Logan Paul Issues Public Statement After Surprising WWE Ban

Logan Paul has backed out of a fight.

The Maverick had offered to put up $1 Million to fight NFL players in a boxing match.

Two names actually showed interest: former running back Le’Veon Bell and former Los Angeles Chargers and Pittsburgh Steelers player Breiden Fehoko.

Logan Paul has claimed WWE banned him

While the wrestling and NFL fans wanted to see this happen, especially after the whole fiasco of Tom Brady referring to wrestling as “cute” on Paul’s podcast.

However, The YouTuber has now issued a statement revealing that WWE has banned him from fighting the match against former NFL players, lest he suffer an injury.

Welp. The bosses called

Turns out I’m too valuable of a WWE Superstar to be fighting bums

I want to take this opportunity to congratulate @LeVeonBell and @BreidenFehoko for their 15 minutes of relevancy. Now back to being broke and retired

I’m going back to RAW every Monday on Netflix @WWE

Both former NFL players took to social media to call out Logan Paul for staging the phone call with WWE because he did not want to fight and end up in a similar situation as Jake Paul when he fought Anthony Joshua.
