Logan Paul has been no stranger to controversy throughout his career, often making headlines for his inappropriate remarks. Most recently, during Raw’s Netflix debut, Paul sparked backlash for his outspoken behavior. He was spotted misidentifying Dragon Lee as Rey Mysterio in what many perceived as a racially insensitive comment.

In a video posted on his YouTube channel, Paul was seen interacting with several talents backstage, including Dragon Lee. However, he mockingly referred to Lee as Rey Mysterio, which came across as highly disrespectful to the rising star. While The Maverick appeared unfazed, his comment sparked widespread criticism on social media.

Notably, the former United States Champion stayed in character throughout the video, making it clear that the comment was a deliberate attempt to generate heat ahead of his next match in WWE. Ironically, Paul has a history of disrespecting Mysterio in the company, suggesting this was his way of mocking Lee with such remarks. This could potentially hint at a future program between the two.

Moreover, The Social Media Megastar has expressed interest in facing Bad Bunny later this year. With his stock rising within the company, there’s a strong chance he could secure the match. It will be interesting to see how things unfold for the 29-year-old in the Stamford-based promotion moving forward.
