WWE Superstar Logan Paul returned to SmackDown TV this week to watch the final round of the United States Championship tournament between Santos Escobar and Kevin Owens.
The Prizefighter and the former LWO member put on an excellent show while The Maverick sat ringside, joining Corey Graves and Kevin Patrick on the commentary desk.
Ultimately, Owens defeated Escobar with a Stunner and became the number one contender to face Paul at the 2024 Royal Rumble for the US title. After the contest, the YouTube sensation took to the microphone and started taking shots at KO.
The 28-year-old star quipped that Owens beating him for the United States Championship would be like the Vancouver Canucks winning the Stanley Cup. However, Kevin Owens was not interested in Paul's trash talk and immediately punched the latter in the face, knocking the champion down.
Later, in a backstage segment, The Maverick was seen applying an icepack to his face and met WWE SmackDown Superstars Austin Theory and Grayson Waller. Interestingly, Waller, Theory, and Logan Paul have been victims of The Prizefighter's KO punch.
Forget tag teams, the wrestling world wants this obnoxious trio to become the ultimate heel faction. As of now, the three notorious heels have one shared enemy: Kevin Owens.
With that being said, the WWE Universe had hilarious reactions and possible faction names for the trio of Logan Paul, Austin Theory, and Grayson Waller.
Check out a few reactions below:
Some fans noted that the United States Champion joining forces with The Aussie star and Theory could be the formation of a new D-Generation X stable.
Fans also want Dominik Mysterio to be a part of a faction alongside the three SmackDown stars.
A few fans shared that the obnoxious heel trio of Waller, Theory, and The Maverick is much needed as they could be a huge draw financially.
The wrestling world has hilarious stable names for the three men, such as "Unlikeable Pricks," and "Douche R Us."
