There have been teases of WWE going in the direction of booking Seth Rollins against Logan Paul at WrestleMania 39 coming out of this year’s Royal Rumble pay-per-view event.
Pwinsider reported the following today: “Logan Paul vs. Seth Rollins, which was strongly teased at the Royal Rumble, is 100% set in stone for Wrestlemania 39.”
Rollins recently appeared on “The Pat McAfee Show” where he spoke in character about Paul’s time in WWE thus far. He said,
“So all of us who have come off the top rope before, it’s not as special because we just didn’t have a camera pointed at our own stupid face? We have people whose job it is to shoot us. I don’t need a selfie to make myself look good. The guy doesn’t care about nothing but himself. I can respect the hustle. I respect the hustle, I really do. It takes hustle to get where he’s at and to get the opportunities that he’s got. But at the end of the day, it’s about passion. No one’s just gonna shut up and play NFL football because they’re a social media superstar. They’re gonna get creamed. So he’s gonna step into my world, and he’s gonna get creamed. If you want to contribute and you want to give back to our industry, you’re a fan of it, you’re a fan of it, you love it, right, Pat? You’re a fan of it. You love it, you give back to it, you talk about it any chance you get, you put it over. You love it. That’s not him. He’s in it for himself. He’s in it for himself, he’s in it for his own gain.”
“I don’t want you [to be] part of my business if you’re just gonna leach off of it and you’re gonna take from it. Great, if you’re gonna come and you’re gonna help out and you’re gonna make everything as good as you can. But if you’re gonna come and you’re gonna do it for you… look, I can only judge based on what he’s done in the past, his own history, because that’s a foretelling for the future, that’s why I don’t like the guy. That’s why I don’t dig the guy. He’s gonna go rub it in on social media. He’s gonna talk his talk, but he doesn’t want to say nothing to my face.”
WWE has only confirmed Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns vs. Cody Rhodes and SmackDown Women’s Champion Charlotte Flair vs. Rhea Ripley for the April show.
