The most thrilling part of the match was when Maverick countered Ricochet on the ropes. Paul executed an excellent “Hurricane DDT” pushing the crowd to jump from their seats in excitement. Logan Paul threw several punches but wasn’t able to make Ricochet back down.

Then a mysterious guy from the outside of the ring handed Logan Paul a brass knuckle. The influencer then punched Ricochet’s mouth with those knuckles to obtain the pinfall.
After achieving victory, Paul even mocked Samantha Irvin who is the fiance of Ricochet. He also asked her to announce him as the winner in front of her would-be husband.
