"That's my belt" - WWE star comments on LA Knight's US Title win
The Megastar of WWE has finally won a championship. At SummerSlam on August 3, LA Knight defeated Logan Paul to taste gold for the first time in World Wrestling Entertainment.
WWE Hall of Famer The Undertaker was the guest on the latest episode of the ImPaulsive podcast, where he praised Logan Paul for bringing eyes to the product by taking the United States Championship to every non-WWE event. The Maverick added to The Phenom's words, emphasizing on how he literally took it everywhere.
Logan Paul then broke character to congratulate LA Knight, before saying that the belt is his. He claimed that a lot of people will look at the US Title and believe that it's Logan Paul's belt because that's how long he has had it. The Undertaker stated that The Maverick made the championship relevant, despite only two title defenses between when he won and lost it.
"I tried to take it everywhere," Paul began. "Glued it to my side. I bet if people see that, like in this generation of wrestling fans, people will see it and always be like, 'That's Logan Paul's belt.' Congratulations to LA Knight but, man, I saw him post a picture of him with the belt, my belt, literally I was like, 'Bro that's my belt.' It's just crazy to see it with someone else." [From 16:22 to 16:52]
LA Knight and Logan Paul's feud commenced in the summer of 2023 and was in the cards for that year's SummerSlam, but Triple H and his creative team held it off for this year's edition instead. Needless to say, both athletes put on an impeccable performance.
