In the WWE, a new wrestler’s position is solidified the moment he beats an older established one. That’s exactly what happened when Brock Lesnar beat Dwayne Johnson at SummerSlam in 2002. He won his first WWE Undisputed Championship and also became the youngest WWE Champion at 25. This announced his arrival to the world and automatically placed him in the big leagues of the WWE.

The same should be done for Logan Paul as well. Paul was granted an immense opportunity within just 5 months of getting signed by the WWE. He was given a title match against Roman Reigns at Crown Jewel in November 2022. But WWE didn’t feel like it was the right time for Paul to win a championship back then. Also, Reigns is their current top star, and they wanted to continue his historic unbeaten title run. But Rey Mysterio has already accomplished a lot in his 20+ year WWE career. And it would only be apt for Mysterio to put over the young WWE star at Crown Jewel so he can be the future of the WWE.

Winning a championship in the WWE catapults the wrestler to the top of the wrestling food chain. The best example is that of Dominik Mysterio. Although the crowd hates him to the core, they still have to look at him with respect as he holds a championship belt which is deeply coveted in the WWE. In the past, Logan Paul has expressed his desire to win WWE championships. Thus, Crown Jewel seems to be the perfect stage for him to win his first championship. Just like Lesnar, Paul winning a championship will propel him to new heights and make him a megastar.

Paul is undoubtedly the biggest social media magnet in the WWE. Everything he does reaches viral status instantly. The best example was his boxing match against Dillon Danis, which was the talk of the town for weeks. WWE would like to cash in on this same viral wave that Paul has so skillfully learned to manipulate over the last few years. Hence, making Paul the United States Champion would only bring more viral fame to the brand.

Logan Paul winning the championship would mean a future title match against Kevin Owens

Even though Logan Paul has yet to finish his feud with Mysterio, he has already set his sights on his next target. Last week on SmackDown, after brutally attacking Rey Mysterio backstage, Paul came face to face with the first person who ever thrashed him in the WWE. We are talking about Kevin Owens who gave Paul a stunner during his first-ever appearance at WrestleMania 37.

But going back to last week’s SmackDown, as two stars had a stare-down, it was clear that after Mysterio, Paul was gonna be feuding with Owens. And what better way to make this rivalry more exciting than to get the United States Championship involved? Paul becoming the champion at Crown Jewel will add more impetus to the rivalry. Owens would definitely want to win a championship now that he rides solo on SmackDown.
