More News: WWE SmackDown Star Gets Major Contract Update
Logan Paul and The Vision
When Paul first aligned with The Vision on "Monday Night Raw," many assumed that it would be a temporary alliance. Paul linked up with the faction ahead of the men's WarGames match at "WWE Survivor Series 2025." Paul and his team emerged victorious, and he has since stuck around with The Vision.
Paul appears to have renewed his rivalry with WWE Hall of Famer Rey Mysterio. During the Dec. 1 episode of "WWE Raw," Paul vowed to end Mysterio's career. "The Maverick" received a slap to the face for his comments, and security intervened. Paul defeated Mysterio at "Crown Jewel 2023" to capture the WWE United States Championship. It was Paul's first singles title win in WWE.
Paul is said to have a set number of dates per year in his WWE contract. It's reportedly fewer dates than other members of the roster, which is expected given Paul's other ventures. Still, many within the industry believe it could be a matter of time before Paul is given a run with a world title.
