Paul on what WWE US Title means to him
“I wasn’t like a diehard WWE fan, I was a casual fan. I’ve always had so much respect for this sport, I was always thought it was so cool, I had my favorite wrestlers growing up but I wasn’t watching RAW & SmackDown every day like some people are doing now. But they asked me what does this belt mean, what is it exactly & even to me, when I was an outsider I don’t think I really understood what the belts meant & now that I’m in the industry & I’m learning from my peers around me & I have such respect for the art of wrestling because it’s by far the hardest thing I’ve ever done, it’s much harder than boxing.
“Wrestling is much harder cause it’s a 360 degree art, there are so many things involved in this world that make it extremely difficult so people ask me, ‘what’s so special about the belt’, to me it’s a symbol of accomplishment & trust in the craft in the human. The WWE doesn’t just give this belt to someone, it is them intrusting you with their publicly traded company worth help 4 billion at the moment like it’s a big deal they stamp you & are willing to say you’re significant enough & have done enough disruption in our company for us to put one of our titles on you.” (H/T: Wrestle Ops)
