Jose Zamora Comments On Logan Paul Using A Mic’d Up Gimmick During Recent Bout, Says He’s In The Process Of ‘Getting A Trademark’

Jose Zamora discusses Logan Paul using a mic’d up gimmick he has been using on the independent scene.

In a recent match Logan Paul had on WWE Monday Night RAW, he would wear a small microphone that picked up everything he said while in the ring, which is something that Puerto Rican independent wrestler Jose Zamora has been utilizing for quite some time.

While speaking in a new video posted to social media on January 23rd, Jose would respond to Paul’s video, noting that while he’s in the process of trademarking the gimmick, he does not want to insult Logan for utilizing his gimmick.

“So Logan Paul did the mic’d up wrestling gimmick on WWE TV, which is something that I’ve been doing for the past year and a half on the independent scene. I do it in every single match and I’m even in the process of getting a trademark. Very randomly, I just want to show a side by side comparison of the captions. I want to show this picture of his videographer liking my videos and then commenting this on Logan’s mic’d up post, and I want to show the comment that a wrestler made to the videographer, which he ended up liking. On top of that, I’d like to mention that the last video that I made was me announcing that I’m going to be out for five months with a shoulder injury that will require surgery to fix, and listen, straight up, right? I think the easy way out in all of this would be to stand here, look at the camera and just complain and insult Logan, and obviously I’m making this video because some people are commenting under his post that it’s an incredibly unique and like sick idea. But the truth is I don’t want to insult Logan. That is not the type of person that I am. That is not how I want to garner mainstream success. That’s the easy way out. That’s what everybody does. Because at the end of the day, a microphone doesn’t define who I am. This defines who I am. ‘Yo soy de San Juan, Puerto Rico. Yo soy Latino.’ So what does that mean? It means that it doesn’t matter if it’s a hurricane or an earthquake or an island-wide power outage and now, a famous celebrity multimillionaire. Being from Puerto Rico means that at heart, I am a fighter. So life has thrown adversity at me, but it is my job to keep fighting, to keep moving forward and to do it with a smile on my face. So this is what’s going to happen. I’m going to get my surgery next week, Thursday, January 29th. I’m going to be out for five months, and once I come back, I will come back with the goal of becoming the biggest star in professional wrestling, because I want to be able to say that the biggest star in professional wrestling, that is my goal. That is my purpose, and I am incredibly confident in both my wrestling abilities and my creative capabilities to do so. So to the people that have loved and watched and supported my videos, I love you so much. This is only the beginning because I am The Spotlight. I am the first mic’d up wrestler in the world. But more importantly, I am Jose Zamora.”
