Logan Paul’s rapid rise to fame in WWE has impressed many veterans of the industry, who have been awestruck by how he’s taken to pro wrestling after making it big as a YouTuber. As a result, it’s safe to say Paul hasn’t been criticized on his selling, but during an episode of his “IMPAULSIVE” podcast, he claimed it’s something he wants to work on — after revealing that WWE CCO Paul Levesque recently asked him to change his appearance.

“He asked me to grow my hair out. It was a very light suggestion that I took way too seriously,” Paul claimed. “He’s like, ‘Would you ever consider growing your hair out? It creates movement.’ I was like, ‘Yeah, I totally understand that.’ You know what I’m going to start focusing on? Selling. There is an art to the sell. I’m not sure much people, even me, place that much focus on it.” (Per: Fightful).

Despite his new focus on selling, Paul has boldly stated in the past that he believes he was born to wrestle. During an interview with “Sports Illustrated,” the former WWE United States Champion looked back at his life and noted how every skillset he’s developed over the years has slowly positioned him to firmly step into the pro wrestling industry, from showmanship to storytelling, to improve and the physicality of the sport.

Eric Bischoff has explained why Danhausen received a mediocre reaction on his WWE debut, something he attributes to the uncertainty surrounding Chris Jericho’s career.

The former AEW star debuted at Elimination Chamber and got some boos from the Chicago audience. Bischoff, on his “83 Weeks” podcast, analyzed the reaction, asserting how fans thought that a big name would emerge from the mystery box that WWE had teased for weeks.

“It’s not so much that their idea was bad, but their timing was. If you would have had that mystery, if you would have played it out the same way, if you would have established a box for two, three, four weeks and created the whole mystery around it at a time when there wasn’t a question mark about where Chris Jericho is going to end up. The timing of it led people to want to believe it was going to be Chris Jericho, myself included,” he said. “I was looking for that really, really big surprise. But we got Danhausen, which is really unfortunate because like you, I see the value and I’ve met him a few times at conventions and spoke with him. He’s a very, very nice young man and I too see an opportunity from a merchandising point of view and also from a programming perspective.”

The Hall of Famer noted that a character like Danhausen will drive merch sales, while also offer fans some light-hearted humor. While Danhausen may not have won over the audience as WWE would’ve hoped for, Bischoff feels WWE will eventually rectify the mistake and make him a success. 

“Danhausen is a good acquisition for WWE because there’s nobody better on planet earth in merchandising a character than WWE. So, it makes sense business-wise. I think the timing, because of the possibility that existed at that time, I think it put a little dent in the character coming out of the shoot, but they’ll make up for it very quickly,” he added.

Bischoff thinks fans will forget Danhausen’s not-so-memorable debut and put him on the path to success.

Bully Ray has proposed a possible scenario in which The Rock returns to WWE during Roman Reigns and The Usos’ feud with CM Punk, and what could potentially happen between Reigns and The Usos.

While analyzing this week’s “Raw” and the fallout of the segment involving The Usos and CM Punk on “Busted Open,” Ray wondered if The Rock could be involved in the feud between Reigns and Punk, referencing how he was angry at Cody Rhodes for just mentioning his family.

“Is Rock involved at this at the end of the day in any way, shape or form as a sign of the ultimate unification of the Samoan family against Punk?” asked Ray.

The Rock hasn’t featured in The Bloodline storyline since WrestleMania 40, and there’s been no indication if he will return to WWE anytime soon. Ray also touched upon another aspect of the segment between The Usos and Punk, particularly when the brothers said that they weren’t confronting Punk on behalf of Reigns, but the Anoa’i family. He was confused why they said that and wonders if it will lead to a feud with Reigns and The Usos in the future.

“That line right there, ‘We are not here for Roman.’ That’s where I scratch my head. Because if I’m Roman, I’m going, ‘What do you mean you weren’t there for me?’ And that, if there was dissension with Roman and the Usos moving forward, that’s where it may lie,” he said. “I can see Jimmy and Jey now saying, ‘We didn’t punch CM Punk in the face for you. We did it for us and Uncle Sika.'”

Punk’s actions have led Ray to want to see Reigns beat the living daylights out of the WWE World Heavyweight Champion at WrestleMania 42, with him even saying he’d like to see “The Original Tribal Chief” punt kick his opponent like Randy Orton.

This past weekend, Ricky Saints failed to win back the NXT Championship against Joe Hendry at Vengeance Day, but the build up to the match is currently making more headlines than the title bout itself.

During the go-home show of “WWE NXT” for Vengeance Day, Saints performed an Absolute Experience concert, where he mocked and insulted Hendry. However, according to a new report from Fightful Select, Saints’ concert has been completely removed from all of WWE’s social media after it was poorly received, with many fans criticizing the quality of the segment online, with a major complaint being that it was a weak replication of The Rock’s legendary concerts. In the past, anything that has been deliberately taken off WWE’s socials usually is linked to controversy or a scandal, but it’s rare for the company to remove content that didn’t connect with the audience. 

Fightful also notes that Saints didn’t pitch the idea to perform a concert, as he’s worked hard over the past year to avoid creative decisions that would lead fans to draw comparisons to The Rock. Additionally, the segment was reportedly met with a “lukewarm” reception backstage, but many who Fightful spoke with in WWE claimed they weren’t concerned about Saints or Hendry and thought they bounced back in their title match at Vengeance Day.

It’s been just over a year since Saints made his WWE debut, though Fightful claims that most in “NXT” expected him to be called-up to the main roster by now. That said, WWE often recruits many “NXT” stars following WrestleMania, which would likely be the next opportunity for Saints to make a splash on “WWE Raw” or “WWE SmackDown.”

WWE legend Kevin Nash has lavished praise on new WWE star Danhausen and is pleased to see a good person like him get an opportunity.

Nash recently discussed Danhausen’s debut on his “Kliq This” podcast and suggested that his rather unusual gimmick early in his career, the Oz, could’ve been a success if it had the WWE production magic sprinkled over it. He stated that Danhausen has surpassed other surprise debuts in WWE like The Gobbledy Gooker, and later expressed happiness at seeing Danhausen receive plaudits because he’s a genuinely nice person.

“Do we suffice to say that Danhausen more than delivered?” asked Nash when he compared Danhausen’s debut with that of The Gobbledy Gooker. “Plus on top of all that, this is one of the sweetest, most genuine human beings in the business. He’s just a good fu***ng guy. So, that alone … there’s so many as**oles that get breaks in this business. It seems like there’s so many great guys that don’t.”

Nash, to highlight Danhausen’s good nature, referenced a recent statement by the now-retired AJ Styles, who said that he wanted to spend time with his family rather than wrestle for a few more years. He praised Styles for that stance and put Danhausen on the same pedestal. Nash also drew parallels between Danhausen’s character and the early Batman TV show.

“And now we got another guy [Danhausen] with that same caliber of human being. And it’s just like, it’s so nice to see him get a break, even though I got some crazy, early 1966 Batman vibes when maybe like, you know, the Joker, the Riddler would come in and have his entourage that would fight the Caped Crusaders, the dynamic duo if we may,” he added.

Since his debut at the Elimination Chamber PLE, Danhausen has appeared on both “WWE Raw” and “WWE SmackDown,” and seems to have gotten over with the WWE fans, going by the audience reaction and his merch sales.
