Recent reports indicate that WWE is interested in working with Jake Paul, the brother of Logan Paul. The social media influencer turned boxer made headlines last weekend with his highly anticipated match against legendary boxer Mike Tyson.
On November 15, Netflix streamed the highly anticipated match between former world heavyweight champion Mike Tyson and Jake Paul. The event took place at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, with over 72,000 fans in attendance.
The boxing match not only attracted a massive crowd but also made a significant impact on the streaming platform. Fans eagerly watched the thrilling bout, but many experienced buffering and connectivity issues due to the overwhelming number of viewers. Netflix later revealed that 60 million people tuned in to watch the match.
After the massive success of the Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson fight, Jake appeared on his brother Logan Paul’s Impaulsive podcast. He shared that he hopes to join WWE as Logan’s manager. Coincidentally, recent reports reveal that WWE is eager to bring the social media influencer-turned-boxer into the promotion.
