Logan Paul knows he’s one of the most polarizing figures in WWE, and he’s fully aware that not every fan is thrilled to see him in the ring. In fact, on the latest episode of his IMPAULSIVE podcast, Paul admitted that he believes he has “go away heat”—the kind of reaction where fans just want him gone.
“I think I have go away heat. So, the only reason why it works is because I’m a great wrestler. There’s a handful of the audience that is genuinely like, ‘Get this guy out of here,’” Paul said.
Go away heat—also known as X-Pac heat—has plagued several top stars over the years, including Roman Reigns, Chris Jericho, and Batista in 2014. But Paul has managed to turn the boos into fuel, proving himself as one of WWE’s biggest attractions since debuting at WrestleMania 38.
Since stepping into the ring, Paul has gone toe-to-toe with Roman Reigns, LA Knight, and Cody Rhodes, even holding the United States Championship for 273 days from November 2023 to August 2024. Love him or hate him, he’s sticking around.
But while Paul remains a fixture in WWE, there’s one place you won’t be seeing him—Egypt. The 29-year-old revealed he’s actually banned from the country and was recently blocked from traveling there.
With Paul continuing to divide WWE fans, do you think he has go away heat—or is he just playing into his role as a top heel? Drop your thoughts below!
