Mike Bailey wants IMPACT Wrestling to dive into the world of social media crossovers.
When the massive YouTuber known as Logan Paul started to appear on WWE programming, plenty of fans around the world of wrestling were skeptical about how the social media star would fit into the pro wrestling landscape. Since then, Paul has shut down the majority of his doubters after having plenty of good in-ring performances.
Mike Bailey, who is a YouTuber himself, recently did an interview with MuscleManMalcolm. In the interview, Bailey said that YouTuber Jujimufu would do good in IMPACT Wrestling.
"Are you aware of Jujimufu? He's very famous for doing the full splits on two chairs holding a barbell over his head. He's one of my favorite YouTubers. Absolutely love his channel, love his content. I think you know, he has an acrobatics background as well as being absolutely jacked. I think he'd do fantastic in IMPACT Wrestling."
Bailey also went on to say that KSI, another popular YouTuber, could pick up the skill of pro wrestling with the same type of work ethic that Logan Paul has shown.
"Again, great shape, trained for a boxing match and I think still still boxes. So I'm sure he would be able to pick it up. But also, it's the whole, you know, Logan Paul thing, where I think if you have the kind of work ethic that it takes to become a top-tier YouTuber, then taking on the challenge of pro wrestling is something you can do something you have the ability to do, and I think pro wrestling is not magic. It's extremely difficult, but it's not magic. I mean, anyone who tries really hard and is really talented can do it."
