No one has the right to say who you can or can not like.....but we also have to right to call people weirdos for acting like they know people they've never met in their real lives.

I personally don't like Seth Rollins as a character.....I've never said anything about the guy who plays the man outside of a joke about his wrestling school.

I don't even know his real name.
And I also agree with this. I just think the argument of “oh people are allowed to like what they like” is a cop out when you’re hating on someone’s professional skills because you don’t like them as a person.

If this is addressing me, i simply dont think hes that impressive n protected by smoke and mirrors. I see better workers weekly in multiple different promotions. So for me the juice isnt worth the squeeze is all.

Logan is a piece of shit, flat out. Can I see them wanting to resign him, sure. He is a natural athlete who is decent at the stuff in the ring for really only doing it what in the past year or two. He also still has a following that WWE craves (kids). I wouldn't be upset if they resigned but I also wouldn't give a shit if he was done.

I mean I rather have people have reasons to hate Logan Paul other than “well he’s kind of a dick in real life”.
He's not just a dick, he's a borderline criminal fraudster, my dude. A conman who's making his money off mooks like you just because they "entertain" you.

You wanna enjoy him, go ahead, but don't tell anyone else they can't have just complaints regarding his personal life and professional life.

And the excuse to this cannot be that wrestling is full of fraudsters and criminals because that's not the excuse one might think it is, if anything, it'd be a more damning indictment of the state of pro wrestling.

I mean I just watch the product lol. I don’t watch for him specifically. Hell, I don’t even watch his YouTube channel or listen to his podcast.

While Logan Paul's WWE contract may be up after WrestleMania, he expects that he'll be sticking around.

In an interview with Ariel Helwani that was published on Friday, Paul confirmed that his current WWE contract expires on April 1. But when asked if there's any chance this is going to be the end for him in WWE, Paul said he thinks it's unlikely.

"I feel like it's unlikely," Paul said. "I'm a good employee."

Paul said the subject of a new deal with WWE has been brought up, but he doesn't have one yet. Paul said he'd "of course" like to continue with WWE.

Helwani asked Paul if he likes going year-to-year or if he'd like to sign a longer WWE contract.

"So this was a topic my manager and I were talking about. My life moves so fast and I don't know what my stock will be in a year," Paul responded. "And so it seems a little irresponsible to sign anything longer than year-long contracts, right? I don't know, what's going to happen in a year? Last year, at this time, I had no idea I was going to be a full-time -- or even like almost full-time -- wrestler as like a staple of my career. And now I am. I mean, let's be honest bro, they're going to f*cking renew my contract. I mean, like come on. It'd be silly not to."

Paul said he also wants to renew the deal: "I do. I think it's very good for me."

Paul has wrestled four matches since joining WWE. He made his in-ring debut at WrestleMania 38 last year.

Paul told Helwani he really likes being part of WWE and is pretty proud of what he's accomplished in his rookie year in terms of making moments. "I feel like I am in a unique position where I can create memories that last a lifetime for viewers. And that's significant. That feels cool," Paul said. "And I get to do it again this weekend."

Seth Rollins vs. Paul is taking place on night one of WrestleMania 39 this Saturday (April 1). The match is happening on Paul's 28th birthday.

Paul told Helwani that he'll have new entrance music debuting at WrestleMania.

Helwani's full interview with Paul is available to watch below:

I’ll give dude credit. He’s pretty good for someone with such limited experience.

And he is a natural heel. As Cornette would say “He’s got a punchable face “
