At the upcoming premium live event, WWE SummerSlam, Logan Paul will be defending his United States Championship. Bursting onto the WWE scene in 2022, he has made a significant impact since his arrival. Within his first year, he faced top stars like Rey Mysterio, Dominik Mysterio, The Miz, Roman Reigns, and Seth Rollins.
With WWE recognizing Logan Paul’s potential, it was only a matter of time before he captured a singles championship. At WWE Crown Jewel, he defeated Rey Mysterio to win his first WWE singles title, the United States Championship. Paul’s victory came by the use of brass knuckles.
However, despite holding the title for over 250 days, making him the longest-reigning champion among the current roster, Logan Paul’s reign has faced criticism. Fans have expressed dissatisfaction with the limited number of title defenses. To date, Paul has only defended the championship twice during his tenure.
Paul’s first defense was against Kevin Owens at the Royal Rumble in January, followed by a triple threat match against Kevin Owens and Randy Orton at WrestleMania 40. Despite fans’ criticism, recent reports suggest that WWE is pleased with his reign.

He was recently seen showcasing the championship alongside former President of the United States, Donald Trump. Logan Paul will defend his United States Championship against LA Knight at WWE SummerSlam next week in his home state of Cleveland, Ohio. Stay tuned for updates.
