Logan Paul beat Rey Mysterio, but he hasn't really been a main eventer for a long time. Do you think Logan should start beating real main eventers, like Orton, CM Punk, Rollins, etc?
He doesn't wrestle every week, but he appears on TV quite a bit. He really could be a good World Heavyweight Champion if he got the chance. I don't think Triple H wants him to beat the top guys yet, as he has never been a full time wrestler. Shane McMahon had a ceiling for this reason.

I think eventually he wins a world title. He’s been wrestling about once a month or so. If Brock can come back after a decade only wrestling 4 times a year and hog the world title then I think Logan can have a title run. I can see Trick vs Logan as a future mania main event doing big numbers and getting mainstream attention

Generally, there's not a lot of reason to do it, but I could see it happening for storyline reasons, sure, like him beating Orton if someone interfered, either on his behalf or to spite Orton, or whoever.

Maybe Logan wins Money in the Bank next.

I think beating Randy one on one should be his next highlight.

The only thing Logan should beat is… it.

No he should not beat main eventers or any wrestler for that matter.

Yes, feed the main event roster to a part timer with no self control who could be embroiled in messy lawsuits due to their scummy, scammy behaviour at any point in time. That'll go great.
I know people love how he can do athletic stuff and perform a match he's been walked through step by step by some of the best performers in wrestling history, but the guy is a liability. It's not a matter of if chickens will come hope to roost for him, but when, and the WWE will be lucky if their name isn't all over the news reports when it does.

I keep thinking Logan Paul is one of those things that's going to blow up in WWE's face at some point so I'd advise against it.

nope, keep the clown to rare one off matches.
wwe has enough scandals as it is, having a walking potential scandal as a focal point of the shows is just asking for something to blow up in their face.
there is also the potential of him randomly deciding that wrestling is no longer gaining him extra viewers/money or he's bored of it and bouncing off to something new.

I don't know anything about this guy except the he is a wrestler. From that perspective, I say sure. He puts on great matches, does decent character work. Normally I'm opposed to celebrities being booked better than wrestlers, but Logan Paul at this point is a wrestler. It can be argued he's one of the better wrestlers on the roster.

I don't think so because you monopolize the draw of the part time guy and the world title match if you put them all on him other then a 1 off match

I think OP meant having the wanker beat Main Event level talent one on one. To which I reply no f***ing way.

Has there been any report of wrestlers opposing his involvement or keeping him in check? Has he behaved in a locker room where everyone gets along?

Has there been any report of wrestlers opposing his involvement or keeping him in check? Has he behaved in a locker room where everyone gets along? Not that I've heard. He seems to be fairly well liked, although you see a video of him crying when Cody wins the title at Mania or hearing about him calling Cameron Grimes immediately after he was released and you can absolutely understand why he's well liked. He is incredibly passionate about wrestling That being said, I think the role they're using him in now is perfect. If he goes broke tomorrow and suddenly wants to go on the road fulltime, then we could talk about cementing him as a proper main event player I wouldn't change anything right now. He's one of the most entertaining characters in the company, he's legit gone from me wanting nothing to do with him to being a huge fan of him WWE work.
