Logan Paul has opened up about his admiration for Vince McMahon, revealing what the former WWE Chairman’s vision taught him about the entertainment business.
Speaking on Stephanie McMahon’s What’s Your Story? podcast, Paul reflected on his unique place in WWE history as the last superstar personally signed by Vince McMahon before the latter’s departure from the company.
That’s the brilliance of Vince McMahon and we’ve seen that over the years,” Paul said. “You have this ability to adapt. Even if you aren’t entirely sure what’s going on, you rely on people who are experts in a craft. And the WWE and Vince trusted me. I was the last person Vince ever signed, which I thought was really cool.
Paul credited the experience with shaping his own outlook on business and entertainment.
You know what I learned from that, and your dad just in general? It’s all about the show. It’s all about the product. He built something that he would have died for. Like, actually. It was all about entertaining people. I have so much respect for that,” Paul said.
