Logan Paul got laid out by WWE superstars The Miz and Ciampa just days before his huge SummerSlam match.
The controversial YouTuber – who recently signed a huge multi-match contract with the wrestling giant – will make his singles debut this weekend in Nashville against The Miz, and the A-Lister got the upper hand on Raw.
Monday night’s episode kicked off in chaotic fashion as the show came on air to Logan and Miz brawling in the ring, neither man willing to wait until Saturday.
Later in the show, the social media star hosted a live edition of his Impaulsive show with his opponent as the special guest, and the two talked plenty of trash before their upcoming bout.
Miz’s wife Maryse also got involved, and in the end they got the upper hand as the former WWE Champion – and his associate Ciampa – laid out Logan.
Monday was an historic show for WWE, as it marked the first ever episode of Raw since Vince McMahon’s retirement, with Triple H now in charge of all creative duties.
Fans will have high hopes for the bout, particularly after Logan impressed in his debut at WrestleMania 38 earlier this year when he and Miz defeated the team of Rey and Dominik Mysterio.
The 27-year-old fighter recently put pen to paper on a major deal with WWE which includes appearances in several premium live events, as well as featuring on their weekly TV shows as needed.
Logan has admitted he’s ‘excited’ for the future and hopes WWE can be a ‘launch pad’ to improve his own name value, if he puts in the work.
He said: ‘I’m excited for this journey and I am well aware of how powerful of a launch pad it can be for whatever I want to do in life. Besides [Impaulsive], my visibility online is not a lot. I’m not uploading on my main channel ever.
‘I do this show every week and I do this and that, but WWE is a good opportunity for me to leverage one of the biggest brands in the world for my own, should I show up. Should I work hard.’
WWE Raw airs Monday nights at 1am on BT Sport 1. WWE SummerSlam airs Saturday (July 30) at 1am on the WWE Network.
