“Skipping leg day again I see.”
– Randy Orton, WWE Superstar
The roast didn’t go unnoticed by Paul, who shared Orton’s comment and responded with apparent disbelief on his Instagram story. Not one to back down, Paul fired back in good spirits by posting another gym selfie, this time highlighting his leg muscles on X/Twitter, and included the caption:
“Randy Orton said I skip leg day.”
– Logan Paul, WWE United States Champion
The exchange drew reactions from fans and underscored the camaraderie among WWE talent, even when it plays out across social media platforms.
Paul and Vision Brothers Prepare for WWE RAW in Germany

John Bradshaw Layfield Applauds Logan Paul’s Wrestling Future
In a recent interview with VideoGamer, WWE Hall of Famer John Bradshaw Layfield (JBL) weighed in on Logan Paul’s presence in the wrestling world, especially after Paul’s high ranking in the WWE 2K25 video game. JBL had high praise for Paul:
“I love Logan Paul; I think he’s fantastic,”
– John Bradshaw Layfield, WWE Hall of Famer
He elaborated on Paul’s potential, openly supporting the idea that Paul could eventually hold the top WWE title:
“I think the guy’s a future world champion. And I think he’s just doing an incredible job. I thought his brother Jake Paul ran into a windmill with Anthony Joshua. I think it’s to be expected, but the fact that he made basically a hundred million dollars, those guys are doing everything right. I’ve got a lot of respect for Logan Paul. I’ve met him in person a few times. Very nice, respectful guy. I’m a big fan of his. I don’t know if he should be rated higher than me, though!”
– John Bradshaw Layfield, WWE Hall of Famer
