John Cena is a fan of Logan Paul’s work.
At WrestleMania 41 Sunday, both men were in action and were victorious thanks to their heelish ways. Cena was of course successful in making history and becoming 17 time WWE Champion in his controversial match against Cody Rhodes while Paul defeated AJ Styles in a match that unfortunately failed to live up to expectations. However, despite their matches receiving a cold reaction from fans, Cena gave props to the YouTube wrestler.
During an episode of ImPaulsive, the former United States Champion revealed that the 17 time Champion pointed him out backstage and tipped his cap to his heel work in the match.
“Later in the day after my match (John Cena) was walking by, before he became the GOAT statistically, he pointed at me and said ‘Now that’s how a bad guy works.’
“I was all sweaty, it was right after my match. He looked me in the eye and pointed at me and said ‘Now that’s how a bad guy works.’”

Logan Paul Defends WWE Schedule Amid Criticism
The YouTuber is never far from criticism, and entering the wrestling world has been no different. Despite his athletic abilities and decent match performances, he only ever shows up at WWE’s biggest shows, which many fans blast him for. However, in classic Logan Paul fashion he revelled in his lucrative position while stating he was always available whenever Triple H needs him.
“I’m available. I’m here. I signed up to be a WWE superstar. When Triple H calls me, I answer the call. Whoever he wants to put against me goes from professional wrestler to victim. It’s been that way for the past year and I’m in my fourth year of wrestling in WWE, as an outsider, by the way, and I’m 3-1. The person I lost to is Seth Rollins, who is one of the best in the business. I put on five star matches every single time. Whoever they want to put me against, I’ll rise to the challenge and I’ll not only rise to the challenge, I’ll become the challenge.”
