A top AEW star reacted to a controversial statement by a veteran regarding Logan Paul. The Maverick has been one of the fastest-rising stars in wrestling. In just a few years, he has become a main-event guy for WWE. Similarly, Kyle Fletcher, who was a tag team star in AEW, is now one of the most promising names on the show.

WWE veteran Stevie Richards recently claimed that the former WWE United States Champion is better than stars like Jon Moxley, Will Ospreay, Darby Allin, Swerve Strickland, Kenny Omega, and Young Bucks. This statement didn't sit well with the reigning TNT Champion.

While speaking with TMZ's Inside the Ring, Kyle Fletcher devalued the claim by stating that Stevie wanted to gain reactions from it.

"I think a lot of these things are done with the thought process, ‘Oh, this will get a reaction. Oh, this will get clicks.’ I don't know if he believes that wholeheartedly," he said.

The Protostar said that Paul has achieved a lot in a short time, but is still inferior to the top AEW stars in the wrestling industry.

"No hate on Logan Paul, doing great stuff. Good for you. He's been in the business 5 years, if that. So the level that he's performing at is insane. Do I think he's better than Kenny Omega, Will Ospreay? Not a f*cking chance," he added. [H/T - WrestlePurist on X]

Veteran points out the unique quality of Logan Paul

The Maverick has been one of the top heels in the business right now. No matter what the situation is, the crowd loves to despise him.

While speaking on Busted Open Radio, Bully Ray said that Logan being constantly hated by the crowd is a rarity in today's era.

"Logan Paul is a great go-to heater that doesn’t have to be involved in any one particular storyline. If you insert Logan Paul anywhere with any babyface, he’s going to get heat, and he’s going to be hated. That is very, very rare in professional wrestling these days, a heel that is hated no matter what,” he said.

It remains to be seen if Kyle Fletcher's comment gets a response from Paul.
