5. Still Not Caring About Logan

It’s probably safe to say that Logan Paul’s heel act is quickly wearing thin.

Yes, Paul says the right things as an arrogant celebrity, but it’s feeling more and more like a boring repeat to diminishing returns. He’s not around frequently enough to allow fans to really sink their teeth into him as a character, and his routine is incredibly one-dimensional.

Monday, Logan sparred with AJ Styles, who grew tired of waiting for Paul to call him out, so he went to the ring first and called out the Maverick. Paul did his usual shtick of saying he doesn’t fight for free, that he’s rich and handsome, and everyone in the arena is poor (not given those ticket prices!).

Styles called Logan a douchebag (true, but not exactly a basis for a feud) and said he’s talented but doesn’t know how to use that talent. They floated a match at WrestleMania, brawled, and then Paul left AJ lying in the ring.

That’s it. That’s the feud. It’s a total snoozer that is filler at best, an excuse to get Logan (and AJ) on the card in a spotlight rather than a multi-man Intercontinental Championship match. There’s zero interest in this one.
