Nick Aldis has nothing but praise for Logan Paul.
The pair have butted heads in recent weeks, en route to the United States Champion’s match against Kevin Owens and Randy Orton at WrestleMania 40.
Nick Aldis spoke on the Gabby AF podcast in the build up to WrestleMania. They discussed Logan Paul, who Aldis called “a phenomenon”. He also noted that Paul has surpassed Bad Bunny as the best celebrity wrestler, while crediting Shane Helms for helping agent his matches.
“He’s a phenomenon, because we’ve had a lot of celebrities, we’ve had a lot of outsiders, but no one’s ever delivered like Logan Paul, period. That’s just the long and short of it. Bad Bunny has been incredible too, but for Logan to have embraced this industry and just dive head first into it and really put in a lot of time. And shout out to Shane Helms, for really being his main coach, and QB-ing a lot of his stuff.
Nick Aldis Wants New Talent To Make The Most Of The Rock And Logan Paul’s Appearances
Nick Aldis continued. He said that he wants new WWE talent, like himself, to make the most of the new viewers coming in to see The Rock and Logan Paul.
The former TNA World Champion noted that now is the perfect time to make an impression, both on the fans and the top talent in the WWE.
“To your main point, those of us who are relatively new to the WWE Universe. Every week, we are just trying to maximize our minutes on TV to build our audience and get familiarized with our fans. I hope the younger guys in particular understand the opportunity that exists in front of them in this moment. With The Rock and Logan Paul in particular, and others.”
“But those two come to mind especially and people who a re bringing new eyeballs every week. So, if you’re someone who is just looking to absolutely maximize your opportunity, the opportunity to rub up against anyone like that, and make an impression on then. This is money in the bank that is going to start acquiring interest next year, and the year after that. The retention of those fans. They become your fans. Somewhere down the road, someone that is taking advantage of the big tide coming in, with The Rock and people like Logan – one day it will be their turn. One day it will be their turn to bring this audience with them and allow someone else to capture their imagination.
