Those crazy YouTubers, man.
Logan Paul, the social media megastar as he’s been called by WWE, has been doing his thing online lately. That’s included trying to get former NFL stars to fight him in a boxing or MMA bout, and apparently getting a taker in the form of former Pittsburgh Steelers great Le’Veon Bell:
10 oz gloves
No headgear
3 min rounds until someone quitsNext weekend
$1M bet (money in escrow)
No judges. You choose refereeDown for Boxing or MMA. Just lmk
Deal? Will have contract drawn up & sent https://t.co/WDdpadZton

Later, he came back with this:
Le’Veon Bell claims he’s down to fight me for $1M NEXT WEEKEND!! 10oz gloves, no headgear, 3 minute rounds until someone says “I quit!” or gets KO’d 🤪
I’m 99.9% sure I know how this will go but what do y’all think.
When does Le’Veon quit?

This is, of course, a load of silliness, and most saw it for exactly that. It was never going to happen, no matter how much grandstanding they were doing, and the other boot came down not that long ago when Paul claimed WWE put the kibosh on the whole thing.
Welp. The bosses called
Turns out I’m too valuable of a WWE Superstar to be fighting bums
I want to take this opportunity to congratulate @LeVeonBell and @BreidenFehoko for their 15 minutes of relevancy. Now back to being broke and retired
I’m going back to RAW every Monday…

Yeah, that sounds about right for how this was always going to go.
Paul made it clear some time ago that he was going to make WWE more of a full time gig and he’s actually make good on his word in that regard, appearing as a regular on Monday Night Raw. This also happens to be the biggest time of the year for the company, as it gears up for WrestleMania 42 next month in Las Vegas.
That’s obviously more important than a freak show fight.
It would have been something, though, huh?
