A WWE Superstar, who has a controversial past, made a special request to Chief Content Officer Triple H.
The Japanese wrestling fans are excited as WWE returns to the country for the highly anticipated SuperShow Japan events on October 17 and 18, 2025. These will be the first shows in Japan since their successful summer tour last year in July. As anticipation builds for these events, one particular wrestler has expressed strong interest in being included in the tour.
On his IMPAULSIVE podcast, Logan Paul made his intentions clear about WWE’s upcoming Japan tour. He revealed that he approached Triple H directly about his appearance on the show.

The timing for this request is particularly notable, as in the same podcast, Paul mentioned that he would be taking time off in the coming weeks due to his upcoming marriage to Nina Agdal. Despite this, being a part of the Japan tour appears to be a priority for Paul, as he claims he’s not banned from visiting the country.
WWE Women’s Champion Tiffany Stratton was the guest in that episode and Paul asked her about the heated exchange with Charlotte Flair on SmackDown.
Logan Paul’s Controversial Japan Trip That Changed Everything
Paul’s relationship with Japan took a devastating turn in December 2017 when he uploaded one of the most controversial videos in YouTube history. Paul, along with his crew, went into Japan’s Aokigahara forest, infamously known as the “suicide forest” due to its reputation as a location where people frequently take their own lives.
The video showed Paul discovering the body of a man who had apparently died by suicide, hanging from a tree. Rather than stopping the filming, he continued recording, shot several close-ups while only blurring the person’s face.
Things worsened when Paul was heard laughing and making inappropriate comments in the video. Following the immense backlash, Paul removed the video from his account. The whole Japan trip was controversial for Paul because of his disrespectful behavior, which resulted in YouTube removing Paul from its Google Preferred advertising program. In 2018, Logan Paul eventually donated $1 million to suicide prevention agencies to make amends.
