WWE fans have grown to appreciate — albeit grudgingly in some cases — the way Logan Paul has acclimated to pro wrestling so quickly. Could the same go for his younger brother Jake Paul? WWE commentator Corey Graves thinks so.
To date, Jake Paul’s only WWE appearances have come while supporting Logan, as he did at Crown Jewel in the fall of 2022. But Graves believes that not only will the social media star and boxer follow his sibling to WWE, he may even do it in the next few months.
Appearing on The Gunz Show podcast, Graves pointed out that Jake Paul is currently training for a high profile and mush discussed boxing match with Mike Tyson. But after that, he believes the 27-year-old could turn up by one of WWE’s biggest events of the year (h/t Fightful for the transcription).
If I’m being totally honest, I would start counting down the minutes before Jake shows up. I don’t think it’s going to happen anytime soon with the Tyson fight looming, but on a long enough timeline, we have to have the Paul brothers competing in the tag division at least once or twice. It just dawned on me that SummerSlam is in Cleveland this year. That’s where the Paul brothers hail from. I’m just saying. I don’t know anything, I’m just theorizing and putting it out into the universe. Maybe Jake Paul will be in WWE sooner rather than later.
The Cleveland connection is hard to ignore, as WWE (and pro wrestling companies in general, to be fair) has had tremendous success utilizing celebrities and stars from other sports in their hometown markets. SummerSlam would almost certainly be too early for Jake Paul to have a full-fledged match, but the idea of him doing something there that would start the ball rolling on a full-time role with the company doesn’t seem too far-fetched at all.
That’s good news for anyone curious to see if the Paul family lightning can strike twice, though it’s probably less thrilling for those who find Logan’s antics annoying. Still, given that Jake Paul also has a large existing fan base and knowing how well that worked out for his brother, it wouldn’t be surprising at all if Graves is on point about him showing up before the end of the year.
