He named superstars such as Gunther and Randy Orton, but what caught everyone’s attention was the name of Brock Lesnar. He said, “You got Seth yeah I mean that that would be one you know one of the first things I would think. You got Seth you’re going to have Gunther.

Randy’s still sitting there.” He further added, “Brock is not completely out of the picture. It’s what Triple H said. I mean there’s some hurdles he’s got ahead of him to get back to 41.”

Since he arrived in WWE, Logan Paul has established himself as one of the company’s top superstars, despite coming from the entertainment world and having a relatively short career within the industry.

Currently, Logan Paul holds the United States Championship, but the sky is the limit for the Maverick. So maybe he might end up establishing himself as the underdog to dethrone the champ?
