Corey Graves has gone on record with his support for the upcoming Undisputed WWE Universal Championship match between Roman Reigns and Logan Paul.
Reigns will defend against Paul at Crown Jewel, in a match that has faced criticism from fans.
Many believe that Paul, who joined WWE this year, isn’t as deserving of the title shot as the full-time members of the roster.
Taking on his podcast, After The Bell, Graves defended the booking.
“If you would have asked me… 10 years ago, 11 years ago, when I first started in the company as a developmental wrestler in FCW, I would have said, ‘This is garbage. I hate it. I can’t stand it. This guy hasn’t paid his dues. This guy doesn’t belong.’ I would have given you 75 reasons why it was a bad idea.
“Now sitting where I sit, having experienced this machine in this capacity for as long as I have and sat ringside for countless hours of matches and moments and memories, now I have a completely different point of view and I love it because of the business aspect of it.”
Graves added that fans are in for a good show, no matter the result.
“You’re either gonna tune in because you love Logan Paul and you listen to Impaulsive, and you think he and his brother are the greatest thing since sliced bread, and you’re sure he’s gonna knock off Roman Reigns, or you’re watching so Roman Reigns can smash him for your enjoyment. It makes you feel.”
WWE Crown Jewel 2022 will take place on November 5th in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
