Logan Paul hasn’t appeared on WWE programming since dropping the United States Championship at SummerSlam 2024. The 29-year-old star has impressed audiences with his in-ring abilities since joining WWE in 2022, while his brother Jake Paul continues making waves in boxing.

“I think it’d be awesome. I think it’d be awesome to have Jake Paul at WrestleMania, [and] to have Logan Paul at WrestleMania. Those two guys are amazing to me, absolutely amazing. They’ve done incredible things, and with their internet, with their YouTube that they’re doing. It’s a story that’s beyond belief. Those guys have gotten over, and they’re making hundreds of millions of dollars [in] career earnings because of the fact that they’ve gotten over,” JBL said.
