John Cena's return match, "We're going to go f*****g crazy" - 4 WWE Superstars Logan Paul can feud with when he returns

Logan Paul last competed in WWE at SummerSlam 2024, losing the United States Championship to LA Knight. The Maverick has been away ever since, with no indication as to when he will return. Many people expected him to make a comeback on the road to Crown Jewel 2024, but just over two weeks away from the Saudi Arabia show, he has not returned.

Whenever the social media megastar does return, he will have several dream potential opponents to face. His unique blend of athleticism, cockiness, and showmanship makes him a perfect foil for multiple stars across the card, almost guaranteeing that they will be in one of the most talked-about matches of any show. So, who will step up to the 29-year-old star upon his return?

Below are four potential opponents for Logan Paul upon his impending WWE return.

#4. Logan Paul has teased a feud with Jacob Fatu upon his WWE return

Jacob Fatu has been incredibly impressive since he debuted in WWE. The Samoan Werewolf was introduced in the main event mix, and he dominated everyone who came in his way. Fatu has wreaked havoc on names such as Randy Orton, Cody Rhodes, and Roman Reigns, elevating the stock of The Bloodline and cementing himself as a rising star.

Everyone has taken notice, and Logan Paul has been no exception, speaking highly of the 32-year-old star. Paul even paid Fatu one of the highest compliments possible by saying he considers the latter tough competition and that it is inevitable for them to face off. No one knows when it will happen, but Fatu vs. Paul is a perfect feud leading up to WrestleMania 41 if the Maverick makes a return at the 2025 Royal Rumble.

#3. Logan Paul could get a World Heavyweight Championship shot against Gunther

Just as Logan Paul is a dream opponent for many WWE Superstars due to his athleticism and showmanship, Gunther is a dream rival for his gritty throwback style. The Ring General is considered by many to be the best professional wrestler in the world today, an assessment that is difficult to disagree with. Most fans would love to see how his dominant work would mesh with Paul's high-flying skills.

Given that the Imperium leader has thrived working with similarly agile stars in the past, and the Maverick has never competed for the World Heavyweight Championship, this story writes itself. Although they are both heels, a feud between them would work because Paul stands for everything the Austrian star despises about the business.

Triple H, if you're reading this, pull the trigger on this feud!

#2. Logan Paul and CM Punk could make magic together

Logan Paul and CM Punk are two of the most polarizing stars in WWE today. Both are hugely popular with a big section of fans and at the same time much reviled by another section. Both men have the gift of gab and can elicit reactions from any audience at the snap of a finger.

A feud between Paul and Punk would have it all: promo battles, engaging character work, exciting in-ring action, and more. It would definitely elevate the Maverick to work with someone like the Second City Saint, and it would be a fresh feud for the 45-year-old star as well. Wouldn't that be a nice change from his recent rivalries stretching from Drew McIntyre all the way back to AEW? Only time will tell.

#1. John Cena vs. Logan Paul has been in WWE's plans for a while

Ever since Logan Paul arrived in WWE, he has been vocal about wanting to face John Cena. The Maverick and The Chain Gang Soldier are two of the most recognizable faces in the company, with a total of over 150 million followers across X/Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok. A match between them would have great mainstream potential, especially with some epic viral moments.

With this in mind, should Paul be the first man to step up to Cena when the latter kicks off his "Retirement Tour" on RAW's Netflix debut? Should the duo have a little bit of build-up leading to a match at the 2025 Royal Rumble? This match, which was reportedly planned for WrestleMania 39, would certainly excite many people, and help the Maverick's stock reach greater heights.
