Roman Reigns punished Logan Paul on Saturday night, while defending the undisputed WWE Universal Championship title at the WWE Crown Jewel 2022 PPV in Saudi Arabia's Riyadh. Youtuber-turned-WWE superstar Paul displayed acrobatic moves during the much-loved main event on Saturday but couldn’t capitalize on the advantages he received. Reigns reasserted his dominance as the ‘Head of the Table’ by recovering from Paul’s surprise moves.

Reigns came into the match filled with confidence while underestimating his opponent. As Reigns looked to show Paul who was in control, the social media superstar did not give up and took down the champion a few times. However, Paul was seen showboating instead of dealing Reigns with more damage and also failed to keep the reigning champion down for the count.

Jake Paul comes out to save Logan Paul and knocks out The Usos
Logan put Reigns through the table, which brought The Usos out, followed by the surprise entrance of Jake Paul. Logan’s younger brother, Jake, is a Youtuber-turned-professional boxer, who recently picked a unanimous win over MMA legend Anderson Silva inside the boxing ring. Jake knocked out both the Usos and boasted Logan’s confidence, who, in turn, pulled off a massive splash from the top rope.

Solo Sikoa was the next superstar to appear, but was stopped during his ring walk before he could face Jake Paul. Logan then took out both The Usos with a dive and was nailed with Superman Punch, followed by a spear from Reigns. Logan lost on count out in what was his third official match in WWE.
