Jake Paul & Logan Paul Project Is Reality Show, Not Fight

Jake Paul and Logan Paul will not be stepping into the ring to face one another (yet!) despite a recent tease of a showodown. This week, Logan Paul took to X (formerly Twitter) to share news of a project between the two brothers. The image of the two brothers staring intently left many believing a boxing match was coming.

Despite speculation of a fight, this post on X was the first tease of a reality show, sources told ESPN’s Mike Coppinger. The show will premiere on MAX on March 27, though the premise of the reality show remains unclear.

While the Paul brothers won’t be facing each other this Match, both have seen success in the boxing world. Jake has made a name for himself against high-profile opponents including Tommy Fury, Nate Diaz, and Anderson Silva while Logan has balanced his time between boxing and WWE.

Conor McGregor Says UFC Shut Down Logan Paul Boxing Match Idea

Outside of boxing, Logan Paul will be part of this weekend’s Men’s Royal Rumble match and hopes to punch his ticket to WrestleMania 41. On Raw, Paul confronted Seth Rollins and GUNTHER, teasing a future in the World Heavyweight Championship picture. With WrestleMania 41 set for April 19-20, mere weeks after his showdown with his brother, WWE’s resident Maverick will likely be a very busy individual later this year.

Paul Brothers Discuss WWE, Mike Tyson & Trump in Wide-Ranging Interview

After his record-breaking fight with boxing legend Mike Tyson on Netflix, Jake Paul shared his thoughts on the match, Tyson, and other topics like Donald Trump, possibly joining WWE with his brother Logan, and more, on Logan Paul’s podcast Impaulsive. Here’s a summary of what they discussed in episode 436 of the podcast.

WWE

Jake expressed interest in joining WWE but preferred to be Logan’s manager/sidekick rather than wrestle full-time. Apart from his boxing endeavors, speaking about professional wrestling, Jake said that he would “love to” come to the WWE, but not as a full-time wrestler.

“I would want to be your Paul Heyman,” Jake told Logan. “I wouldn’t want to wrestle as much. Like I could do some sh*t, but I’d want to be your sidekick businessman.”

Logan said that he’d want to go for it, perhaps when Jake becomes the boxing world champion and retires and Logan is still wrestling. “I guess you could do it now, but it’s time-consuming,” Logan added.

However, Logan’s vision for the ultimate goal is for him to become WWE Champion, for Jake to become a boxing champion, and for Jake’s girlfriend, speed skater Jutta Leerdam, to win Olympic gold.

Trump/Political Content

Jake made a political video supporting Trump that reportedly influenced some Democratic voters to switch parties

“I had a bunch of Democratic people tell me they changed to Republican because of that video,” Jake revealed. The two brothers agreed that the positive reception of the video showed that people need to stop being divisive on political topics and have healthy discussions and be united for a better USA.

Jake mentioned trying to get Kamala Harris on his podcast, but she declined, even with offered editorial control

Logan Paul also mentioned that he tried to get Democratic Party nominee for the 2024 presidential election, Kamala Harris, to the Impaulsive podcast after Trump’s appearance. Even after he offered editorial control for the would-be episode, Harris still declined to appear.

“We gave her Final Cut,” the host said. “You can cut what you want from the podcast. We think our viewers would love to hear what you want to say. We’ll have a good conversation. It wasn’t a ‘gotcha’ podcast, and she just wouldn’t come on.”

Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson Fallout

The fight was streamed on Netflix, reaching 60 million households and approximately 250 million viewers. Jake Paul also revealed on the podcast that his goal is to be a world champion boxer. “That’s my goal. I’m literally boxing my whole life, and that creates a ton of dead time.”

Jake claims he didn’t feel Tyson’s punches, including a notable slap during promotion

Before the boxing match though, during the match’s promotions, Mike Tyson had slapped Jake Paul. This became a viral moment, and Jake revealed that he didn’t even feel the slap.

“I’m really not trying to be tough or something, I didn’t feel it [the slap] at all. I didn’t even feel a single thing. Not even like, ‘Oh my god, that hurt.’ It was all beard [on my face] so the skin didn’t even hurt. Didn’t wobble, feel stars, nothing.”

Being Friends with Tyson After the Fight

Logan asked his brother Jake if he thinks he would go back to being friends again after the mayhem that took place in the boxing match. Jake is pretty positive that they will be buddies soon enough.

“For sure,” Jake answered. “We already kind of showed each other a bunch of love in the ring. We just have respect for each other.”

Jake said that Mike was tired after the match and he “persevered for his age.” He added, “He totally tried and fought.”

Reaction to the Negativity

The match has its fair share of negative critics as well, notably about the performance from Mike Tyson and how Jake Paul often picks opponents that are much older than him in age. Jake said he has nothing to say to the negative reception and “hate” he’s receiving online.

“The people who understand the greatness of it, have their own lives, and are happy with themselves, they’re going to just show respect and praise. The haters who are jealous and don’t have anything going on in their sad and miserable lives want to bring this whole event, Mike, and me down.”

As for people who aren’t “hating” per se, but weren’t entertained from the fight, Jake says that such people just wanted him to lose. “That’s the only way they would have thought it was entertaining.” He added that he would receive hate even if he’d knocked out Tyson.   

Allegations that the fight was rigged

“‘Oh, it’s rigged because look at him on the pads, but he didn’t do this in the fight.’ Because someone is f**king punching back, you dumb f**ks. People don’t realise my power and my jab, my speed, ability, and my footwork to get out of the way of those punches. So all of a sudden, he’s throwing at literally air. He can’t land those punches on me.”

Was Mike Tyson Hard to Hit?

Jake said that despite his speed, Mike was still hard to hit and “elusive.” “I was missing [punches]. I don’t know how he gets off to the side like that.”

How Jake Paul Feels About the Tyson Fight

Jake said that he wishes Mike would have put up “a better fight so I could have risen more, done more.”

“He was surviving,” Jake described Mike Tyson in the ring. “That is the only thing I didn’t like.” As for the punches that Mike did land on Jake, the 27-year-old said that he “didn’t feel a thing.”

“It didn’t really hurt, he didn’t really land anything,” he added. Logan said that Jake’s large beard throws people off, because it’s hard to tell where his chin is. And this could have been a factor why Mike’s punches just scraped by Logan’s face.

Jake denied reports of making $90 million or $170 million but confirmed it was his highest payday

Jake denied the reports, stating that he made $90 million or $170 million from the fight. However, he did confirm that there was a lot of money made from the fight.

“I made a lot of money, the most money I’ve made ever,” he said. And what would he do with all that money? Buy a ranch.

Netflix Partnership

Jake Paul revealed that partnering with Netflix was a major factor that led to the fight’s success. “That was like the trifecta,” Jake said. “That made it all perfect is their involvement. It wouldn’t be as big if it was just me and Mike on some pay-per-view platform.”

Jake also revealed that he has a “severe underbite,” and he can’t do anything to fix his teeth because “I’ll just get hit, and they’ll move again.”

What’s next

As for what’s next for Jake, suggested that he would fight his brother Logan. “You’re just a tiny little guy,” Jake mockingly said to his older brother. However, Logan replied that ruining his little brother’s boxing career would be “so bad and mean.”

Backstage WWE Reaction To Streaming Issues During Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson

The November 15 Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson fight created a lot of buzz around the world and both positive and negative reactions poured in from people online.

For WWE fans, the event brought a different kind of concern. A lot of viewers faced streaming issues for the show on Netflix, which made people wonder how things will play out when Raw is broadcasted live from the streaming platform every week starting this January.

Fightful Select spoke to people within WWE immediately after the fight. They were told that the company has been assured that the issues would be kept ‘kept at a minimum’ for their Netflix move.

One higher-up also said that if WWE ever did the type of traffic the unprecedented boxing match did, that would be a good problem to have. Raw currently averages between 1.5 million to 2 million viewers every week on USA Network.

The final streaming numbers for the Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson event have not been released but the Netflix overnight data suggests that over 60 million households tuned in for the fight. While 50 million households tuned in for the co-main event of Katie Taylor vs. Amanda Serrano 2, potentially making it the most-watched professional women’s sporting event in history.

Netflix also apparently showed the new Monday Night Raw logo while promoting the show’s debut during the Friday night event, which you can check out at this link.

Mike Tyson-Jake Paul Fight Postponed Over Boxing/WWE Legend’s Health Issue

Boxing fans will have to wait a bit longer before the much-anticipated fight between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul due to a health issue Tyson is dealing with. 

In a statement, it was confirmed that the fight had been postponed after medical experts monitored Tyson’s recent ulcer flare-up. It has been recommended that Tyson do minimal to light training over the next few weeks and then return to full training with no limitations. 

Tyson and Paul have agreed that the fairest thing is to wait until both men are physically at their best for the fight. Tyson said he was appreciative of fans for their support before giving a word of warning to the ‘Problem Child.’

“Jake Paul, this may have bought you some time, but in the end you will still be knocked out and out of boxing for good. I appreciate everyone’s patience and can’t wait to deliver an unforgettable performance later this year.”

Paul also gave a statement in which he made clear he plans for his victory over the WWE Hall of Famer to be unquestionable. 

“I don’t want to face Iron Mike at anything but his best, but let there be no mistake – when he steps into the ring with me, I will be ready to claim my W with a sensational finish. Paul vs Tyson will be one for the ages.”

Paul Vs. Tyson was supposed to happen on July 20, at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, TX. Wrestling fans will recognize the venue as the host of WWE WrestleMania 38 in 2022. While Tyson promised the fight will happen later this year, no date has been confirmed. 

Jake Paul Fires Back About His Upcoming Fight With Mike Tyson Being Scripted

Jake Paul really wants to knock out Mike Tyson. Paul and ‘The Baddest Man On The Planet’ had a press conference in Arlington, TX on Thursday. Paul shared some interesting quotes regarding his upcoming battle with Tyson and Jake was asked if any of their fight could be scripted. Paul dismisses that notion.

“I hope y’all keep that same energy when I knock this old man the f*ck out. Clearly, they don’t have a high IQ in here, but that’s a federal crime.”

Mike Tyson Channels Scott Steiner

Tyson had his own set of words on his opponent Paul and pulled a classic page out of the book of Scott Steiner during the TNA days. Paul, who is noticably taller than Tyson, came in much bulked up. Tyson decided to make note of Jake’s weight gain.

“I don’t know if he’s in his prime. He’s fat. He should be lean and mean and he’s fat and funky. I saw him with his shirt off though and he’s fat.”

Paul responded to Tyson’s shot, and he didn’t shy away from his new bulkier frame.

“Hey, Buster Douglas was fat. Am I right? I know, but you know Buster Douglas, I’m better. I’m going to end you quicker than he did and you’ll remember that forever.”

The fight is set to take place on July 20 in the AT&T Stadium down in Dallas, TX, the home of WrestleMania 38 where Jake’s brother, Logan Paul, made his WrestleMania debut.

Netflix will host the fight, and whether that may be scripted or not, their new property WWE RAW will be at the start of 2025.

Jake Paul Hits Back At “Blatant” Lies After Logan Claims He Was Offered Mike Tyson Fight First

Jake Paul has called out his brother for claiming he was set to fight Mike Tyson first, and has claimed the WWE United States Champion is telling lies. 

Jake Paul will face Tyson this July at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, the home of WWE WrestleMania 32. The fight will stream on Netflix, in the latest example of the streaming giant’s efforts to get into the world of sports-entertainment broadcasting. 

Logan Paul’s Claim

While Jake Paul will be the one to face ‘Iron Mike’ this July, he may have not been the first Paul brother contacted about the fight. On a recent edition of his ImPaulsive podcast, Logan claimed that he was previously approached about fighting Tyson. 

“I said no to fighting Mike Tyson. I was offered it, but not on Netflix and not for a big ass bag. It was just like, this could be a real fight.”

Jake Paul Responds

It didn’t take long for Jake to issue a response. On the Betr podcast, Jake refuted the notion that his fight with Tyson only came about after Logan had said no. 

“I hate that my brother and I’s relationship sometimes has to be aired out, but it seems as if the court of public opinion is the only thing that steers him in the right direction. It is weird to lie, to blatantly just lie.”

Jake added that he signed a deal with Netflix that would see the money he made depend on what kind of fighter he could find to face him. Jake makes clear that he was the one who brought the fight and Netflix deal to Tyson rather than Tyson’s people approaching him. He later spoke again about Logan’s alleged lies. 

“Why is my own brother trying to make me look the second option for Tyson. Like, ‘Oh yeah, I turned down that deal.’ No, you didn’t. That’s a complete lie. Why are you fabricating lies?”

Jake said he’d prefer not to air dirty laundry in public, but that seems to be a recurring problem when it comes to dealing with his brother. Logan is expected to compete at WWE WrestleMania 40. 

Netflix Showdown: Mike Tyson & Jake Paul to Collide In the Ring this July

Boxing icon and WWE Hall of Famer Mike Tyson will be stepping back in the ring later this year to face none other than Jake Paul. 

Paul, the brother of WWE United States Champion Logan Paul, will fight Tyson at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, the home of WWE WrestleMania 32. In a statement shared by ESPN, Netflix’s VP, Non-Fiction Sports Gabe Spitzer shared his excitement for the showdown.

“Mike Tyson is one of the biggest icons in boxing history and Jake Paul is one of the biggest disruptors in boxing history… July 20 will be pure drama in the ring.”

Mike Tyson in the Ring

Known as being one of, if not the greatest fighter in the sport, Tyson was the undisputed heavyweight champion from 1987 to 1990. Tyson hasn’t had a pro fight since 2005 and hasn’t fought since his exhibition match with Roy Jones Jr. in 2020. 

In pro-wrestling, Tyson featured prominently in the build to WrestleMania 14 (coinciding with a suspension from professional boxing for biting Evander Holyfield.) He has made appearances for WWE in the ears since and has also appeared for AEW. He was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2012. 

Jake Paul In the Ring 

At 27-years-old, Paul will enter the ring 31 years the junior of the legendary Tyson. The social media personality has proven himself in the ring, scoring a knockout on Nate Robinson in his second fight (on the undercard of the Tyson Vs. Jones fight.)

Paul has also dabbled in the world of wrestling. While nowhere near as involved as his brother, Jake appeared in the run-up to WWE Crown Jewel 2022, and aided his brother during the Undisputed WWE Universal title match with Roman Reigns. Jake Paul has also teased getting in the ring himself.

WWE & Netflix

Netflix will host the much-anticipated fight in the streaming giant’s latest dive into the world of combat sports. In January 2025, WWE Raw will begin airing on Netflix as part of a $5 billion deal between the two sides. Fans outside of the U.S. will receive Raw, SmackDown, and WWE NXT in addition to WWE’s archives of Premium Live Events. 

Randy Orton Takes a Dig at Logan Paul, Calling Him as ‘Jake’ Ahead of WWE Elimination Chamber

WWE’s 2024 Elimination Chamber is going down in Perth, Australia on February 24th, and fans will have to wake up early if they want to catch the show. The Chamber event is set to start at 5:00 AM for fans in the East Coast, and we have so much more information about the event in our official rundown. Logan Paul and Randy Orton are set to take part in the Men’s Chamber match, and they’re already having words.

Randy Orton and Logan Paul’s Twitter Battle

Randy Orton feels the best he has after his back fusion surgery. He is booked for the Elimination Chamber, and it seems that Logan Paul may have an RKO in store for him.

During the company’s Elimination Chamber conference in Perth prior to the big event, Paul and Orton had a little interaction. The Maverick then jumped on Twitter/X to share that video, along with a little comment to poke The Viper.

“What’s Wrong, Randy Orton?”

The Apex Predator saw this, and he responded to say, “You’ll find out tomorrow, Jake.” One would argue that calling Logan his brother’s name wins this little social media battle for Orton.

What’s Next On The Road To WrestleMania

The Elimination Chamber will set the stage for Seth Rollins’ opponent at WrestleMania. The Messiah is currently nursing an injury, so he’s likely going to stay out of the ring in any singles action until the show of shows.

I previously reported that there was serious talk of LA Knight challenging Logan Paul for the United States Title at WrestleMania, but you also never know if the company will book another multi-challenger match for that secondary title, and Randy Orton would be a prime contender to find a place in that contest.

Matt Riddle Reveals Whether He Would Face Jake Paul In A Boxing Bout

Former WWE star Matt Riddle recently spoke about the possibility of facing YouTuber Jake Paul in a boxing bout.

YouTubers such as KSI, Logan Paul and his brother Jake Paul are trained boxers. There has been a buzz that ‘The Original Bro’ and Jake Paul could lock horns and it seems we can’t rule out that match.

Riddle has immense experience in combat sports including Muay Thai and kickboxing. Riddle recently revealed that he would love to face Paul in a boxing bout. 

Matt Riddle comments on Jake Paul

Speaking with MuscleManMalcolm, Matt Riddle was asked if he would like to fight Jake Paul in a boxing match to which he replied that he would grab the opportunity. He made it clear that he would accept any fight for money. He said:

“I mean yeah, I’ll do anything for some money.”

He further added that he would prefer a mixed martial arts fight instead of a conventional boxing match. He said:

“But I prefer doing Mixed Martial Arts. Sp yeah, boxing whatever, kick boxing, whatever. I’ll fight anybody anytime.” 

Before joining WWE, Riddle had a run with UFC when he debuted at UFC’s The Ultimate Fighter 7 in 2008. He remarkably combined Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Muay Thai, and kickboxing techniques in his fights. In 12 matches inside the octagon, Riddle won eight times.

Jake Paul is supposed to make his MMA debut in 2024 as a part of the PFL’s newly created Super Fight division. He is set to face former UFC star Nate Diaz. Last weekend, Paul also emerged victorious via TKO over Andre August in a boxing bout.

Meanwhile, Riddle parted ways with WWE back in September after embroiling in controversial matters. He has since teased the fans about a return to MMA. 

Recently, reports emerged that ‘The Problem Child’ rejected an offer to face Riddle after being contacted by the latter’s camp. With Jake Paul making his MMA debut in 2024, the possibility of facing Matt Riddle remains in place.

Jake Paul Wants to be Logan’s Tag Team Partner in WWE

Jake Paul isn’t opposed to stepping in the ring with his brother Logan, but would rather be an ally of the U.S. Champion than an opponent. 

Logan Paul has made quite the impact since arriving in WWE two years ago and currently boasts a 4-4 win/loss record. At WWE Crown Jewel, Paul captured the U.S. Championship from Rey Mysterio, giving the Maverick his first taste of WWE gold. 

Jake Paul Wants a Tag Team

With Logan Paul making waves in WWE, speculation has grown as to whether Jake Paul could one day step into the ring with his brother. Speaking to Muscle Man Malcolm, Jake admitted that rather than facing his brother,  he’d rather team with the Maverick in a WWE ring. 

”Man, I’m trying to be on his team. I don’t want to go up against him. He’s a dog in WWE. I’m trying to be his tag team partner.”

Logan Paul has so far competed in one tag-team match in WWE, which was his debut match. The Maverick teamed with The Miz to defeat Rey & Dominik Mysterio but was betrayed by WWE’s resident A-Lister after the bout. 

Jake Paul in WWE

Unlike his brother, Jake Paul has yet to compete in WWE but has made an appearance in the past. The Problem Child was in Logan’s corner at Crown Jewel 2022 for Logan’s match with Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns. The Tribal Chief would win the match, handing Logan Paul his first WWE loss in the process.

Jake Paul believes that he and his brother Logan have been able to ‘master’ the newest form of entertainment that sees plenty of crossovers. 

Logan Paul signed with WWE in 2022 and has impressed fans with his skills in the ring. In addition to competing for WWE, Paul has also competed in boxing, and has his own brand of energy drinks ‘PRIME Energy.’ In addition to all of this, Paul continues to vlog and has millions of followers across his social media accounts. 

“That’s the new way of the entertainment industry. It’s doing it all, you have to do it all. You have to be in all the places and all the businesses, marketing yourself, staying busy, creating companies and that’s I think what me and my brother have proven and shown. It’s being multifaceted and being different. People want to see something they’ve never seen before and I think we’ve mastered that.”

Jake Paul in WWE?

Logan Paul may be WWE’s reigning U.S. Champion, but his brother isn’t against challenging the Maverick. During the interview, Jake was asked about possibly facing his brother in the ring and said: 

“Yeah, I’m down. Let’s run it, Logan. Let’s run it.”

Jake hasn’t competed for WWE yet but appeared in support of his brother at WWE Crown Jewel 2022. Logan Paul’s first defense as U.S. Champion will see him face the winner of an ongoing tournament on SmackDown.

Drew McIntyre is “Already” a Better Boxer than Jake Paul After One Training Session

Jake Paul may not be a WWE Superstar just yet, but that hasn’t stopped Drew McIntyre from calling him out.

Paul’s brother Logan made his in-ring debut at last year’s WrestleMania, and has impressed fans with his ability in the ring.

For his Crown Jewel match with Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns, Logan recruited his brother, but the pair failed to dethrone the Tribal Chief.

McIntyre Vs. Paul

Away from YouTube, Jake Paul has been making a name for himself in the world, of boxing, earning victories over YouTuber AnEsonGib, NBA star Nate Robinson and former MMA fighters Ben Askren.

Tyron Woodley and Anderson Silva have also fallen to Jake Paul, but these wins haven’t impressed WWE’s Scottish Warrior.

This week, McIntyre joined Sheamus for an episode of Celtic Warrior Workouts, which saw them train with three-time world kickboxing champion Bernard “Swiftkick” Robinson.

Sharing the video on social media, McIntyre took aim at Paul saying that he was already a better boxer after one training session.

Sheamus responded to McIntyre’s bold claim and encouraged WWE to book the match.

Jake Paul’s next fight will take place today when he faces off against Tommy Fury, the brother of lineal heavyweight champion Tyson Fury.

Jake Paul in WWE

After the success of Logan Paul in WWE, it isn’t hard to see why some believe Jake could join the promotion.

Speaking with Ariel Helwani on the MMA Hour, Jake said he would consider joining WWE, but is concerned about the risk it could have on his boxing career.

I’m down. I just don’t want to get injured. My brother tore his MCL; it’s crazy out there. So, I just don’t want it to derail my boxing and all that, but I’m down.

“I love WWE. I love working with my brother. So that would definitely be something that could be on the horizon, for sure.”

Jake Paul.

As for Logan Paul, he is expected to face Seth Rollins at WrestleMania 39 this April.

John Cena Shares Cryptic Photo of Logan and Jake Paul Amid Rumors He’s Competing at WWE WrestleMania

John Cena knows how to get people talking with his provocative social media posts. Pro wrestling’s ‘other’ 16-time world champion has proven to be a master at dropping cryptic comments and photos that touch upon current events.

His tweets are primarily inspirational quotes. His Instagram posts range from playful to downright bewildering. The photos are almost always submitted without a caption, which fuels speculation about what exactly he’s referencing.

Cena returned to the ring on the final SmackDown of 2022. He and Kevin Owens teamed up to defeat The Bloodline’s Roman Reigns and Sami Zayn. The show delivered massive viewership, proving that Cena can still deliver eyeballs when needed.

John Cena’s Latest Tease

The leader of the Cenation is rumored to be competing at WrestleMania in April, with Logan Paul and Austin Theory discussed as his most likely opponents. Both men have campaigned for a match against Cena at WrestleMania.

Cena’s in-ring career is winding down, so this is a fleeing opportunity for anyone hoping to work with the iconic star before he hangs up the boots once and for all.

Amid reports that WWE is attempting to get Logan Paul to appear at the Royal Rumble on January 28, Cena shared a photo of Logan and his brother Jake Paul on Instagram. It’s worth noting that he didn’t post just any random photo of them. He chose a photo that included Logan Paul holding the WWE Championship.

Jake Paul has never competed in a pro wrestling match, but he’s no stranger to WWE. He’s spoken about being a pro wrestling fan while growing up. The Problem Child even appeared at WWE Crown Jewel to help back his brother Logan against The Bloodline. He later teased that they might team up at some point.

During a recent interview with DAZN, Jake Paul spoke about his love for WWE. While wearing a Hulk Hogan t-shirt, he was asked to name his all-time favorite wrestler.

“Hulk, probably, yeah,” said Paul. “Him or John Cena, which is like super cliché, but there’s a reason why John Cena was the greatest in the world, brother.”

Tyson Fury Wants WWE Tag Team Match With Jake & Logan Paul

Boxing star Tyson Fury is ready to get back in a WWE ring if it means getting his hands on Jake and Logan Paul.

In 2019, Fury competed in his first (and to date, only) WWE match, defeating Braun Strowman at that year’s Crown Jewel Premium Live Event via count out.

Fury’s most recent appearance came at WWE Clash at the Castle in September of this year, preventing then-Mr. Money in the Bank Austin Theory from cashing in.

The Paul Brothers

In the years since Crown Jewel 2019, Fury has teased a return to WWE, something the promotion’s management would love to see.

Speaking to Boxing Social this past week, Fury again expressed his excitement at a return to the WWE ring.

“I can’t wait, smashing a chair on somebody’s head.”

Tyson Fury.

When asked about a tag-team match, pitting the Pauls against Tyson and his father, the former boxer John Fury, the ‘Gypsy King’ was on board.

“Yeah that sounds good, let’s do it!”

Tyson Fury.

This past weekend, Fury retained the WBC World Heavyweight Championship and dominated Derek Chisora before the referee stopped the fight in the tenth round.

Fury’s Other Match

Tyson Fury may have his sights set on the Paul brothers, but Drew McIntyre is also a potential opponent for the Boxing megastar.

Over the years, both McIntyre and Fury have teased a match that would take place at a WWE Premium Live Event in the United Kingdom.

While both men appeared at Clash at the Castle, they didn’t come to blows but instead serenaded the crowd in Cardiff, Wales to close out the show.

Logan Paul on a Tag Team With Jake Paul in WWE: “That Would be Amazing”

Logan Paul shocked the world at WWE Crown Jewel in his match against Roman Reigns.

The Tribal Chief put the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship on the line against Logan Paul in just the third match of his career. Logan entered the match 2-0, with a tag team victory with The Miz over The Mysterios at WrestleMania, followed by a singles victory over The Miz at SummerSlam in Nashville.

The 27-year-old gave Roman everything he could handle in the match but in the end it was not meant to be. The Usos interfered and beat down Logan’s Impaulsive podcast co-hosts. Jake Paul made the save and Logan flipped onto everyone on the entrance ramp. He was greeted with a Superman Punch and a Spear when he got back into the ring and Reigns retained.

Logan Paul Thinks He and Jake Would Make A Great Tag Team in WWE

TMZ Sports caught up with Logan Paul yesterday and asked if he would consider tagging with his brother in WWE. He said he would and claimed that the duo would be insane in WWE.

I mean, it could be crazy, right? I don’t think that’s deniable. That would be amazing. That would be incredible.

Logan was asked if he was done with boxing and just going to focus on WWE moving forward. He said that he’s not done with boxing just taking a break due to injury.

I’ll be back boxing, of course. I just got injured, otherwise, I was set to do a boxing match.

Update on Jake Paul’s Status with WWE

Popular YouTuber & boxer Jake Paul made a surprising appearance last night during WWE Crown Jewel.

His brother, Logan Paul, challenged Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship in the main event of the premium live event. During the match, The Usos made their way to the ring and attacked the co-hosts of Logan’s Impaulsive podcast.

Jake Paul came down the entrance ramp to his own music and knocked Jimmy & Jey out of the ring. Solo Sikoa joined the party and Logan hit him with a dive over the ropes.

The Tribal Chief capitalized on the distractions and hit Logan with a Superman Punch, followed by a Spear for the pinfall victory. After the match, Logan announced that he suffered a major injury on social media.

Is Jake Paul WWE Bound?

Many fans have speculated that Jake will be appearing in WWE more often following Crown Jewel but there is nothing concrete yet. According to Mike Johnson of PWInsider, there is a lot of mutual interest to do something together then the time is right but nothing is official yet.

During an interview following Crown Jewel, Jake was asked if he was going to pursue a WWE career in the future.

For sure. Why not? That was so much fun and I know we can take it a long way. I loved it. I loved everything about it. Everyone here, everyone in the WWE was super nice and super helpful. It seems like an amazing company to be a part of.

Jake Paul Will be in His Brother Logan’s Corner for WWE Crown Jewel 2022

Logan Paul will have the biggest match of his career this Saturday at Crown Jewel, but he won’t be going in alone.

At WWE’s latest Saudi Arabia show, Paul will face Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns in the presumed main event of the night.

This will mark Paul’s third official match for WWE, after picking up victories at Wrestlemania and Summerslam.

“Jake Paul is going to be there. Jake Paul in Logan Paul’s corner and The Usos in Roman Reigns’ corner, and Solo Sikoa.”

Dave Meltzer.

During the recent 2022 Q3 earnings call, Triple H teaed that both Paul brothers would be at Crown Jewel.

Jake Paul: WWE Superstar?

Whether fans like it or not, Logan Paul is a contracted WWE Superstar, but will his brother follow in his footsteps?

Logan certainly believes so, as he recently told Ryan Satin that Jake in WWE will happen (via Bleacher Report.)

“Truthfully, I think it’s inevitable. I’m biased, but I think what we’re doing is incredibly exciting, at least for me, personally, it is incredibly exciting.

“If I were watching two brothers take over, and I use that word intentionally, take over two highly entertaining sports, boxing and wrestling in a way that has never been done before, my curiosity would be peaked.”

Jake Paul: “I’d Love to Have Paul Heyman in my Corner”

Logan Paul is just days away from having the biggest pro wrestling match of his career thus far when he steps into the ring to challenge Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Title in the main event of Saturday’s Crown Jewel event in Saudi Arabia. 

Paul’s brother, Jake, will be paying attention to the match, and he thinks Logan can dethrone Reigns as the champion.

“My brother is going to become champion. I believe that. This is his time. It’s crazy, so crazy Logan has this match,” Paul said to Sports Illustrated. “I’m so proud of him. It’s surreal he has this opportunity, and it’s serendipitous that his event and my event are happening on back-to-back weekends. We’re taking over the world. We’re the next Kardashians.”

Jake is four days removed from picking up a boxing victory against former UFC Middleweight Champion Anderson Silva. He sees himself potentially working with WWE and would be open to partnering with the legendary Paul Heyman, the special counsel of Reigns. 

“Paul Heyman is very entertaining and smart. I love a lot of the WWE characters, and he’s on another level. I’d love him in my corner. We’d be Paul and Paul.”

Logan Paul Teases Major Appearance For Crown Jewel

Logan Paul is all set to challenge Roman Reigns for the WWE Universal Championship at Crown Jewel on November 5. Though he realizes that The Tribal Chief won’t be the only problem he’d be dealing with at the show. The rest of The Bloodline will also be there to hinder his momentum. Logan will need any help he can to overcome the number’s game and he is teasing a very interesting solution to even the odds.

The YouTube star recently had a 1-on-1 interview with Ryan Satin. Among other things, he was asked about his brother and boxing star Jake Paul possibly crossing over into WWE someday. Replying to it, Logan claimed that it’s inevitable. Furthermore, he teased this crossover for the upcoming Saudi event, saying that he’s going to need his own bloodline to combat the bloodline of his opponent:

“Truthfully, I think it’s inevitable. I mean, I’m biased, but I think what we’re doing is incredibly exciting, at least for me personally. It is incredibly exciting. I often try to separate me as the entertainer and me as a consumer.” said Logan Paul, “If I were watching two brothers take over, and I use that word intentionally, take over two highly entertaining sports – boxing, and wrestling, in a way that has never been done before, my curiosity would be piqued.

He’s fighting Anderson Silva, one of the greatest combat sports fighters of all time, one week before I take on the Tribal Chief, the face of the WWE for the title in Saudi Arabia [at] Crown Jewel. It’s never happened before. It’s unreplicable. You can’t duplicate this. History is unfolding in front of your eyes live. People are gonna choose whether to tune in or not, and I’m urging you to tune in. Because you’re gonna want to watch this. We’re making history as we speak. I think Jake’s crossover into the WWE is inevitable. Bro, I need a bloodline. Roman got his. I got mine. Where he at?”

Jake Paul Teasing Crown Jewel Appearance For Logan Paul vs. Roman Reigns

Logan Paul will be attempting to do the impossible at Crown Jewel when he challenges Roman Reigns for the Unified WWE Universal Championship.

One big problem the YouTube star will have to overcome if he wants to win the title is The Bloodline. Now it appears that he might not have to do it alone.

Logan’s brother Jake Paul recently replied to the announcement of this Crown Jewel match, and he noted that he might have to go to Saudi Arabia for this bout:

“Logan is the definition of anything is possible. 2 matches in WWE and he’s challenging for the belt. I might have to come to Saudi Arabia for this.”

Apart from being a celebrity, Jake Paul is also a boxer. He has defeated opponents such as retired MMA star Ben Askren and former UFC champion Tyron Woodley.

There is no doubt that the rest of the Bloodline will accompany Roman Reigns for his match against Logan Paul at the Saudi show.

With Jake’s boxing background, it wouldn’t be a surprise if he ends up joining the action to help even the odds and help his brother win the biggest prize in sports entertainment.

Jake Paul Open To Teaming With Logan In WWE

Jake Paul is open to teaming up with his older brother, Logan, in WWE down the line if the opportunity presents itself.

The younger Paul brother was recently interviewed on “Carton & Roberts” over on WFAN Sports Radio 101.9 FM/66AM New York to promote his upcoming pay-per-view (PPV) clash with Hasim Rahman Jr.

During the interview, Paul was asked about potentially joining his older brother, Logan, in WWE. Jake said he’s open to the idea down the line, but not anytime soon as he’s focused on his boxing career.

“The Problem Child” doesn’t want to take the risk of getting injured while he’s still actively competing in boxing. He did, however, note that he believes it’ll be difficult for anyone to defeat a duo of himself and Logan.

Maybe someday, I just can’t get injured right now going off the top rope…That could be interesting,” Paul said (via MMA News). “I think we could become the WWE Champions, I don’t think anyone would beat us.”

While Jake Paul might not be all-in for WWE at the moment, Logan certainly is. He recently signed a multi-year deal deal with WWE, keeping him around for the foreseeable future.

Logan made his WWE in-ring debut at WrestleMania 38 back in April. He teamed up with The Miz to defeat the team of Rey and Dominik Mysterio. After the match, however, Miz attacked Logan, leaving him in the ring after hitting him with the Skull-Crushing Finale.

Now, a potential matchup involving Miz and Logan Paul is being teased for SummerSlam later this month.
