Logan Paul was filled with emotion as he witnessed the intense final moments of WrestleMania 40’s main event on Sunday. The match between Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns for the WWE’s Undisputed Universal championship was a nail-biter, with the outcome uncertain until the very end.
Rhodes became the second undisputed champion since the establishment of the title after avenging his loss against Reigns at WrestleMania 39. Reigns, who had held the title for an incredible 1,316 days, entered the match as the reigning Undisputed Universal champion.
Despite the crowd’s frenzy surrounding the historic and exhilarating performance of the second-generation superstar, he ultimately achieved what his father Dusty Rhodes was unable to do in his career: winning the WWE championship and “finishing the story.”
During WrestleMania’s second day of action, Logan Paul was among the 72,755 people in attendance, according to WWE’s announcement of Sunday’s attendance. As a stream of legendary wrestlers took their turns entering the ring, the current WWE United States Champion couldn’t believe what he was witnessing.
Paul was ecstatic when John Cena burst out of the tunnel and executed an Attitude Adjustment on The Bloodline’s Solo Sikoa, sending him crashing through the announcer’s table. The Rock then emerged to confront Cena, but the atmosphere in Philadelphia reached a new level when the Undertaker suddenly appeared behind The Rock, leaving Paul in awe.
After the Undertaker delivered his signature Choke Slam on The Rock and Rhode’s final pin, Paul reacted by saying, “We want Cody. Damn bro, that got me a little emotional. I’m truly moved for him. Wow. This marks the start of a new era,”Paul tearfully stated as he wiped away his tears.

As Reigns attempted a spear, Rhodes countered with a kick to the head. Despite this, Reigns was not able to recover and Rhodes successfully executed a triple Cross Rhodes, securing his victory over “The Tribal Chief”.
Paul had publicly supported Rhodes on February 3rd, tweeting “We want Cody.”It is not surprising that he was overjoyed by Rhodes’ victory, as well as the unexpected appearances of three major WWE stars, given his previous support.
