World Wrestling Entertainment recently signed Logan Paul, which sent waves across the wrestling world-- and WWE Superstar Drew McIntyre already made his intentions known that he wanted to lay the smackdown on the YouTube celebrity creator.

Paul signed a contract with WWE last week, and it appears that he will face The Miz at WWE SummerSlam as part of a multi-year agreement that will see him participate frequently.

The Scottish pro-wrestler initially was skeptical about the news but later confirmed that Paul's signing with the company upon seeing the photo of the contract signing with Triple H and Stephanie McMahon.

When Can Fans See McIntyre v. Paul?

In an interview with Nick Hausman of Wrestlinc Inc., Drew McIntyre admitted that he was impressed with Logan Paul's performance in his WrestleMania matches.

McIntyre said: "I don't know what kind of contract it is if he's full-time if he's signed for a series of matches but he did impress me at WrestleMania. He's obviously an incredible athlete, and he's obviously a fan of our product, you don't just come in and do as good a job as he did without knowing our job well enough."

The McIntyre implied his desire to put his hands on the new guy on the roster and explained why.

"He's such an entertainer, he gets it, he's genuinely a bad guy. He's one of the most hated people on planet Earth, I assume that's just him, if it's not, kudos to him that's what sells tickets, people want to see guys like him get beat up."

While McIntyre might want to tangle with Paul at some point, it appears that The Miz will be the first WWE Superstar to get a shot at beating him up after signing a contract. The A-Lister initially teamed with Paul at WWE WrestleMania 38 as they defeated Rey and Dominik Mysterio, but after the bout, the former WWE Champion dropped the celebrity with a Skull Crushing Finale.

While Miz originally claimed the two of them were going to push to become Tag Team Champions, Paul has made it clear that he is coming for Miz and is seemingly out for revenge.

According to ESPN, one of Drew McIntyre's career-high points was when he defeated Brock Lesnar, Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns, Ricochet, King Corbin, and The Miz to win the 2020 men's Royal Rumble match. That cemented his status as one of WWE's top guys today.

Logan Paul Sends a Message to The Miz

The famed YouTuber used social media to announce the event and post pictures of his visit to WWE HQ in Stamford, Connecticut. Following their altercation at WrestleMania, Paul took the opportunity to also speak with The Miz.

Ahead of SummerSlam, YouTube superstar Logan Paul makes his return to WWE official and sends a message to his old A-List tag team partner.

Logan Paul and The Miz teamed up at this year's Wrestlemania against Rey and Dominique Mysterio. But after The Miz defeated The Mysterios, he nailed Paul with a Skull-Crushing Finale at the center of the ring.

Following rumors that they would reunite, Paul confirmed that speculations were wrong as he intends to exact revenge at SummerSlam with the message "Coming 4 U @MIZ", as posted on WWE's website.
