Logan Paul has revealed that he wants to take on Bad Bunny in a WWE match.
The challenge posed by the YouTuber comes in light of comments made by the Puerto Rican rapper during a new interview.
Speaking to Rolling Stone for a recent feature, the reggaeton star looked back at his time wrestling and revealed that he is looking to get back in the ring one last time. This, he said, was because he didn’t feel like he put enough at risk during his last match with the company in 2023.
“I want to do it one more time,” he told the outlet. “I want to put my life at risk in the ring. I felt like I didn’t risk it enough in the ring, and I want to do it. I want to scare my mother.
“When? I don’t know,” he added. “Sometimes, I say, ‘I’m going to quit everything and just do wrestling full time. I feel like in wrestling, I just go sporadically as a celebrity.
“I’m going to go full-time and be a heel. That’s what I’d love… I was always a fan of the villains more than the good guys.”
Now, the comments made in the interview have made their way over to social media and piqued the interest of Logan Paul, who has also made a name for himself in the wrestling community.

Responding to ESPN’s repost of the rapper’s comments, Paul took to Instagram to challenge Bad Bunny to a future match. “Then get in the ring with me,” he wrote, sharing a screenshot on his Instagram Stories.
Bad Bunny’s history with WWE began in 2021 when he wrote the track ‘Booker T’, named after one of the organisation’s wrestlers. Bad Bunny went on to perform the song at the 2021 Royal Rumble, before getting into the ring himself and taking part in the action.
In March 2021, he agreed to step into the ring at WWE’s WrestleMania, and went on to fight former WWE champion The Miz, aka Michael Mizanin. The following year he also took on Brock Lesnar at WWE’s Royal Rumble in St. Louis, Missouri.
In 2023, the Puerto Rican superstar took part in his first ever solo wrestling match, going up against Damien Priest during WWE’s Street Fight In San Juan.
As highlighted by Complex, if the match between him and Logan Paul were to take place, it would be a fitting head-to-head as both were trained by Mike “The Miz” Mizanin before debuting in WWE. Each has also gone up against Kevin Owens, L.A. Knight, Damien Priest, and more.
Like Bad Bunny, Paul also shared that he was taking a step back from wrestling in recent times. He shared the news last year and said that he was taking time out to focus on fatherhood.
That being said, he hasn’t stepped away from the sport entirely – earlier this month he featured on the WWE Monday Night Raw Netflix premiere, which hinted at his comeback.
On a more personal level, a potential match between Bad Bunny and Logan Paul would also come in light of the latter criticising the rapper in 2022, accusing him of taking advantage of his home country’s tax breaks.
In other wrestling news, at the start of this year Netflix aired the first episode of its 10-year deal with WWE. This featured a host of iconic names including Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, John Cena, The Undertaker, and Hulk Hogan. The latter didn’t receive a warm welcome from the audience, however.
As for Bad Bunny, earlier this week the artist announced a new 21-show residency in his hometown. The announcement came shortly after the release of his latest album ‘Debí Tirar Más Fotos’, which followed 2023’s ‘Nadie Sabe Lo Que Va a Pasar Mañana’.
