“That punch didn’t even land” – WWE Universe reacts to Logan Paul defeating Rey Mysterio to win his first title in WWE at Crown Jewel with help of brass knuckles

After defeating Dillon Danis at the influencer boxing event, Logan Paul met WWE superstar Rey Mysterio in a singles match at Crown Jewel 2023. He started the match with the same cockiness, insulting the legendary luchador. Nonetheless, Mysterio soon got the upper hand due to his quickness.

The WWE Hall of Famer soon gave Logan Paul the taste of his own medicine by playing mind games with him. But The Maverick showed fans how much he has improved in the ring. He performed some vintage moves like the running splash and the over-the-shoulder bear hug to stop the momentum Mysterio had.

In the dying moments of the match, Logan Paul’s entourage tried to hand him the brass knuckle, hiding from the referee’s eyes. But their plan soon failed after Mysterio’s LWO member Santos Escobar came to help the champion. However, the social media megastar managed to pull off the biggest upset.

Logan Paul became the United States Champion by a cheap shot with brass knuckles after Mysterio attempted another 619. This was his first major title win in WWE at Crown Jewel. It left the WWE Universe buzzing all over. While many fans enjoyed the victory, others lambasted Paul for his antics.
