WWE Crown Jewel 2023: 10 Things That Must Happen

This is happening, people.

Rey Mysterio has a natural story brewing with LWO cohort Santos Escobar anyway, and he doesn’t really need the United States Title for that coming feud. Besides, putting one of your midcard belts on a pop culture sensation like Logan Paul is a no-brainer. Think of the eyeballs he’d get on WWE carrying that strap around.

Some hardcore wrestling fans still don't like to admit it, but LP is money and a far bigger global star than pretty much every full-timer in the industry. He brings casual interest, and the seductive thought of brand new fans latching on to WWE's product. Triple H will surely be interested in that goodness.

Also, and this is worth saying, Paul has proved he's damn good in-ring too. Putting the US Title on him isn't akin to WCW awkwardly shoving their World Title on David Arquette - it's logical, and it'd lead to some brilliantly insufferable heel promos on TV after the fact.
