Speaking on his latest Impaulsive podcast, new WWE United
States champion Logan Paul admitted that he has some of the
blame for the spot with Rey Mysterio when he had to save him
from a nasty injury.
During the match, Mysterio went for a springboard moonsault
and Paul’s quick thinking avoided a major disaster as
Mysterio ended just inches from landing straight on his
head.
Paul noted that watching the match again, he believes that
he was bit far out while Mysterio didn’t jump enough so
there wasn’t much elevation.
“I think I was too far back for the move, and I think he
didn’t clear enough ground for the move. That’s what
happened,” Paul admitted. “We both, I think, made a
mistake.”
Paul said that he had to catch him and there was no way he
wasn’t going to catch him.
“Truthfully, while I like the headlines and I like being
gassed up like this, I was just doing my job. But I’ll take
it. I’ll take the praise,” he continued.
Paul added that he’s seen all the positive headlines and
praises he got for the catch and while he appreciates that,
he also had to assess his performance.
“While I think I did save Rey Mysterio, I think I also
almost killed Rey Mysterio,” Paul said.
