WWE SmackDown Superstar Kofi Kingston recently spoke with Steve Fall at NBC Sports Boston on a number of topics such as how he has been very impressed with Logan Paul as Paul has been amazing in the ring and a talent is not supposed to be that good and be able to pick everything up that fast. The New Day member also spoke about how he thinks Roman Reigns will come out on top at WWE Crown Jewel because he wouldn't be the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion for over two years if he wasn't that good.
Kofi Kingston said:
“I’m very impressed with the way that Logan Paul’s been able to naturally be so good, not even good, but amazing in the ring these past couple of matches that he’s had. Like, you’re not supposed to be that good. You’re not supposed to be able to pick it up that fast. From promos all the way to in-ring work, and moves, and attitude, and making things look realistic and believing it. You’re not supposed to be that good. I love the way he’s brought this amazing energy to the WWE, like you can’t take your eyes off him. It’s amazing.”
“Having said that, I gotta go with Roman Reigns. I mean, you’re not the undisputed WWE World Heavyweight Champion for almost two years now without being very, very good. His progression has been phenomenal. Seeing him develop in terms of character all the way from The Shield to what he is now, it’s remarkable and just carrying the industry right now. So yeah, realistically I feel like Roman should kind of wipe the floor with him, but Logan Paul, he’s surprised me the past couple of matches. So I’m gonna watch like everybody else and see what’s what.”
