As part of a strong match, Logan Paul overcame Ricochet to give WWE a strong start to SummerSlam 2023. Since beating The Miz during The Biggest Party of the Summer the previous year, this was his first victory. Since then, the internet phenomenon has lost to Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, and a few multi-man matches.
Paul displayed his expanding repertoire of moves during this encounter. He began by hitting a running power slam against Braun Strowman before paying homage to Hulk Hogan by performing a powerful bootleg drop.
The Tornado DDT as well as springboard Frog Splash were more standout moves made by him. Although Logan Paul performed admirably during the bout, WWE fans might have found the conclusion to be a little unsatisfying.
While both men were on the ground, a crew member quietly passed him brass knuckles. At SummerSlam 2023, Paul attacked Ricochet with them resulting in a quick victory, forcing the babyface’s fiancée Samantha Irvin to declare him the winner.
Logan departed SummerSlam 2023 immediately after ending his losing run of a year in an effort to make it to Dallas early enough to support Jake Paul during his boxing battle against Nate Diaz. It is unknown when he will make a comeback to WWE and who he will face off against.
Summerslam’s biggest betrayal
The biggest treachery in the history of Jey Uso occurred at SummerSlam 2023’s conclusion. Jimmy, who was his brother, turned on him and let Roman Reigns keep the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship. Fans and it appears The Usos family are still attempting to make light of this shocking revelation.
Tamina Snuka, the WWE superstar, was devastated by this turn of events, especially since she is related to The Usos. Their relationship may be traced back to her father Jimmy “Superfly” Snuka’s marriage. The actor, 45, shared an emoji of a shattered heart along with the word “WHY.”
Watching Jimmy Uso defend himself and Jey’s response to it will be interesting. Although they were anticipating a one-on-one battle at WrestleMania, the two may square off at Payback to continue the Bloodline tale.

Great match. Logan keeps delivering. Some spots can be a little sloppy, it’s like he’s just chucking his body around. But the details are superb

Banger. Glad they protected Ricochet with the knuckles finish. I don't know if this was better than the Roman match in Saudi but it's 1B.

6.8/10 Logan winning was the right decision I wonder if there is gonna be a rematch

It's a good match, rather than to analyse whether it' was a good decision or not …
