men’s Money in the Bank ladder match…Logan Paul, showing again why I cannot believe he does what he does and is as good as he is. He has no right to be as good as he is this early doing this.”
“My hat is off to him. He is fearless and gutless and when you’re looking at a guy like that on the ‘Holy crap’ moment, hanging with Ricochet on a ‘holy crap’ level, like you don’t even really need to say anything more than that,” he added.
Despite putting in one hell of a performance at the men’s MITB ladder match, Paul could not capture the briefcase. And it looked like the WWE Universe was glad that didn’t end up winning the ladder match.

After the men’s MITB match was over and Priest became victorious, fans went online to show their relief over Paul not winning the briefcase. Throughout the match, the O2 arena crowd booed the YouTube star whenever he seemed to gain momentum in the match.
The London crowd was pretty hard on Paul on Saturday night event. All the criticism and booing from the fans may or may not have stemmed from him not having to fight for a spot at the MITB match. Like six other participants, he didn’t have to go through a qualifying match to land a spot in the ladder match.
