Logan Paul has revealed that WWE has contacted him to inform him that he is not allowed to box NFL players, after his open challenge.
Following Logan Paul’s recent back-and-forth with Tom Brady, after Brady called WWE a “cute” sport, Paul announced a $1 million open bet to fight any current or former NFL player.
The WWE star had public conversations with a number of athletes about potential fights, including Le’Veon Bell, to whom he instead proposed that they spar in either boxing or MMA until one of them quits next weekend, and Breiden Fehoko, who told Paul to send him a contract.
With plans to fight Bell and Fehoko during the weekend of March 14-15, footage of Logan Paul speaking with a WWE representative has now emerged.
In the video, courtesy of Happy Punch, Paul is informed that WWE is not granting him permission to have these fights, with the representative calling the ordeal an “unnecessary risk.”
You can watch this video below.
Paul has since taken to Twitter to confirm that these fights will no longer be going ahead following “the bosses” calling.
Logan Paul tweeted:
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
