Further, he explained why did he want to defend his title against The Rock, recalling his past history with the Hollywood star. “It has to be because we have so much history. We go way back and he’s larger than life man. I like taking on those types of personalities. So it has to be Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson at WrestleMania.”
Logan Paul and The Rock have had a severed relationship since 2017. However, The Brahma Bull is one of the heroes he admires the most, but after an incident in 2017, the two men didn’t have the same relationship as before.

WWE News: Logan Paul explains his sore relationship with The Rock
Logan Paul and The Rock had a good relationship before and The Brahma Bull also featured in some of his videos. However, in 2017, the social media star posted a YouTube video where he visited the infamous Aokigahara “suicide forest” in Japan and filmed a suicide victim. This attracted immense negative comments from the fans and also made his relationship with his hero go worse.
While speaking on the True Geordie podcast, he mentioned the consequences and his relationship with The Rock.
“This was one of the saddest moments of my life, what I’m about to say. After Japan happened, obviously, found myself in a hole, rightfully so, that I had never been in before. Extremely low, mentally, and I got a call from my publicist who also repped Dwayne and she’s like, ‘Dwayne has asked that you remove every picture and video that you’ve done with him. Maybe in the future the relationship can be reconciled, but for now, he basically wants nothing to do with you.’ I also understood, I get it. I made a grotesque error and he has had things in his life that a lot of people, that incident, affected him in a personal way. I understood it and that was the other part.” [H/T Fightful]
Currently, there are rumors The Rock would return to WWE to face Roman Reigns. However, if Logan Paul wins the Undisputed Title will he get a chance to face The Rock? Tell us in the comments.
