Logan Paul, known originally as a YouTube celebrity, has transitioned into the world of professional wrestling with WWE. He’s become a prominent figure on the SmackDown brand, even holding the prestigious WWE United States Championship.
Prior to his wrestling career, Paul gained fame through his online presence and also dabbled in professional boxing, following in the footsteps of his brother, Jake Paul. However, it appears Logan Paul has lost fan support over his troubled relationship with Jake Paul.
Logan Paul Lost Fan Support Due to Turbulent Relationship with Jake Paul
Streamer Adin Ross provided his take on recent comments made by Logan Paul during an episode of his podcast, ImPaulsive, featuring JJ “KSI.” KSI shared his perspective on Jake Paul’s upcoming fight with Mike Tyson, expressing doubts due to Tyson’s age. In agreement, Logan mentioned he also conveyed similar thoughts to Jake, suggesting Tyson might not knock out Jake unless he actively attempts to do so.
“I told Jake that (Mike Tyson is old). I don’t think he will knock him out unless Mike tries to knock him out.”
Adin Ross, responding to Logan’s comment while they were both present, expressed that Logan hadn’t fulfilled the role of an elder brother by siding with KSI on social media.
“Can I say one thing? And I said this on your podcast, I’m just gonna be honest with you, I’ve only had good interactions with Logan but I don’t think Logan is your brother on the internet.”

Another clip saw Jake Paul wondering why Logan Paul would blatantly lie about him and undermine his achievement.
“My own Wonder Woman 1984 trying to make me look like the second option for Tyson. That’s a complete lie.”
Fans took to Twitter and called out Logan Paul for this, as some stated that he is a bad brother.
Logan is actually the worst brother of all time. If my brothers were like this i would not be in a good place

Of course, one can hope Logan Paul will realize the error of his ways and fix his relationship with his brother.
Logan Paul Previously Reflected on His Fallout with The Rock
In a recent episode of Impaulsive, Logan Paul reflected on his strained relationship with Dwayne Johnson, also known as The Rock. During a conversation with John Cena, Paul acknowledged the pain he caused Dwayne Johnson, particularly referencing a video filmed in Japan that impacted Johnson’s mother. Paul admitted that he hurt Johnson deeply, to the point where the latter wanted to sever ties with him entirely.
Paul confessed that if he were in Johnson’s position, he would have done the same thing. He recounted feeling a profound sense of disappointment in himself for letting down not only his hero but also his fans and family. Paul emphasized the emotional impact of disappointing his idol, expressing that the rejection hurt deeply, especially considering that the message came not directly from Johnson but through his publicist.
“DJ was one of the people I hurt via the Japan video because of his mother’s experience. That’s his experience to tell and I’m not going to share. But like, I hurt him. So much so that he basically wanted nothing to do with me, and rightfully so I let down my hero. And he requested that I remove all the content that we’ve ever done together and basically kicked me to the curb.”
The Maverick acknowledged the lingering impact of the incident, admitting that he carries the memory of being cast aside by his idol. He recognized that if he ever achieves the level of success of Dwayne Johnson, he will never forget the experience of being discarded. Paul admitted that he still has unresolved feelings about the situation and anticipates the possibility of encountering Johnson again in the WWE. He admitted uncertainty about how he would handle such an encounter.
