On the April 2, 2021 episode of SmackDown, the American YouTuber Logan Paul entered the WWE. At that time, fans thought of him as just another celebrity, who wanted to make a quick buck through his cameo. However, the YouTuber-turned-wrestler proved everyone wrong with his performances.

In spite of that, Logan Paul is still struggling to get the desired recognition among the WWE Universe. He is still facing the disapproval of several wrestling stars and legends. The same happened once again when WWE legend Kevin Nash disrespected Paul after taking a dig at LA Knight.

Nash called Knight a “rip-off of The Rock”, pointing out his promo on Logan Paul and pretended not to care about the latter.

“Am I the only one that sees, like, an absolute rip-off of The Rock to the point when he cut the promo on f**king Logan Paul or whatever the f**k his name is?”, said Kevin Nash.

Ever since his debut in the WWE Universe, Logan Paul has divided the fanbase into two over him. A part of it praises his performance and the other one thinks of him as another flimsy celebrity-turned-wrestler. And Nash’s words have shown that he may belong to the second half.

Logan Paul may not have gotten the acknowledgment of several WWE superstars and legends but he earned the respect of the toughest wrestling critic which many top stars are still longing for.

With his phenomenal performance against the ‘Visionary’ Seth Rollins at WrestleMania 39, Paul made it clear that he is here to stay. Not only the fans but Jim Cornette who is also known as one of the toughest wrestling critic, praised his athleticism.  

From his first in-ring performance, the Youtuber-turned-wrestler improved a lot. Now, fans and critics don’t hesitate to call him one of the best celebrities to enter the WWE ring.

Logan Paul undoubtedly proved to be a great asset for WWE. Considering getting the approval of fans and critics on one hand and WWE’s multi-event contract on the other, Kevin Nash’s words might not have hurt Paul that much.
