During an episode of Vince Russo’s The Brand, the former WWE head writer proposed a storyline pairing between Logan Paul and Hulk Hogan. The creative pitch centered around the similarly hostile crowd responses both superstars have recently received.
Speaking on his podcast, Russo outlined his vision for this potential alliance.
I got great creative for Hulk Hogan in 2025. You know who they should bring Hulk Hogan in to manage? Logan Paul. Would that not be heat? Would that not be heat? Can you imagine the storyline is if everybody’s getting on Logan Paul because he doesn’t know wrestling? He doesn’t respect the business, this and that. So, he said, ‘Fine, I’m going to go and learn from the best and the greatest,’ and Hogan brings him in. Oh my god!
The suggested pairing follows Hogan’s appearance on WWE Raw’s Netflix premiere, where fans responded negatively to the Hall of Famer. This reaction mirrors the consistent hostile reception Paul receives during his appearances as United States Champion.
AJ Styles Addresses Royal Rumble Elimination by Logan Paul
AJ Styles confronted the aftermath of his Royal Rumble elimination at the hands of Logan Paul. In a WWE digital exclusive interview with Cathy Kelley after the event, Styles expressed his frustration.
I’ll never live that down, getting eliminated by Logan Paul. At least I’m not alone in the shame, but you know what? I got out there and I did what I needed to do. I stayed long there, was in there with the big dogs, and I held my ground. Unfortunately, I didn’t see the one coming behind me, who apparently jumped on the table, scaffold his way back over to the steps and caught me off guard. But this is the WWE. You will lose. You will win. Accept it. Move on. Next Big Thing.
