Logan Paul and Jake Paul won over WWE fans with their showing in the main event of Crown Jewel.
Ever since Logan Paul made his in-ring debut at WrestleMania 38, he has won over some WWE fans with his athleticism. He topped himself at SummerSlam back in July with a huge performance against The Miz. In his third ever-match on Saturday, Paul had the chance to become the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship at WWE Crown Jewel on Saturday, Nov. 5. All he had to do was beat Roman Reigns, who has had a vice grip on the title since Aug. 30, 2020.
Paul once again dazzled WWE fans watching Crown Jewel, as he showed off his insanely crisp pro wrestling ability, pushing Reigns to the limit. However, after interference from Reigns’ Bloodline, Paul ended up on the losing end, getting hit with a spear by the champion for the pinfall.

Oh, and Jake Paul showed up near the end of the match to even the odds “knocking out” Jimmy Uso and Jey Uso.

Logan Paul shines at WWE Crown Jewel 2022
Paul showed off his move set in previous matches, such as a blockbuster neckbreaker, the three amigos, and his signature frog splash. But this time, he showed off some new pieces to his wrestling arsenal.
At one point, Paul hit Reigns with his own version of the Superman punch. Not only that, but Paul also managed to do a front flip over the top rope to hit a Buckshot Lariat on Reigns, a move closely associated with All Elite Wrestling star “Hangman” Adam Page.
With Reigns on the ropes, Paul set him up on the announce table to hit a frog splash from the top rope, much like he did against Miz at SummerSlam. The one difference is that Paul grabbed a phone from a member of his entourage, and filmed a selfie video of himself pulling off the move in successful fashion.

Paul’s performance in his third ever match caught the attention of fans who reached the conclusion that he is a true superstar in WWE. Not only that, but he received praise from X-Pac.
Logan Paul is a hell of a Pro Wrestler already. His technique is sharp as F. He stays in the moment & he's really good at the detail stuff.

Reigns’ Undisputed WWE Universal Championship reign continues. Now we wait to see who will step up to challenge him to try and take the title off of him. As for Paul, we now await when his next match will be, and who it will be against.
