Logan Paul’s unexpected success in professional wrestling, revealed by his reign as the United States Champion, surprised many fans. Recently, Kevin Nash voiced some strong criticism of Paul, which led to Paul responding by labeling Nash as bitter and jealous. In light of this exchange, there has been a push for WWE to create a storyline involving both men.
Kevin Nash publicly criticized Logan Paul, saying that Paul doesn’t know much about wrestling terms. Nash pointed out that Paul admitted on a podcast that he didn’t know what “shoot” meant.
Nash believes Paul isn’t really part of the wrestling world because he doesn’t travel or learn about the business. Nash’s main issue is that celebrities like Paul get paid a lot more than full-time wrestlers, despite their limited time in the ring.
In response, Logan Paul told Nash to “f*** off” and accused him of being bitter. Paul also claimed he was a better wrestler than Nash ever was, escalating the conflict between them.
While speaking on his 83 Weeks podcast, Eric Bischoff talked about Kevin Nash and Logan Paul’s recent spat. Bischoff stated WWE should set up a feud between Kevin Nash and Logan Paul on SmackDown after their recent bee. He thinks Nash, who might not want to wrestle a match, could still be part of an interesting segment or story on the show. Bischoff notes that while the timing of the feud might seem a bit suspicious, it could just be a coincidence.
“I don’t think he has any interest in competing in a match, zero. But you don’t have to work a match; they should do something on SmackDown. Oooo, the timing is a little suspicious, Conrad. Isn’t that great? Nothing, I think it’s coincidental, Conrad. Again, that exchange back and forth the week before they moved to SmackDown.”
Bischoff thinks that a feud between Nash and Paul would be good for both Nash’s personal and podcast businesses, as well as WWE’s show. He’s excited about the idea of seeing them argue on TV, which he thinks would be very entertaining.
He also points out that if Paul and Nash faced off, Nash’s experience and speaking skills would make for a fun and engaging interaction. Bischoff believes that even though Paul is skilled with social media, Nash’s ability to hold his own in a verbal fight would make the feud enjoyable to watch.
“It would be great for business for both Kevin Nash and his personal appearance business and his podcast business. It would be great for interest because I, for one, would love to see Logan Paul, who’s known to talk a little smack with a microphone in his hand, and Kevin Nash with a microphone in his hand, and just see what happens. Oh, that’d be so much fun.
I’ll tell you what—if that opportunity comes up and Logan Paul is face to face with Kevin, Kevin will give him a run for his money. I mean, Logan Paul’s really good; he’s mastered social media and knows how to play this game in his sleep. But you don’t want to underestimate Kevin Nash. Because if you get Kevin Nash fired up and focused, and get into a verbal battle with him, he can take you apart. It’d be fun to watch. It will be fun to watch.”
Kevin Nash had since responded to Logan Paul accusing him of being bitter as well. Nevertheless, we will have to wait and see if WWE will end up booking a feud between Nash and Paul as fans would love to see that happen on WWE television.
