Logan Paul made his mark at WWE Elimination Chamber – after coming back from the ‘dead’.
The influencer turned boxer and wrestling star was part of six-way Chamber match in Perth, Australia, WWE’s final PPV before Wrestlemania 40 in April. Paul, who became United States champion by beating Rey Mysterio at the Royal Rumble, was the final man out of his pod and immediately began brawling with Kevin Owens.
However, it was Bobby Lashley who inflicted the most damage on Paul, who was brutally speared through the side of one of the pods by the All Mighty, leaving both men in a crumpled heap.

The move shocked commentators Michael Cole and Corey Graves, with the latter yelling, “Logan’s dead”. Lashley was up first but was soon the first man to be eliminated. Paul eventually recovered and was ready to use a pair of brass knuckles, which he also used to defeat Mysterio at the Rumble.
Unlike on that occasion, outside objects are completely legal in the Chamber. He didn’t get a chance to use them – at that point – as he was on the receiving end of an RKO from Randy Orton and was promptly eliminated.

That wasn’t the end of Paul’s evening Down Under though. With the match down to Orton and Drew McIntyre, he sneaked back into the Chamber to clobber Orton, allowing McIntyre to win the match and book a Wrestlemania showdown with World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins. Meanwhile, it now looks like Paul and Orton will go head to head at Wrestlemania in Philadelphia on April 6 and 7.
Elsewhere, Aussie Rhea Ripley delighted fans in Perth by defeating Nia Jax to defend her Women’s World Championship. At Wrestlemania, Ripley will put her belt on the line against Beck Lynch, who won the Women’s Chamber match.
