Logan Paul is set to have his ninth match of his WWE career this Saturday and continues his excellent run in professional wrestling.
Having claimed gold by beating Rey Mysterio at Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia, Paul defends the United Championship for the first time against Kevin Owens at the Royal Rumble in St Petersburg, Florida.
The Maverick only made his debut in 2022 at WrestleMania and is already one of the top superstars in the company after immediately taking to the wrestling business.

According to The Athletic, quoting Triple H, WWE superstars on Raw and Smackdown typically have a base salary of $250,000.
