Dominik Mysterio questions Logan Paul’s commitment to WWE after extended hiatus: "Logan still has a lot to learn"

WWE superstar Dominik Mysterio has candidly shared his thoughts on Logan Paul’s recent absence from the wrestling scene and his dedication to the sport. Since Paul’s loss of the WWE United States Championship to fan favorite LA Knight at SummerSlam, the internet personality-turned-wrestler has been noticeably absent from WWE programming. This extended hiatus has left fans and fellow wrestlers wondering when, or if, Paul will make a comeback.
Appearing on The Bootleg Kev Podcast alongside WWE colleague Liv Morgan, Dominik Mysterio didn’t hold back in expressing his views on Logan Paul’s WWE journey. When the host asked about Paul’s performance and impact as a wrestler, Liv Morgan was the first to chime in, acknowledging his talent. “I feel like he’s talented,” she remarked, offering praise for Paul’s in-ring skills. Dominik, however, offered a more complex take on Paul’s involvement with WWE and his perceived level of commitment.
Dominik, who shared the ring with Logan Paul during the YouTuber’s first WrestleMania appearance, added personal insight based on his experience. “Yeah, I mean, I wrestled the guy. I was his first ‘Mania,” he said, giving fans a reminder of his history with Paul. While Dominik acknowledged Paul’s potential, he was quick to point out that Logan still has a lot to learn to become a true WWE star. “Yeah, I think he still has a lot to learn, and I think that he has to be able to practice and develop more stuff. More power to him,” Dominik said.

However, Dominik’s remarks quickly turned critical as he questioned Paul’s commitment to WWE. He highlighted the difference between full-time wrestlers who are constantly on the road and celebrities who only make occasional appearances. “I said it when I was on his podcast, but we’re constantly on the road every week, and he lost the title how long ago? We haven’t seen him since,” Dominik noted, laughing. “Shoutout Logan, but you know….”
This subtle jab at Paul’s absence touches on a larger issue within WWE, where some full-time wrestlers have voiced concerns about part-time celebrities receiving high-profile matches and championships without putting in the same work. For Dominik, the frequent travel and consistent grind are essential to building credibility and earning respect within the WWE universe.
Dominik’s comments have sparked conversations among fans about what it takes to succeed in WWE and whether Paul’s sporadic appearances are enough. With Paul’s absence extending since his SummerSlam defeat, fans are left speculating about his future in WWE. Some question if his limited presence might undermine his impact, while others believe his star power alone keeps him relevant despite the time away from the ring.

Whether Logan Paul returns to WWE as a committed, full-time wrestler or chooses a more flexible role, one thing is clear: Dominik Mysterio’s words have raised questions about dedication and respect in WWE. As fans eagerly wait to see what comes next, the spotlight remains on Logan Paul to prove whether he can match the relentless commitment of WWE’s full-time stars.
