Since he became the United States Champion at the WWE Crown Jewel last year, Logan Paul has faced quite a few opponents to keep hold of his belt. The most notable of his feuds was with Kevin Owens whom The Maverick faced at the 2024 Royal Rumble PLE. While many are eyeing the belt, who knew Paul’s former rival turned business partner and friend, KSI might be next in the line. Is the popular YouTube sensation soon to make his WWE debut?

The Maverick‘s friend was present as a guest on the latest episode of Impaulsive where they were discussing the aftermath of the latest episode of SmackDown in which KSI was present as a guest. In case you missed it, the YouTuber and internet celebrity was at the receiving end of an RKO by the Viper, Randy Orton. When they were discussing that topic, Paul’s co-host Mike Majlak stated that KSI could be a good fit for the US title and Paul’s reaction to it felt like Majlak wasn’t supposed to reveal anything about his belt’s successor.

Commending KSI on his selling skills, Majlak said, “Taking a kick was weird cause it’s a lot but like you crushed that like it literally you couldn’t, I think you could be US champion.” Upon hearing this, Paul was a bit angry and he stared at his co-host. KSI tried to change the topic by saying, “I would like to see myself as the Shane McMahon of WWE.”

On the 03/08 episode of SmackDown, Randy Orton is already angry as he lost at the Elimination Chamber and anyone who is crossing his path suffers a miserable faith. On the last episode, Logan Paul announced that his energy drink company PRIME now partners with WWE. It was during this time that KSI made his way to the ring and ate an RKO.

While Paul might not be ready to give his belt to KSI, he does have an offer for him that the boxer cannot refuse.

KSI’s Championship title in WWE

Logan Paul stated that he does have a spot for KSI which he thinks will be perfect for him. He stated, “If you ever get bored, UK Champion.” While WWE does not have an active division in the United Kingdom, a title similar to that of the US Champion and the Intercontinental Champion might be KSI’s thing.

And while Paul believes that the internet celebrity might be able to pull it off with some training, he insisted that wrestling is not his cup of tea. KSI repeated once again, “Like I said, I’ll be Shane McMahon.”  Considering that PRIME is now partners with WWE, could we get to see a match between the two at the 2024 SummerSlam?
