Independent wrestler Jose Zamora has publicly challenged Logan Paul's claim to being the first wrestler to use a mic'd up gimmick, presenting evidence that he pioneered the concept on the independent scene.

Zamora, who wrestles as "The Spotlight," responded with receipts showing he has been using the gimmick for the past year and a half.

So Logan Paul did the mic'd up wrestling gimmick on WWE TV, which is something that I've been doing for the past year and a half on the independent scene," Zamora said. "I do it in every single match. And I'm even in the process of getting it trademarked.

The 23-year-old Boston-based wrestler provided screenshots showing Paul's videographer liking his mic'd up videos and commenting on Paul's posts, suggesting awareness of Zamora's work.

Zamora closed his statement by reaffirming his position: "I am the spotlight. I am the first mic'd up wrestler in the world. But more importantly, I am Jose Zamora."

The independent wrestler is currently recovering from shoulder surgery that will keep him out of action for five months. Meanwhile, Paul recently signed a long-term full-time contract with WWE and performs on Monday Night RAW as a member of The Vision faction.
