Logan Paul has proven he belongs in WWE, impressing everyone with how fast he’s adapted to pro wrestling. But he’s not the only performer to come from the outside and turn heads over the past year or two.
Mega-popular recording artist Bad Bunny has also made a big impression in a short period of time, stunning many observers with several strong in-ring showings. In some respects, what he’s done is even more surprising than Paul, who is a more stereotypically athletic guy (and has dabbled in boxing).
With Paul recently winning the United States Championship at Crown Jewel and currently residing in Bad Bunny’s homeland of Puerto Rico, ESPN’s Marc Raimondi asked the Maverick if there was any chance the two of them might end up in the ring together at some point. Paul said he’d leave that to Triple H but also scoffed a bit at the size difference involved.
He is good, but he’s scrawny, man. I’m pushing 250.
Then Paul brought up something that really seemed to have him incredulous: the two of them being rated equally in the current WWE video game.
Yo, that’s the crazy thing. On the WWE 2K23, he has the same rating as me, so maybe I don’t know anything.
While the WWE 2K23 ratings definitely shouldn’t be taken as gospel, maybe Paul has a point. Or if Bad Bunny wasn’t busy being arguably the most popular musician in the world right now, he’d have had his first title shot too.
Either way, though, it’s fun to keep these two in the minds of WWE fans as much as possible, and the idea of them crossing paths in a program isn’t actually all that crazy. Maybe someday.
