WWE's Happy Corbin On Logan Paul: Fans Hate Him, But They Tune In Every Single Time
Paul does draw a negative reaction
Oct 2, 2021
Fans might hate Logan Paul, but they tune in to watch him every single time, Happy Corbin believes.
The 26-year-old YouTuber has made semi-regular appearances on WWE TV throughout 2021, first striking up a friendship with Sami Zayn ahead of WrestleMania 37 before an appearance on Miz TV in August which almost turned The Miz babyface, such were the boos for Paul.
Paul then made his presence felt again on WWE TV in early September when he helped Happy Corbin beat down Kevin Owens on SmackDown.
Reflecting on his storyline friendship with Paul, Corbin told Walandi Tsanti that even though fans hate the YouTuber, they always tune in to watch him.
"It was great. We found a common ground that people don't like us. We had a conversation about that and we're both finding success. I found mine in Vegas, he's finding his on YouTube and through the boxing world. He went the distance with Floyd Mayweather, which is something not a lot of people have done. He's someone that I thought could be part of the group and have some fun and irritate some people, but he backs it up. He backs up his mouth, which is more than most people can do. You see the chat, there are people like, 'I hate you, I don't like you.' Not one of those people can back up what they say, not one," Corbin began.
"They are sitting at home with a fake picture emoji, probably in their mom's basement thinking, 'This is my chance to go at Corbin.' In person they'll be like, 'Can I please have your autograph? Can I get a picture?' I want people around that can back up what they say, Logan Paul is one of those guys. He's a polarising figure, say what you will, people are gravitating to what he does. They say, 'I hate that guy,' but they tune in every single time. That's a special quality."
