Earlier this week, Logan Paul sent out a cryptic graphic of himself and his brother Jake (via X) alongside the caption “The moment you’ve waited a decade for… March 27 on [MAX].” Naturally, many fans assumed this post to be an indicator of an upcoming fight between the brothers. As revealed in a Warner Bros. Discovery press release, it was rather a teaser for a new reality series.
The series, titled “Paul American,” will be a MAX original, with its premiere date set for Thursday, March 27. From there, the weekly series will chronicle the lives of Logan and Jake Paul across eight episodes up until its series finale, which is penciled in for May 15. Footage will show a mix of never-before-seen and archival content.
“Everyone thinks they know Jake and Logan Paul – they’re the original superstars of influencer culture and built their brand on being unfiltered. But PAUL AMERICAN goes deeper,” said Nina Rosenstein, Executive Vice President of HBO Programming. “This show uncovers a side of their relationships we’ve never seen, as brothers, sons, partners, as well as Logan’s transition into fatherhood. It’s a raw and unexpected look into their world.”
Initially rising to fame on social media, both Logan and Jake have since expanded their brands to the sports world as well, with Jake venturing into professional boxing. Logan did the same while also joining professional wrestling as a WWE Superstar. In WWE, Logan has notably won the United States Championship; he’s challenged for a world title on multiple occasions as well.
In addition to “Paul American,” MAX is a home to All Elite Wrestling’s weekly shows, “AEW Dynamite” and “AEW Collision,” which simulcast on the streaming platform as well as TBS and TNT, respectively. AEW and WWE have been rival companies since the former’s launching in 2019.
Logan Paul, the controversial YouTuber turned WWE star, is set to star in his own reality show on the same streaming service that airs rival wrestling promotion AEW.
The news comes as a surprise to many fans, as Paul has been a polarizing figure in the wrestling world since his debut in WWE earlier this year. However, it seems that the streaming service is willing to take a chance on the social media star and capitalize on his popularity.
The show is said to follow Paul’s life both inside and outside the wrestling ring, giving fans a behind-the-scenes look at the man behind the persona. It will also feature appearances from other WWE superstars, as well as some surprise guests from the world of entertainment.
While some fans are excited to see more of Paul, others are skeptical about the show and how it will affect his wrestling career. Only time will tell if this venture will be a success for the controversial star.
Stay tuned for more updates on Logan Paul’s reality show and how it will impact the wrestling world.
While WWE has announced where many of their major shows during WrestleMania 41 week will be taking place, there has been no announcement on where the Hall of Fame ceremony will be held.
According to a report from Pwinsider Elite, a decision on where and when the Hall of Fame ceremony will be taking place is still being finalized.
WWE can air the Hall of Fame ceremony following the WWE SmackDown broadcast as they’ve done in the past or on Sunday afternoon or Monday following RAW. They could also incorporate the Hall of Fame ceremony into ‘The World’ event at the Las Vegas Convention Center.
As of this writing, the location currently remains unknown and is being discussed internally.
Pwinsider Elite is also reporting that Rhyno has been spotted at the hotel that the WWE Superstars and staff are staying at in Indianapolis, IN. He was reportedly seen being greeted by Talent Relations staff. He was then “quickly whisked away to a more private area” before more people spotted him.
Rhyno finished up with TNA Wrestling last month and is currently a free agent.
There has been speculation surrounding the location of the 2025 WWE Hall of Fame ceremony, as the organization has yet to make a decision on where the event will be held. With past ceremonies taking place in various cities across the United States, fans are eagerly awaiting news of the chosen venue.
In other news, an ECW legend was recently spotted at WWE’s hotel in Indianapolis, sparking rumors of a possible appearance or collaboration with the wrestling powerhouse. The presence of the legendary wrestler has fans buzzing with excitement and anticipation for what could be in store for the future of WWE.
Stay tuned for updates on the WWE Hall of Fame ceremony location and any potential collaborations with ECW legends as more information becomes available.

After Stratton beat her former ally Nia Jax to become the new champion, Stratton told the world that she wasn’t some dumb blonde. Instead, Stratton revealed that she used Jax to gain her trust and when the opportunity came, Stratton cashed in Money in the Bank on Jax to become the WWE Women’s Champion for the first time in her WWE career that started just three years earlier.
As a young woman who is 25 years old, Stratton is very popular with WWE fans who love shouting “Tiffy Time” at shows. Stratton also reminds some people of popular singer Sabrina Carpenter, who has hits like “Please, Please, Please” and “Espresso.”
When Stratton was asked by Denise Salcedo about comparisons to Carpenter, Stratton embraced it and said that Carpenter inspired her.
“I love it. She’s my inspo. She’s my inspiration. I will come out and say that. I think she’s so cute and I wish I could sing. Maybe one day she’ll come sing my entrance music.”
When Denise suggested that maybe Sabrina will watch Tiffany in WWE like Vanessa Hudgens recently, Stratton said: “I really hope that happens.”
Tiffany Stratton Could Face Tough WWE Opponent At WrestleMania
Since Tiffany Stratton is holding the WWE Women’s Championship, she has a target on her back going into WrestleMania 41 season. It’s a possibility that the Women’s Royal Rumble winner may choose to face Stratton at WrestleMania. If not then Stratton will likely have to deal with the Women’s Elimination Chamber match winner.
A rumored match for WrestleMania 41 could see Tiffany Stratton defending the WWE Women’s Title against 14-time Women’s Champion Charlotte Flair, who is returning after more than a year out of action at the Royal Rumble. Stratton has said in past interviews that she was inspired to join WWE after watching Charlotte matches.
While Stratton could have to deal with Charlotte Flair in the future, she also has to deal with her former friend Nia Jax, who brutally attacked Stratton on the last SmackDown before the Royal Rumble.
WWE’s newest recruit, Tiffany Stratton, has been making waves in the wrestling world with her incredible talent and charisma. However, fans have been quick to draw comparisons between the rising star and popular singer, Taylor Swift.
In a recent interview with TJR Wrestling, Tiffany Stratton opened up about being compared to the Grammy-winning artist. “It’s definitely flattering to be compared to someone as successful and talented as Taylor Swift,” she said. “But at the end of the day, I’m here to make a name for myself in the wrestling world and show what I’m capable of in the ring.”
Despite the comparisons, Tiffany remains focused on her wrestling career and proving herself as a force to be reckoned with in the WWE. With her determination and drive, it’s clear that she has a bright future ahead of her in the world of professional wrestling.
Fans can catch Tiffany Stratton in action on WWE programming, where she continues to showcase her skills and leave a lasting impression on audiences around the world. Stay tuned for more exciting updates from this rising star in the world of professional wrestling.

WWE Women’s Tag Team Champion Bianca Belair appeared on the Battleground podcast to discuss several topics, including how the WWE Women’s Intercontinental and United States Championships are giving more opportunities to the division.
Belair said, “I see it affecting the women’s division in such a positive way. Right now, our roster is the best it’s ever been. It’s the most stacked it’s ever been. People say, ‘What do women need to do to get more opportunities?’ We don’t need to do anything, we just need more opportunities because every time we step in, we step up and we show out when we get those opportunities. So adding these two new titles, it gives so much more room and opportunity for women to showcase themselves, and that’s all we want to do. We don’t want these opportunities just because we’re women. We don’t want these spots just because we’re women. We want them because we can sell tickets, we want them because we can put the numbers, and we want them because we can put on these five-star matches, and this is what these women are doing. It’s really giving opportunities too for women who may be new to the scene, and they’re trying to get themselves out there.”
On potentially fighting for the titles:
“I think that it’s amazing. I’ve been able to accomplish a lot in a very short amount of time, and I’ve been able to hold a lot of titles. Those two new titles, they’re very shiny and pretty, and those women that are holding those titles are amazing women. So, anyone that could take those titles from those women that hold those titles right now, that’s a huge accomplishment. But yeah, our roster’s just so stacked, so we’re getting more opportunities because we’re showing up, and we’re showing out.”

This year’s premium live event will emanate from the city of Indianapolis. It was in Philadelphia, though, that Big E remembers sharing an exhilarating moment with his former New Day brethren during the 2018 Men’s Royal Rumble match.
“The Rumble’s such a special event for so many different people. When I was cool with my old partners, we had a lot of fun,” Big E told “Indy Sports Daily.” “There was one Kofi save where we had a basket toss, he landed on a pile of pancakes. Woods was a cheerleader in grade school, and he taught me how to basket toss, so we basket tossed Kofi up in the air. That’s one of those things where if you mess it up live, it’s like ‘Alright, it’s done,’ but to be able to be a part of one of Kofi’s saves was really cool. That’s one of my fond memories.”
The spot in reference occurred moments after Jinder Mahal eliminated Woods and Big E from the competition. When Mahal tried to throw Kingston over the top rope as well, one of his feet touched the floor. The other was caught by Woods, then placed on top of a plate of pancakes introduced by Big E. From there, Mahal attempted to block Kingston from reentering the ring. To circumvent this, Woods and Big E subsequently launched Kingston over Mahal’s head like “a pogo stick,” as commentator Michael Cole described it.
Kingston’s return to action was brief, as Andrade eliminated him shortly thereafter. The former WWE Champion did manage to remove Mahal from the match within that same time frame, however.

WWE’s Big E recently took a trip down memory lane and shared a heartwarming story from his time as a member of the popular wrestling trio, The New Day. In a recent interview, Big E recalled a particularly special Royal Rumble moment that he shared with his former New Day teammates, Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods.
Big E reminisced about the 2019 Royal Rumble, where all three members of The New Day entered the match together. The trio’s entrance was met with thunderous applause from the crowd, who showed their unwavering support for the beloved group. Big E described the moment as “surreal” and “magical,” as he and his teammates stood side by side in the ring, ready to take on whatever challenges came their way.
The bond between Big E, Kofi, and Xavier was evident in that moment, as they worked together seamlessly to outwit their opponents and put on a show-stopping performance for the fans. Big E expressed his gratitude for the experience, stating that it was a memory he would always hold dear.
As The New Day has since disbanded and each member has gone on to pursue solo careers in WWE, this Royal Rumble moment serves as a reminder of the incredible chemistry and camaraderie that the trio shared during their time together. Fans of The New Day can look back on this fond memory with a smile, knowing that the bond between Big E, Kofi, and Xavier will always be unbreakable.

WWE star Asuka expressed she has been “feeling in danger” recently when it comes to interactions with fans.
The four-time women’s world champion in WWE sent out a series of posts to her official X account on Wednesday, expressing distress and frustration about fans’ interactions with her and their desire for a romantic relationship — enough so that she contacted law enforcement about it.
“I’ve been feeling in danger recently,” Asuka wrote. “I’ve already consulted the police. At this rate, even if fans approach me at the airport or in the city, I will feel the possibility that something might happen, and it will scare me, making me unable to respond.”
WWE star Asuka WWE
It’s unclear if a specific interaction sparked Asuka’s fear and concern.
A portion of wrestling fans have become known for hounding performers in bunches at airports, hotels and other public places for them to sign items — often turning around and selling the memorabilia on the internet for profit.
The Japanese star, who is very private about her life outside the ring, also made it clear to fans in her posts that she will “absolutely reject any romantic or personal approaches toward me.”
“Please don’t have romantic feelings for me,” Asuka wrote. “It’s meaningless — 100% pointless.”
She added: “There is absolutely no possibility for others to interfere in my private life.”
WWe star Asuka offered a warning to fans from her X account on Wednesday. Asuka/X
Asuka, 43, who has been with WWE since 2015, remains the longest-reigning NXT women’s champion, a four-time Women’s tag team champion, and has won the Royal Rumble and Money in the Bank.
Her fear of the worst certainly have some merit.
In 2020, WWE star Sonya Deville dealt with a scary incident in which obsessed fan Phillip Thomas drove from his home in South Carolina to the Tampa area with the intent to kidnap Deville while carrying a knife, zip ties, duct tape and mace — even breaking into her home.
Asuka has been off WWE television and out of action since getting injured in May 2024 and having knee surgery shortly after.
Asuka is currently a member of the Damage CTL faction, which is also dealing with injuries to Kairi Sane and Dakota Kai.
It remains unclear if and when Asuka could return to the ring, though Fightful Select reported WWE has made creative pitches around her.
WWE’s Asuka, the fierce and talented wrestler, recently took to social media to express her concerns about feeling in danger due to unwanted romantic advances from fans. Asuka, known for her incredible skills in the ring, made it clear that she values her privacy and personal space.
In a series of tweets, Asuka warned her fans to respect her boundaries and not cross the line by making inappropriate advances. She emphasized that she should not have to feel unsafe or uncomfortable while interacting with her fans, and that she deserves to be treated with respect.
It is important for fans to remember that wrestlers, like all public figures, are entitled to their personal space and boundaries. Asuka’s plea for respect should serve as a reminder to always approach interactions with celebrities with respect and consideration.
Let’s show our support for Asuka by respecting her wishes and treating her with the dignity and respect she deserves. Let’s continue to cheer her on in the ring and show our appreciation for her talent and hard work.

WWE legend Bully Ray has discussed the favor that CM Punk is owed by Paul Heyman and how that could potentially come into effect in the next few months. With Royal Rumble around the corner, several WWE stars have declared their entry into the Rumble match, one of whom is Punk, who has vowed to win the match and fulfill his long-awaited dream of main-eventing WrestleMania.
Ray, in a recent edition of “Busted Open,” suggested a potential storyline for the favor that Heyman owes Punk, which could happen if Punk doesn’t win the men’s Royal Rumble match or the Elimination Chamber match. He proposed a story in which Roman Reigns wins the match, but Punk asks Heyman to remove Reigns from the spot in his favor.
“Could you imagine if Roman wins the Rumble, and Roman is going to do exactly what he said and face Cody, and Punk goes to Paul [Heyman] and says, ‘I need you to talk Roman Reigns out of his match and give it to me.’ Holy sh*t. You want to talk about intriguing. Paul Heyman caught between Roman Reigns and CM Punk right before WrestleMania, Roman wins the match. Could you imagine the look on Paul’s face?” said Bully. “You kind of play it up. It’s like the Godfather asking his favor back in return.”
Ray believes that Punk asking Heyman to get him into a WrestleMania main event match ahead of Reigns would get boos from the audience, despite how loved he is right now.
The WWE Hall of Famer added that if Punk wins the Royal Rumble match, the storyline of Heyman owing him a favor would be “null and void,” unless it continues until SummerSlam later this year. He thinks that the favor story would not be needed if “The Second City Saint” wins either the Rumble match or Elimination Chamber.
If you use any of the quotes in this article, please credit “Busted Open” with a h/t to Wrestling Inc. for the transcription.
Bully Ray, former WWE superstar and current wrestling analyst, recently discussed the possibilities for the favor that Paul Heyman owes WWE’s CM Punk on his podcast. With Punk’s return to WWE and Heyman’s history of being a master manipulator, there are endless scenarios that could play out.
One possibility is that Heyman could use his influence to book Punk in high-profile matches and help him secure championship opportunities. This could lead to Punk becoming a dominant force in WWE once again, thanks to Heyman’s connections and resources.
Another scenario could involve Heyman assisting Punk in settling old scores with past rivals or helping him form new alliances within the company. Heyman’s ability to strategize and manipulate could prove invaluable in Punk’s quest for success.
Additionally, Heyman could offer Punk advice and guidance on navigating the backstage politics of WWE, ensuring that Punk is able to maintain his momentum and avoid any potential roadblocks.
Overall, the favor that Heyman owes Punk could open up a world of possibilities for the former WWE champion. With Heyman’s expertise and connections at his disposal, Punk’s return to WWE could be even more impactful than fans ever imagined.
WWE’s 2025 edition of the Royal Rumble on February 1 has many, many interesting stories it could weave, especially in the men’s match at the very top of the card.
Even casual fans know the big ones worth a mention: Possible huge returns. John Cena’s retirement tour. Bloodline shenanigans. Seth Rollins’ hatred for CM Punk. Everyone and anyone who wants a shot at Cody Rhodes. Even the specter of the Rock hangs in the background.
But the most important story of all for WWE to tell? Punk and his grip on Roman Reigns.
Grip, because Punk cut a deal with Paul Heyman behind Reigns’ back before the Survivor Series “WarGames” match and assisted the Tribal Chief—who now owes the Best in the World a “favor.”
Fast foward to just a few weeks out from the rumble and, while everyone on the planet seems stuck on Punk’s (hilarious) comments about Hulk Hogan, there’s a little tidbit in his ranting that refers to the favor Reigns owes him.
That “favor” is by far the biggest wild card in the rumble, and it’s getting a mention now, even subtly, for a good reason. Because on paper, it seems super obvious—Punk will call it in during the men’s rumble match, requiring Reigns to help him clear the ring and win the whole thing.
Fans can see where this hypothetical is going given what they know about both men, of course. Reigns might help at first, especially if Heyman is on the outside, convincing him to do so. After all, an agreement is an agreement, and Reigns wouldn’t be where he’s at in the ongoing Bloodline saga right now had Punk not helped at Survivor Series.
But the help isn’t likely to last.
At some point, one has to imagine that Punk and Reigns would indeed clear most of the entrants from the ring. But that’s when the realization will hit the Tribal Chief that he’s oh-so-close to another WrestleMania main event and, perhaps more importantly, another shot at Rhodes and everything he lost when his historic title reign ended one year ago.
Not that Punk wouldn’t foresee this and be ready, leading to a collapse of the alliance in real-time and some third party swooping in and eliminating them both. If one had to guess, that’s an opportunistic Cena stealing the rumble win and the right to go on and challenge Rhodes to really get the retirement party started.
One smooth storytelling swoop like that and ‘Mania is set about as perfect as it could be, provided Rock doesn’t fly back in at the last second and ruin the storytelling again.
In this scenario, Punk gets peeved that Reigns didn’t make good on the favor and cost him a ‘Mania main event. Reigns would be mad at the latter, too, while also justifiably mad that he was put in this position in the first place without his consent by Heyman, ever the schemer. And Heyman, of course, would be stuck in the middle, smack between his past and present.
WWE has thrown down several hints at a Punk vs. Reigns ‘Mania match for good reason, so this is one solid way to get things there. The pops and ratings the two generate together almost comically dwarf anything else the company has on offer right now. The match wouldn’t need a title at stake, but it wouldn’t be all that shocking to see Gunther lose his to one of the two before ‘Mania, either.
Furthering this notion is the fact WWE wasted (and that’s the right word, the show was lukewarm and corporate-filled weirdness at best) what should have been a ‘Mania Night 1 main event between Punk and Rollins on Raw’s Netflix debut.
Granted, WWE could revert to Vinceish booking habits and actually have one of Punk or Reigns win the whole rumble at the cost of the other, weaving their way to a triple-threat main event involving Rhodes, too.
More appealing, though, is Cena getting the Rhodes match while Punk and Reigns headline the other night in a blood feud that now slots as the best long-running story going in a narrative-focused WWE.
Of the many stories the royal rumble needs to tell, this is by far the most important right now. WWE has made a habit of missing out on dream ‘Mania main events over the years (Sting-‘Taker, Rock-Reigns, etc. etc.) and can’t let Reigns vs. Punk be another.
Right now, there’s nothing more compelling in pro wrestling. With a device like the Royal Rumble and ‘Mania now split into two nights, meaning two main event chances, there’s no excuse to put any other story above the simmering drama between Reigns and Punk.
The Men’s Royal Rumble is one of WWE’s most anticipated events of the year, and in 2025, there is one story that stands out as the most important to tell during the match.
As the rumble unfolds, all eyes will be on the return of former WWE Champion and fan favorite, Daniel Bryan. After a brief hiatus, Bryan has made his comeback to the ring, and the Royal Rumble presents the perfect opportunity for him to make a statement and show that he is still a force to be reckoned with.
With the stakes higher than ever, Bryan will have to prove himself against a stacked lineup of opponents, including current champion Roman Reigns, up-and-coming stars like Ricochet and Montez Ford, and returning legends like Edge and John Cena.
As the clock counts down to his entrance, the anticipation will be palpable, and fans around the world will be on the edge of their seats, waiting to see if Bryan can outlast the competition and secure a spot in the main event of WrestleMania.
With so much on the line, the story of Daniel Bryan’s journey back to the top is sure to be the most talked-about and important narrative of the Men’s Royal Rumble in 2025. Stay tuned for all the news, scores, highlights, stats, and rumors as the action unfolds.

Tommy Dreamer believes that Jey Uso is set to deliver big things as a singles competitor for WWE. Uso is set to challenge Gunther for the World Heavyweight Championship at Saturday Night’s Main Event this weekend, and Dreamer weighed in on his move from tag competitor to singles star on Busted Open Radio. You can see some highlights below (h/t to Wrestling Inc):
On Uso’s move into singles competition: “We know he’s entertaining. We know he’s a great worker. We’ve grew up watching the Usos. We watched Jey rise up on his own and become ‘Main Event’ Jey Uso. And his promo [against GUNTHER on Raw] afterwards is, like, cool, because at the end of the day, who’s he got? He’s got himself.”
On Uso’s potential: “You know, he went away from The Bloodline. He took a big risk. WWE has invested a lot in him, and that investment is paying off.”
Tommy Dreamer, a wrestling veteran and former WWE Superstar, recently commented on WWE’s investment in Jey Uso and how it is paying off in a big way.
In a recent interview, Dreamer praised Jey Uso’s work in WWE and how the company’s decision to invest in him as a singles competitor has been a wise one. Dreamer noted that Jey Uso has been able to showcase his talent and prove himself as a top performer in the company.
Dreamer also highlighted the success of Jey Uso’s storyline with Roman Reigns, which has been a major focal point on WWE programming in recent months. The feud between the two cousins has been one of the most compelling and engaging storylines in wrestling, and has helped elevate both performers to new heights.
Overall, Tommy Dreamer believes that WWE’s investment in Jey Uso has been a smart move, and that it is paying off in terms of delivering quality content and engaging storytelling for fans. Jey Uso’s rise as a singles star has been a standout success story in WWE, and it will be exciting to see where his career goes from here.
