Who is more important in WWE – heel or babyface? This is a tough question to answer. Some prefer heel, while others prefer babyface. And, it seems like Celebrity Superstar Logan Paul prefers to be a babyface.
As seen on WrestleMania 38, after defeating The Mysterios, The Miz turned on Logan Paul. He executed a Skull Crushing Finale on Paul, before leaving the ring. The YouTube Sensation was shocked by his tag team partner’s actions!

But, when The Miz turned on Paul, he portrayed Paul as babyface and himself as a heel. Apparently, this is something that Paul wanted, i.e., to be a babyface at WWE.
Dave Meltzer from Wrestling Observer Radio claimed that Paul worked it into his WWE deal before agreeing to do WrestleMania 38.
“That was the idea. That was negotiated into the deal so I guess that’s why he was a babyface the first time too. […] This time obviously they expected when he was in Cleveland that he was gonna get cheered and he did the interview like he was gonna get cheered and he did not get cheered.” H/t InsideTheRopes
It’s unknown why he didn’t consider being a heel himself. He probably would have gotten more cheers as a heel than he did as a babyface.

Logan Paul may start working with WWE full time
When The Miz turned on Paul, some believed this marked Paul’s full-time schedule with WWE.
It so happened that the WWE Raw that followed WrestleMania 38 showed The Mysterios getting entangled in a rivalry with Veer Mahaan. Keeping that in mind, it indicates their rivalry with The Miz has come to an end.
So, at this point, The Miz might be booked for singles run with Logan Paul, which will lead to one of them standing tall, while the other crumbles.
But, Logan Paul was absent from WWE Raw. So, it’s all up in the air regarding Paul’s WWE contract.
