WWE Crown Jewel 2022 Predictions: 3 Reasons Why Logan Paul Should Win against Roman Reigns

The brand-new challenger for Roman Reigns’ Undisputed WWE Universal championship titles is an unlikely one.  Social media megastar and WWE rookie, Logan Paul. WWE have officially confirmed the Roman Reigns vs Logan Paul match for Crown Jewel on November 5 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

It all started when Roman was invited as a guest on Logan’s IMPAULSIVE podcast, and Logan went on to trash Roman behind his back. This invoked a harsh response from the Tribal Chief on twitter and after some back and forth that saw Paul Heyman and Triple H get involved, he was invited on SmackDown.

He proceeded to call out Reigns on the Blue brand but got interrupted by his Bloodline instead and he ended up punching their Sami Zayn in the face.

It was then officially announced that Paul will face Roman for the Undisputed titles at the Saudi Event.

This led to the infamous press conference where Reigns shoved Logan after some harsh words between the two.

The WWE Universe may not be all convinced about this match up, saying there is a list of superstars who are more deserving than Logan Paul. And it may very well be true, but there is an argument to be made where this is the perfect match, even arguing that Paul should emerge as the winner.

Here are 3 reasons why Logan Paul should Win against Roman Reigns:

1. New, Fresh Champion

Roman has been the champion (both WWE and Universal) for more than 2 years. He hasn’t even been pinned for more than that. Although this streak is unparalleled, everything is has a shelf life and needs to be renewed before going stale. From a hated Hero, to a beloved villain, he has done it all and beaten them all.

The WWE Universe has seen him beat all top and middle order talent and for a special show like Crown Jewel, he should face someone he hasn’t faced before. Logan Paul as an opponent provides the perfect option for this. Him beating the champ will let the WWE Universe have a breath of fresh air and provide the Saudis a great new twist on their special show. The shock value alone will catapult WWE’s ratings and get it viral everywhere. Paul can be a transitional champion, allowing Roman to regain the titles soon enough.

2. Social Media craze of Logan Paul

Logan is a social media juggernaut with a combined 33.6 million followers across all social media platforms and total 7.45 billion views on his YouTube videos. When he wins the titles, one can easily expect a major chunk of his followers and viewers to become a part of the WWE Universe.

The win would blow up social media across the globe, making WWE trend on top and gain an unprecedented number of followers. Paul had big time fight experience against boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr. and has gained this opportunity against Roman too, only because of his social media celebrity status. WWE’s bet on him will bear maximum fruit only if he wins.

3. New WWE Mega star 

Logan’s status in WWE right now can be said to be a part time one. He appears once in a while for ppv matches. Although there are other names like him that do the same, namely Brock Lesnar, John Cena and The Rock, they are nowhere to be seen on the horizon.

With him as the champion, he can easily take their place and become a new celeb champ who takes WWE across mainstream media. With Roman’s Hollywood aspirations not being a secret, they need a star replacement for the future. He is the champion WWE needs right now.
