Following his win over Mike Tyson last week, the spotlight is as bright as ever on Jake Paul. That is why WWE Hall-of-Famer Bubba Ray Dudley likely offered up a wild match idea for “El Gallo” at WrestleMania 41.
Hate him or love him, there is no denying that Jake Paul is good at what he does. Since his days as a popular YouTuber, the 27-year-old understands how to go viral and promote his projects to a mass audience. And his match with Mike Tyson on Friday was his masterpiece.

Despite having no divisional relevancy, and one of the participants of the main event being 58 years old, last week’s card was a huge hit on Netflix. As many as 65 million people tuned in for the headliner. And the massive audience throughout the event led to streaming issues for Netflix subscribers.
Considering his increased notoriety, this seems like as good a time as any for Paul to finally have his first match in WWE. And Bubba Ray Dudley has a brilliant idea for who he should face.

Bubba Ray Dudley makes pitch for Jake Paul vs. Logan Paul match at WrestleMania 41
Logan. At WrestleMania. W/ Iron Mike in his corner. It’s Vegas…and the Pauls are $$ makin machines. Book it,” Dudley wrote in a post on X following the Paul vs. Tyson fight.
Paul’s older brother Logan has become a notable star in WWE. And the company is always looking for interesting bouts to put him in. A couple of years ago the brothers suggested a fight against each other isn’t out of the question. However, a match at WrestleMania would be a less damaging and more fun way to go forward with such a scenario.
Furthermore, adding Tyson — who has his own history at WrestleMania — would be a perfect wild card for such a unique matchup at the April event.
