Logan Paul and CM Punk get into a confrontation

Logan Paul makes his way to the ring to loud boos. Paul says he’s from Ohio, but he’s only met with boos. Paul says he’s just like them… except way better. He has a story. He was coming in on his airplane. They were descending, and he saw dreary, grey Cincinnati. Paul wanted to pull a U-turn and go home. Then, he realized he is righteous and perform for the peasants because he’s just that humble. Paul makes a crack about Joe Burrow. The crowd is furious.

The last time he was in a ring on Raw on Netflix, he defeated Rey Mysterio, a Hall of Famer. Paul punched his ticket to the Elimination Chamber this Saturday, where he will defeat three doorknobs and John Cena. Then, he will go on to Main Event WrestleMania, where he’ll face Cody Rhodes and become the face of the company.

CM Punk’s music hits, and Paul is none too pleased. Punk does not look pleased with what Logan Paul has been saying. The crowd is thrilled to see him and chants his name. Paul doesn’t understand why the crowd has a problem with him. Paul then asks CM Punk what his problem is with him. He’s heard what Punk has said online. Paul thinks he knows why.

Punk is jealous that Paul succeeds at everything he does. All Punk has done is fail upwards. The crowd chants for Punk. Punk says he doesn’t have a problem with Paul because he doesn’t know him well enough. This is about the Elimination Chamber. It’s business. Punk says Paul is a dime-a-dozen loudmouth kid who says dumb things for the shock of it. No character and no substance. The people deserve better.

Paul mocks Punk and will tell Punk what is bad business. When Punk came back, it was one of the greatest returns in history. Then, he cracked under pressure and tore his tricep. Punk couldn’t handle the spotlight. That’s why Paul is here. Punk is familiar to the people. It’s “Stone Cold,” it’s John Cena, it’s CM Punk. That name changes. Now that Paul is a full-timer, it’s only a matter of time before they chant his name. The crowd boos.

Another “CM Punk” chant fires up. Punk asks if they should give the crowd more time to chant Paul’s name. Paul said a lot of things wrong, but one thing he’s right about is that the names change. The names Paul mentioned are legends and history makers. Time and time again, under the pressure Paul claims Punk cracks under, Punk makes history.

Paul is barely a flash in the pan and won’t be here long enough for the people to figure out or remember who he is. At the Elimination Chamber, he’ll eliminate Paul as a receipt for eliminating him from the Royal Rumble. Punk will go to WrestleMania and face Cody Rhodes for the title. Punk will leave Las Vegas with the World Title and make history. Paul will be history and forgotten. Punk doesn’t care if Cody Rhodes thinks he needs to sell his soul to beat him. Rhodes will find out what Paul will see on Saturday: Punk is Satan himself. In this business, Paul is a nobody.

Punk and Paul are face-to-face. The crowd chants, “CM Punk.” Paul begins to back up, but then he slaps Punk in the face and retreats. Punk is not happy. Paul cackles as he backs up the ramp. Punk warns Paul to run while his legs still work. On Saturday, it’s not just a ring. He’ll be locked in a cage with CM Punk. Paul will find out why the crowd chants his name. Punk sticks his tongue out and reveals that the slap busted his mouth open.
