A former WWE superstar thinks Tom Brady was telling the truth when talking about wrestlers compared to NFL players.

Logan Paul is a WWE superstar who will be taking part in the Fanatic Fantasy Football Classic on Saturday, March 21st, along with several legendary NFL players like Tom Brady, Rob Gronkowski, and other current NFL players, along with superstars.

In the weeks leading up to the fantasy football game, Tom Brady has ruffled some feathers by calling WWE superstars like Paul “cute” and using the word “fake” when talking about pro wrestling.

When Brady appeared on Paul’s Impaulsive podcast, the NFL legend and WWE superstar exchanged words.

Brady: “I’m actually a little worried for you. You’re a good athlete… but these guys are on another level.”

Paul immediately questioned what Brady was saying.

Paul: “Can Saquon Barkley do a flip off the top rope?”

Brady had a quick reply that went viral.

Brady: “It’s cute, I love WWE. It’s very cute. But this is real football. This is real competition. These are guys who’ve been doing this their whole lives. This isn’t a gimmick.’

Ex-WWE Wrestler AJ Francis Agrees That Wrestlers Are Fake Tough Guys

TNA wrestler AJ Francis played in the NFL before becoming a wrestler and gaining fame as WWE’s Top Dolla. While commenting on a Tom Brady clip criticizing WWE superstars, Francis agreed with Brady that many pro wrestlers are fake-tough.

Tom Brady is correct… 99.9% of wrestlers are fake tough guys and I would personally beat the shit out of them. 🤌🏽💰💰💰

Have a great weekend.
