Kurt Angle thinks Logan Paul has a bright future.
Logan Paul has consistently drawn plenty of praise up to this point in his journey as a WWE superstar, as he has quickly adapted to in-ring competition. Paul defeated Rey Mysterio to win the WWE United States Championship at WWE Crown Jewel, and he later teased making more appearances.
Speaking on True Geordie, Angle was asked to share his thoughts on Logan Paul. He responded by saying that Paul has impressed him. The WWE Hall of Famer shared his belief that Paul could become a world champion if he gets more experience.
“He’s another kid that has really, at first, I was like, ‘He’s a YouTuber, he’s just trying to get the fame.’ But he was producing. He’s winning fights. Then he goes to the WWE, and he shows his athleticism. It’s like, woah, this kid has it. Why did this kid start out with YouTube? Why didn’t this kid be a pro boxer when he was younger or a pro wrestler? This kid has the ability to be those, all those, all the above. Watching him, I’m literally impressed by his skills. I’m really happy for him. He just won the US Title. I think that’s a great accomplishment, for only wrestling your eighth match. I will tell you this. I won the Intercontinental Title wrestling my ninth match. So I know the feeling. But he’s on that level with me and Brock, he really is. I think if he continues on and he has more experience, because he’s not quite experienced enough yet, I think if he gets more experience, he’s gonna be really, really good, and I think he’ll end up being world champion," Angle said.
Angle was then asked ti describe what advice would he give Logan Paul. He encouraged the WWE star not to spread himself too thin. Instead, he encouraged Paul to focus on one or two things and do what it takes to become a world champion.
“Try not to spread yourself too thin. I know he’s got a bunch of shit going on. His PRIME drink and wrestling. I don’t know if he’s still fighting or not. He got the YouTube thing, I don’t know if he’s still doing that. But he seems to be all over the place, and that’s really good, as long as he has a great management team. But just try to focus on one or two things and do the best you can at those one or two things. I think that’s the one thing I would say to Logan. If you love wrestling, focus on it. Make it your first love, and make it first priority. Do what you gotta do to become world champion," Angle said.
