WWE Superstar Logan Paul enjoyed a successful reign as the United States Champion before dropping the title at SummerSlam 2024. Recently, Stephen Amell, known for his roles in "Arrow" and "Heels," praised The Maverick.
The 29-year-old YouTube sensation defeated the legendary Rey Mysterio at last year's Crown Jewel PLE to become the new US titleholder. Paul successfully defended the championship against Kevin Owens and Randy Orton. However, it was LA Knight who dethroned The Maverick at The Biggest Party of the Summer.
Even Stephen Amell, a lifelong professional wrestling fan himself, has joined many veterans, critics, and fans in expressing admiration for the impressive in-ring skills of the 29-year-old WWE star.
During an appearance on Chris Van Vliet's INSIGHT, the 43-year-old actor claimed that Logan Paul's achievements are extraordinary.

Wrestling legend says WWE could use Roman Reigns to turn Logan Paul into a babyface
Fans are aware that The Maverick has been an on-screen heel persona for his entire pro wrestling career so far. However, the legendary Hulk Hogan recently suggested that a major shift in Logan Paul's character can happen if he aligns with Roman Reigns.
On an episode of the IMPAULSIVE podcast, the WWE Hall of Famer noted that effective villains often make compelling heroes. Hulk Hogan suggested that Logan Paul could be portrayed as a positive character by assisting Roman Reigns in overcoming the new Bloodline.
"Just a quick thought off the top of my head, when Roman comes back The Bloodline shoves and beats him like a dog and he [Logan] hits the ring to save Roman. It would get him over bam, instantly. It'll be Hulk Hogan babyface personified," said The Hulkster.
