Andrade El Idolo has reacted to his performance at AEW Grand Slam Australia by sending a direct message to Logan Paul on social media. During his match against "Hangman" Adam Page this past Saturday in Sydney, Andrade executed a spectacular Reverse Spanish Fly from the top rope.

The maneuver was one of the most talked-about spots of the night and quickly began circulating across various social media platforms. Andrade decided to use the viral moment to poke fun at the former WWE United States Champion. Retweeting the official clip of the move from the AEW account, Andrade sent a clear shot at the WWE star.

He wrote, “New move for Logan Paul!”

This comment refers to a long-standing criticism among some wrestling fans and performers that Paul frequently adopts signature moves from established stars like Page and Ricochet for his own high-profile matches.

Despite the technical brilliance shown in the ring, Andrade was unable to secure the victory. Page managed to overcome the offense of the Don Callis Family member, eventually finishing the match with a Buckshot Lariat.

The win was significant for Page, as it officially named him the number one contender for the AEW World Championship. Following the match, Page confronted the champion, MJF, and signed the contract to make their upcoming title fight official.

Andrade has been on a strong run since returning to AEW as a heel under the guidance of Don Callis, but this loss removes him from the immediate title picture. He asked his followers on social media if they enjoyed the "gift" he gave them in Sydney, despite the result. Paul has not yet responded to the jab, as he is currently occupied with his own social media feud against Tom Brady and his upcoming flag football appearance in Saudi Arabia.

As the fallout from Grand Slam Australia continues, AEW is shifting its focus toward the Revolution 2026 pay-per-view. The event is set to take place on March 15, 2026, at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. The headline match will feature MJF defending the AEW World Championship against "Hangman" Adam Page.

Elsewhere on the Revolution card, Kazuchika Okada is expected to defend the AEW International Championship against his Don Callis Family stablemate Konosuke Takeshita. Tensions between the two have reached a breaking point following their interactions at Grand Slam. Additionally, the AEW World Tag Team Champions, FTR, are likely to defend their titles against the team of Adam Copeland and Christian Cage in a match that has been months in the making.
