Rey Mysterio's initial response to being called out by Logan Paul

Logan Paul took everyone by surprise when he called out the WWE Hall of Famer after his boxing bout. Speaking to the MMA Hour, the United States Champion responded to the YouTube celebrity.

Rey Mysterio stated that Paul can easily find him on any Friday night show. He further said that he could not wait to find out what the Maverick ultimately had to say.

"Yeah he [Logan Paul] did call me out, like okay, I am not hard to find. You can find me every Friday night on Smackdown. So, I can not wait to find out what he has to say," Mysterio said.

It will be interesting to see who walks out of the premium live event in Riyadh as the champion. It may be noted that Logan Paul is yet to win a title in WWE.
