Kevin Owens talks Logan Paul.
Kevin Owens and Logan Paul met for the first time back at the Royal Rumble in a singles match that Paul would win via disqualification after Owens hit the United States Champion with brass knuckles. The two would meet again at WrestleMania 40 in a triple threat match that also involved Randy Orton.
During WrestleMania week, Owens spoke to Evan Mack in an interview and was asked for his thoughts on Paul, noting that while he is not his kind of person as a human being, he takes wrestling seriously and that makes him a lot more tolerable to have in the locker room.
"I've said this before, he's not my kind of person as a human being. He's got different views, goals in life and different ways to go about things, but he does take what we do very seriously and that's important. So it makes it a lot more tolerable for everybody in the locker room to have him there every three months for the big shows because he gives it his all, he works very hard, he wants to make good things, he takes it seriously, so that's good. That said, me and Randy are going to beat the hell out of him on Sunday and it's going to be so great. I can't wait. I'm like looking forward to see what Randy does to him and I'll be like right there, you know? Front row seat first but it's not even front. I'll be like an inch from them you know?"
Logan Paul would go on to retain his United States Championship on WrestleMania Sunday, with IShowSpeed also making an appearance in the match.
Paul offered Speed a gift following the match for his help. You can read more about that here.
