Logan Paul Addresses Botched WWE Money In The Bank Spot With Ricochet
Paul breaks down what went wrong where
Jul 5, 2023
Logan Paul has spoken about what went wrong during the mistimed spot with Ricochet in this past weekend's Money in the Bank Ladder Match.
Towards the end of the bout, Paul and Ricochet attempted a Spanish Fly from the top rope through two tables on the outside of the ring. While they managed to salvage the spot, things looked uncertain for a few seconds and their landing was far from smooth.
Explaining what exactly went wrong on his IMPAULSIVE podcast, Logan said:
"So one of our legs is on the rope, one of our legs is on the ladder, and we are supposed to hit it at the same time. And when he hit that rope, it was before me. So he moved it, so I slipped down all the way to the bottom. Keep in mind, I'm a newb, I don't really know what I'm doing out there. So when stuff goes wrong, I don't really know how to improv. So in my head, I'm like, this is f****d. We f****d this up".
"I'm looking at him, I’m like, oh, this motherf****r is still trying to send this s**t. I'm not even ready, his feet aren't even planted off the second rope, just hucks a backflip...went crashing through the tables, scraped my shoulder, I hit my head on the thing. I'm fine, no concussions or anything, it's just a wild sport".
WWE were reportedly attempting to create a 'viral moment' with the spot. When it didn't come off as planned, they shot a backstage confrontation between the two stars (which aired on Raw two days later).
Logan Paul and Ricochet are set for a face-to-face confrontation on next week's episode of Raw.
