6 Ups & 4 Downs From WWE Raw (31 July - Review)

4. The Secret: Have Ricochet Talk Less

Logan Paul is right about one thing: his match against Ricochet at SummerSlam might be the spot-fest highlight of the night.

The two had their final confrontation Monday night, with Paul trying to play the victim from last week’s attack, only for Ricochet to interrupt. Thankfully, they kept his remarks brief, as promos have never been Ricochet’s strong suit. He got in a few decent barbs before Logan did what he does best, be a smarmy d*ck heel.

Paul went a step further in dragging ring announcer – and Ricochet’s fiancée – Samantha Irvin into the middle of it, basically asking the One and Only how he’s going to feel when she calls out his name… as the winner of their match. It was low, but again, it’s LOGAN PAUL being Logan Paul, so it fits. The brawl worked too, with Logan reminding everyone of his knockout punch due to metal pins in his fist.

As a story, this isn’t much, but they did enough to sell the match as something to watch, and it even felt a little personal, which is an improvement.
