Hulk Hogan believes Logan Paul will ultimately turn babyface.
There’s no doubt that Logan Paul has impressed since signing with WWE in 2022. A polarizing figure, the star has become one of the top heels in WWE, reigning as United States Champion for months before being defeated by LA Knight at SummerSlam.
Speaking on Impaulsive, WWE Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan praised Paul’s work in the ring, advising the young star not to get hurt as the sky is the limit for his career.
“Watching you my brother, you have an opportunity to be the best big attraction in this business, simply because you got your shit together. I’ve never seen anybody get this as quick as you have. I’ve never seen anybody, since I’ve been a wrestling fan, since I was in the business, I’ve never seen anybody pick up on it as quick as you have. Your stuff looks f*ckimg believable. There’s no holes in your work. So just don’t get hurt.”
Logan Paul Could Be “Hulk Hogan Babyface Personified” According To The WWE Hall Of Famer
Later in the interview, Hogan made the bold claim that despite his divisive persona, Logan Paul will eventually be one of WWE’s top babyfaces, pointing to The Bloodline as an example of a drastic character shift.
“Watching what you’re doing, you have a certain air about you. You’re a really good heel naturally, and what is so cool, you’re going to make one of the best babyfaces ever when they turn you because the more heat you get, the more they hate you, you’re gonna be an awesome babyface.
For instance, Bloodline now, they’re starting to cheer for Roman. Roman comes back, Bloodline pounds the shit out of him, [Paul] hits the ring to save Roman. It would get him over bam, instantly. Instantly babyface. It’d be Hulk Hogan babyface personified.”
Hogan recently found himself in hot water after making certain comments about US Vice President Kamala Harris during a promotional tour for his Real American Beer. After voicing his support for Donald Trump, Hogan was trolled at another recent promotional event.
