Logan Paul is on a roll. After suffering a string of defeats to the likes of Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins, Paul rebounded this past August with a singles victory over Ricochet at WWE SummerSlam 2023. Paul parlayed that win into a WWE United States Championship match against then-titleholder Rey Mysterio at WWE Crown Jewel 2023. He would walk out of Saudi Arabia with the gold. Since then, Paul has dominated as champion, accumulating successful defenses against the likes of Kevin Owens and Randy Orton. Throughout this time, Paul has been exclusive to WWE SmackDown, competing in matches sanctioned by the blue brand.

Following Paul to Mondays could be Randy Orton. Paul and Orton had a triple threat feud alongside Kevin Owens in the lead up to WWE WrestleMania 40, culminating in a match that saw Paul pin Owens.
