He said, 'You look older.' And I said, 'Wow, you really are a heel.' Following his match against AJ Styles at the show, Cena walked past Logan Paul and praised him for being a top heel. And then later in the day, after my match, he was walking by—before he became the GOAT statistically as well as just being the GOAT—he pointed at me and he said, 'Now that's how a bad guy works.' And I was like, 'Damn,' said Logan Paul. Logan Paul's Backstage Fight with John Cena, Finding God w/ George Janko, Jake Paul's Next Fight 453 Logan Paul put up a spectacular performance in his match against AJ Styles at WrestleMania 41 Sunday. Following a highly intense showdown, it was the former WWE United States Champion who secured the pinfall over Styles to etch a huge win to his resume.
