Logan Paul returned to his home state of Ohio and kicked off this week’s Raw. As expected, he dumped on the Cincinnati crowd and even jibed at the locals in relation to four suspects burglarizing Bengals QB Joe Burrow‘s house in December 2024. Shortly after that, CM Punk interrupted him but eventually bled.

Paul called Punk a failure and wondered why the latter disliked him. After pondering over it for a second, the Chicagoan said he didn’t know Logan personally enough to have a problem with him. Giving his honest assessment of Paul, Punk said he’s worth a dime a dozen and just a loudmouth who does incredibly stupid things to get a reaction.

In return, The Maverick reviewed Punk’s return to WWE, saying that the former AEW star couldn’t handle the spotlight and ended up tearing his triceps. After detouring in the opening minutes, things finally got about the Elimination Chamber. Punk, while talking about Cody Rhodes potentially selling out to The Rock, said Rhodes knows what he actually is—the Satan. And that’s exactly what Logan will find out inside the chamber.

After being embarrassed by The Second City Saint on the mic, which was inevitable, Paul took a cheap shot by slapping the 47-year-old right on the money. As a result, the latter’s tongue was bleeding. The recipient, this time Punk, asserted that the IMPAULSIVE host could run while he can because this Saturday inside the Elimination Chamber, Paul will know why the fans keep chanting his name.

It’s worth noting that The Maverick unceremoniously ended Punk’s WrestleMania dreams at the Royal Rumble. The Best in the World would be keen on getting his lick back on the man whom he might’ve just undervalued in the first place that cost him dearly.

Is Aj Styles also on Logan Paul’s radar en route to WrestleMania 41?

The night wasn’t over for Logan Paul after he made CM Punk bleed. Later on, he ran into AJ Styles, who was being interviewed by Cathy Kelley. The social media influencer barged in and broke it to AJ about the recent Lisfranc injury he sustained.

Paul thought Styles would be forced to hang up his boots for good. The former US Champion then brought up eliminating Styles from this year’s Royal Rumble match and how tantalizing it would’ve been for the veteran superstar.

The Phenomenal One admitted that it was embarrassing for him, but he asserted that Paul wouldn’t be able to repeat those exploits. The former WWE Champion is currently feuding with Bron Breakker. However, who knows if Styles ends up facing Paul at WrestleMania 41?
