Logan Paul’s potential as a future world champion in WWE has been backed by a respected voice in professional wrestling, WWE Hall of Famer JBL. The endorsement follows discussions about the rising prominence of Logan Paul on WWE’s RAW brand and his notable presence in WWE 2K25, making him a key figure to watch for fans and industry observers alike.
Hall of Famer JBL Weighs In on WWE 2K25 Rankings
During a recent interview with VideoGamer, JBL, renowned for his own celebrated wrestling career, reacted to being rated an 89 overall in the latest WWE 2K25 video game. Addressing the ratings with characteristic humor, JBL remarked:
“Well, is that an 89 right now or an 89 in my prime? It all depends on who’s rated 90,”
JBL said.
“I’ll have no problem unless I find out that somebody else is a 90 who I thought was terrible. But right now on the surface, 89 sounds good.”

This playful assessment reflected JBL’s competitive spirit and the importance wrestlers often place on their game rankings, which are closely watched by fans around the globe.
Logan Paul’s 90 Rating and Future Championship Aspirations
When informed that Logan Paul holds a 90 rating in WWE 2K25, slightly higher than his own, JBL responded with admiration rather than rivalry. Offering his candid thoughts on the RAW Superstar’s achievements, JBL shared:
“I love Logan Paul; I think he’s fantastic,”
JBL said.
“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!”
– JBL, WWE Hall of Famer
JBL’s praise highlights Logan Paul’s impact not only in the wrestling ring but also as a crossover star drawing attention from beyond traditional wrestling audiences, just as Jake Paul’s foray into boxing did with Anthony Joshua. JBL’s comments also touch on the impressive earnings and business savvy both brothers have demonstrated in their respective sports and entertainment pursuits.
What This Means for WWE’s Future
With established names like JBL recognizing Logan Paul’s talent and potential, the WWE landscape could see significant shifts in coming years. Logan’s ongoing performances on RAW are closely followed by fans, and such endorsements only add to the momentum of his career. If his current trajectory continues, it won’t be surprising to see him contend for—and perhaps capture—the title of world champion in WWE, validating JBL’s passionate support and adding another chapter to his already dynamic story.
