On February 16, 2026, Andrade, known as “El Idolo,” took to social media to criticize Logan Paul for allegedly copying wrestling moves. This interaction followed Andrade’s recent match against Hangman Page at the AEW Grand Slam event in Australia, where Andrade used a reverse Spanish Fly maneuver, which he suggested Logan Paul has now adopted.

The Viral Reverse Spanish Fly Clip and Social Media Exchange

Although Andrade lost to Hangman Page, he shared a video of his reverse Spanish Fly during the match with the caption, “New move for Logan Paul!” This post was clearly intended as a jab at Paul’s in-ring style, which Andrade feels lacks originality. The spat continued when Andrade replied to a comment praising Logan Paul’s abilities outside the wrestling ring, bluntly acknowledging Paul’s status as a “good YouTuber.”

Defending the Move’s Origins Against Stolen Move Claims

When challenged by a fan who accused Andrade of stealing the reverse Spanish Fly from wrestler Nathan Frazer, Andrade responded firmly. He stated that both he and Rey Fenix performed the move first, although he acknowledged that neither of them invented it. This highlights ongoing debates around originality and move ownership in professional wrestling circles.

Context on Logan Paul’s Wrestling Style and Its Reception

While Andrade accuses Logan Paul of copying moves, it is Hangman Page’s style that Paul is more frequently linked to, especially for the Buckshot Lariat, one of Page’s signature moves that Paul has introduced into WWE. Page’s victory over Andrade at the AEW Grand Slam Australia granted him a shot at the AEW World Championship, set to take place against MJF at the upcoming AEW Revolution event.

Potential Implications for Wrestling Fans and Industry Dynamics

This ongoing Logan Paul move controversy illustrates the tensions between traditional professional wrestlers and celebrity competitors entering the sport. Andrade’s pointed social media responses reveal the sensitivity surrounding move originality and respect within wrestling’s community. As Logan Paul continues to carve out his WWE career, these disputes may influence fan perceptions and the acceptance of crossover stars.
