WWE fans are not shy about voicing their opinions, and sometimes they are harsh. An interesting statistic regarding United States Champion Logan Paul recently came to light, and Wrestling Twitter was not pleased.
Logan Paul was crowned United States Champion after defeating Rey Mysterio in Saudi Arabia at WWE Crown Jewel 2023. A tournament is being held on SmackDown to determine Paul's first challenger. Kevin Owens will face Santos Escobar in the final to secure a shot at The Maverick's gold.
As the YouTube sensation completed 50 days as United States Champion, a Twitter user pointed out that Paul had not defended his gold once in his reign. In response, fans expressed disappointment with his absence from the squared circle. Meanwhile, a few others mentioned how both champions on SmackDown were part-timers.
