Sgt Slaughter: Logan Paul Will Surpass Every Hero We’ve Had In This Business

Logan Paul is one of the biggest villains in WWE at the moment, but Sgt. Slaughter believes he’ll become one of the top babyfaces in due time.

Speaking to Bill Apter of Sportskeeda, Slaughter weighed in on Logan’s prospects in the ring.

“I don’t think he has too many weaknesses. He still rushes things a little bit. I would love to be there, but I know he has plenty of pros telling him what to do and how to do it. He’s a natural. He’s at home. It takes a long time to make that ring your second home. When you walk in there and become that character, it’s night and day. If he continues, I don’t know how long he’ll continue, but John Cena is leaving. The Rock makes appearances, but there is no real superstar right now. Once he establishes himself as the biggest villain, he’ll be the biggest hero of all time. I think he’ll surpass every hero we’ve ever had in this business. Logan Paul has to be the biggest villain of all time, and when the time is right, someone has to look out because he’s going to turn into the hero and they’re going to blow the roof off,” said Slaughter.

He noted his own face turn when Grand Wizard threw in the towel on Slaughter’s behalf during his bloody battle with Pat Patterson.

Asked if Logan could surpass the likes of Hulk Hogan and Dusty Rhodes as a babyface, Slaughter said, “He’ll be better than all of us. He’s only had about 30 matches, and he’s already main evented. I wish I could go back and be his manager or something. Just show him a couple of hitches he needs to fix. He has everything else. He can do everything they ask him to do, he just doesn’t have the psychology of what it takes to be that villain. You don’t need to call people maggots or spit on people. You can do the Ric Flair fake high-five. Those little things are what he’s missing out on. He’s got the in-ring professionalism. He just needs the psychology of how to make the fans really not like you, not just because you’re telling them you’re a bad guy, but to show them psychology-wise.”

Logan competed against John Cena at WWE Clash in Paris.
