Kevin Nash Livid Over WWE’s $5 Million Payment to Logan Paul for Part-Time Role

WWE legend Kevin Nash is not pleased with the amount WWE is allegedly paying Logan Paul for his part-time wrestling commitment.

Logan Paul has risen as one of the most entertaining figures in the WWE, showcasing electrifying matches over the past few years, where he even secured the US Title.

Despite receiving accolades from esteemed wrestlers like Roman Reigns and Hulk Hogan, Nash holds a differing opinion.

On his podcast ‘Kliq This‘, Nash referenced an interview where Hogan used the wrestling term “shoot,” a concept that seemed to perplex Paul during their conversation.

A “shoot” signifies an unplanned or unscripted event in wrestling, something that seemed to confuse Logan Paul when Hogan mentioned it.

Nash pointed this out after viewing a clip from the podcast, criticizing Paul for not being “one of the boys.”

Nash rhetorically questioned, “Where would he learn that sh*t at? Where’s he going up and down the road talking about our jargon? In the building? You don’t become one of the boys just because you’re around them.”

The former WWE and WCW champion continued his critique, asserting that Paul is earning substantial money without being a full-time wrestler.

“From what I heard, he’s making like $5M bucks for a f*cking limited schedule while those other guys are on the road doing house shows. F*ck you. That’s from the boys. F*ck you,” he expressed.

“I don’t care how many followers you have. Even if you had 24 million people following you, I would be like, ‘Dude, you are f**king Jesus.’ You’ve got a bunch of f*cking idiots.”

Despite Nash’s disapproval, Logan Paul is reportedly making efforts to commit more to WWE. He has claimed to have asked Triple H to increase his schedule in 2025, participate in live events, and take on the role of a company “workhorse.”

As time progresses, it remains to be seen how Nash’s outlook could shift, particularly with WWE expected to embrace more edgy content upon its transition to Netflix.
