Logan Paul's Plans For WWE Money In The Bank REVEALED
Social media star will be in action at next month's PLE in high-profile match.
Social media maverick and WWE superstar Logan Paul returned to Raw Monday night and quickly revealed his summer plans to fans, after badmouthing his own hometown, of course.
Paul announced he is entering the men's Money in the Bank ladder match at the July 1 PLE, saying he made a couple calls to WWE executives to get added to the contest after all six men had previously qualified. That instantly made him the biggest heel, not just with the crowd, but with the rest of the MITB field, who came out one by one (mins Damian Priest) for a promo train that predictably broke down into a brawl.
Logan would take out the bulk of the wrestlers and pose atop a ladder with the briefcase, signaling that he probably has to be considered a favorite to win at next weekend's event. The segment didn't do anyone else any favors, save for LA Knight getting a pretty good dig in at Paul making YouTube videos for "14-year-old girls."
Can @LoganPaul become the next Mr. #MITB?

Since debuting at WrestleMania 38 last year, Paul has exceeded expectations and wowed fans in most of his matches, most notably his loss to Seth Rollins at Mania 39 this spring. Winning Money in the Bank might seem far-fetched at first, but when you consider that three of the past five men's MITB winners produced no successful cash-ins, it's not really that crazy an idea to give the briefcase to a part-timer.
