Prior to the SummerSlam Premium Live Event on July 31, 2023, Logan Paul made his final appearance on RAW.
He would later fight Ricochet, and a major focus of the matchup was over Samantha Irvin, Ricochet's fiance, revealing Paul's identity—something she finally did after "The Maverick" prevailed.

During the latest installment of WWE RAW, Logan Paul asserted his claim to the United States Championship by summoning Samantha Irvin into the ring.
This action incited the anger of Ricochet, who retaliated against his previous adversary, ultimately eliminating Dominik Mysterio in the process.

As pledged, Logan Paul appeared on Friday Night SmackDown in San Antonio, Texas, to address Rey Mysterio.
He clarified that his issue is not directly with Mysterio but rather with Mysterio's current status as the United States Champion.
After sharing his thoughts about Logan Paul, Mysterio accepted the challenge, highlighting the similarities between Paul and his own child – both young and clearly talented, yet in need of a lesson in common sense.
