John Cena Says Logan Paul is Underrated – John Cena is gearing up for his clash with Logan Paul at WWE Clash in Paris on August 31, and the 17-time world champion had nothing but respect for his opponent during a recent appearance at Fan Expo Chicago. When asked for his thoughts on Paul, Cena surprised many by dismissing the notion that Paul is “overrated,” instead calling him “underrated” and even predicting championship success in his future.
“I disagree, I think he’s underrated. I think he gets a bad rap. He’s not an outsider. He belongs in WWE,” Cena said. “I think his best days are still ahead of him, he’s got championships in his future.”
Cena admitted Paul might not be the most popular star among WWE fans, but he stressed that Paul has proven himself in the ring and earned his spot. He also emphasized that he is not underestimating him in the slightest.
“I can tell you I’m not looking past Logan Paul, and I’m not believing any of the hype that he’s an outsider who should be taken lightly. I’m training hard,” Cena explained. “So do I think he can beat me up? Yes. Will he have to earn every inch? Absolutely.”
Cena also touched on how his SummerSlam Street Fight against Cody Rhodes “reignited a fire” in him, motivating him to push harder as he heads into the Paris showdown.
With Paul continuing to build credibility in WWE and Cena acknowledging him as a legitimate threat, their August 31 encounter has quickly become one of the most highly anticipated matches of the year.
