WWE legend Booker T feels that Logan Paul getting a world title shot would've aggrieved him if he was in the locker room presently.
Former WWE Champion Drew McIntyre recently stated that he isn't pleased about Paul getting a world title shot. He feels that it should be reserved for those who "worked up the card and put the time in" and thinks that Roman Reigns will "smash" the YouTube star.
On the latest episode of Hall of Fame podcast, Booker T said that he understands why Drew McIntyre is not on board with Logan Paul getting a world title shot. The Hall of Famer said that he would have a similar opinion to McIntyre if he was in the locker room presently.

"You know, if I was on the roster I may feel a little bit different about it. I'm not going to sit here and say, 'Celebrities coming into the business is all great.' I'm speaking from a promoter's standpoint now. I'm thinking from a perspective where, 'I'm running the company, I can't be thinking about what some wrestler is thinking of or how he's feeling,'" said Booker T.

Booker T has backed McIntyre for voicing his opinion about Logan Paul and stated that it's the "proper thing to do" by any WWE star.
"I do understand where Drew McIntyre is coming from, 100%. As a performer on the roster, I'd probably voice my opinion the same exact way. If Drew McIntyre went on Twitter and said, 'It's awesome to have Logan Paul in WWE,' then we'd have a problem." [11:30-12:20]
