A WWE Hall of Famer has weighed in on the idea of having Logan Paul and his brother Jake Paul at WrestleMania. The Maverick has been absent from WWE television after losing the United States Championship at SummerSlam 2024.

The 29-year-old has delivered impressive in-ring performances in limited appearances since joining the wrestling promotion in 2022. His brother Jake Paul has also made a name for himself in the boxing world. Wrestling legend JBL recently spoke very highly of the Paul brothers.

During his appearance on the Something to Wrestle podcast, John "Bradshaw" Layfield said it would be great to have Paul brothers at The Showcase of the Immortals. The former WWE Champion praised the two while pointing out that they were over with fans and had accumulated a fortune because of it.

“I think it’d be awesome. I think it’d be awesome to have Jake Paul at WrestleMania, [and] to have Logan Paul at WrestleMania. Those two guys are amazing to me, absolutely amazing. They’ve done incredible things, and with their internet, with their YouTube that they’re doing. It’s a story that’s beyond belief. Those guys have gotten over, and they’re making hundreds of millions of dollars [in] career earnings because of the fact that they’ve gotten over," JBL said. [H/T: Fightful]

Current WWE champion recently fired shots at Logan Paul

Logan Paul defeated Rey Mysterio at Crown Jewel 2023 to win his first-ever WWE title, the United States Championship. He held the title for an impressive 273 days before losing it to LA Knight earlier this year at SummerSlam. Despite being a champion for so long, Logan defended his title only twice before losing it to The Megastar.

On the latest edition of Friday Night SmackDown, LA Knight threw shade at Logan Paul's title reign. During his promo, the 42-year-old claimed he rejected Sami Zayn's offer to join the OG Bloodline since he wanted to focus on the US Title. Knight added he was not like Logan, who defended the gold two times a year.

“I got my own investment to worry about and that’s this thing right here. Now this ain’t the Logan Paul show! We ain’t out defending this just two times a year,” he said.

You can check out LA Knight's promo in the video below.
