Logan Paul revealed that his tag team partner, John Cena, was skeptical he could perform his spectacular lionsault spot at WWE Money in the Bank.
During the event, Paul hit Jey Uso on the announce table outside the ring with a lionsault from the middle rope. Speaking on his Impaulsive podcast, Paul said he got the idea after a similar move at WrestleMania, but Cena doubted he could make the 10-foot jump to the table.
“It’s before the match and I’m telling John Cena, I was like ‘Hey, I’d like to fit this spot in there, right?’ He looks at me and goes ‘You can’t make that jump.’ I go ‘I swear to God, I can,’” Paul recalled. “John’s the best, but in full sincerity, he goes ‘You can’t make that jump.’ I found out no one believed I could make that jump.”
Paul successfully hit the move but admitted the landing was difficult. “It was a really hard landing… I was not sure if I broke both my f—ing shins,” he said.
