Reigns defeated Paul in a five-star match to cap the premium live event in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Paul's tremendous athleticism took centerstage as he executed a host of difficult spots, especially for someone with just two matches under his belt before Saturday.

The fact that he wrestled with torn ligaments for more than 10 minutes makes his match all the more impressive.
Numerous analysts praised his efforts afterward.
Dave Meltzer @davemeltzerWONReigns beat Logan with a spear , Usos, Jake & Sikao all involved. As great as Paul was in his last match, he was far better here. He is someone really special at this.
Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful.com @SeanRossSappLogan Paul KEEPS doing amazing shit in this match. One after the other.
Humble Wrestling @WrestlingHumbleThe thing with Logan Paul is he's not half assing any moves. He actually delivers every wrestling move with perfection.
Paul and Reigns ultimately put on an incredible show. In the end, the Tribal Chief stayed as champion and extended his time with the belt to 797 straight days.
