On the latest edition of the IMPAULSIVE podcast, Paul broke his silence about the loss at the PLE. The star wasn't happy sitting without his United States Championship.
"At the end of the day, it's always going to be my belt. It's my belt. I see it on him, but everyone knows that US Title is mine. So you can have it for now, for the time being, but I'm coming back for a rematch because I don't know if y'all saw... My foot was on the rope; it was on the rope on number three. One, two, and my foot just bounced off the rope. In wrestling terms, that means it doesn't count," said Paul. [2:00 onwards]
