Logan Paul has shut down speculation that he was flirting with WWE Women’s Champion Tiffany Stratton, clarifying the situation on his Impaulsive podcast.
Speaking with guest Michael Cole, Paul explained that the rumors originated from a lighthearted comment by WWE producer Michael Hayes, which was then misinterpreted by her boyfriend, WWE star Ludwig Kaiser.

Paul, who is married to model Nina Agdal, emphasized that his conversation with Stratton was strictly professional, as he had been offering her advice on improving her in-ring moves, including the moonsault and frog splash. However, Hayes jokingly suggested Paul was flirting, leading Kaiser to believe Paul was making advances toward Stratton.
The misunderstanding escalated backstage, where Kaiser allegedly confronted Paul with a chair.
“This is the dumbest narrative. I don’t even want to feed into it,” Paul stated.
“I’m not here to cause drama. I don’t want any problems. I’m here to win.”
As one of WWE’s most skilled self-promoters, Paul has built a reputation for finding ways to stay in the spotlight. Some may view this latest situation as another example of his ability to insert himself into conversations surrounding WWE’s rising stars, including Stratton, whose popularity has surged in recent months.
Paul is set to compete in the Men’s Elimination Chamber match alongside John Cena, CM Punk, Drew McIntyre, Damian Priest, and Seth Rollins. The winner will earn a shot at Cody Rhodes’ Undisputed WWE Championship at WrestleMania 41.
