AJ Styles: Logan Paul may be WWE’s best celebrity athlete ever

Posted: Sep 2nd 2026 By: Shounak

Logan Paul has been hailed as WWE’s best celebrity athlete by none other than AJ Styles himself.

Last year at WWE WrestleMania 41, Paul and Styles engaged in a heated rivalry. Their feud culminated at WWE WrestleMania 41, where Paul defeated Styles.

Now, recently speaking on WWE Retrospective, Styles opened up and praised Paul by calling him a hard worker as well as the promotion’s best celebrity athlete.

“Logan Paul’s an athlete, make no mistake about it. This guy does some incredible stuff. The first time I actually met him, I tried to give him a compliment and he didn’t know how to take it. So I was like, ‘Man, just take it and just say thank you.’ But then getting to know him, really good guy, really hard worker.

“I mean, constantly working, brain always thinking about something different. I was very impressed with his work ethic, not just in the ring, but in everything that he does. It’s a lot. He may have been our best. Listen, I’m stepping out, and I’m going to say this. He may have been the best celebrity athlete we’ve ever brought in.

The WWE Hall of Famer further compared Paul with The Miz and claimed that they both have a face that people just want to hit.

“Honestly, I had no idea how big he was. Not only is Logan a boxer, because he is, he can box. He’s also a really good collegiate wrestler, he can wrestle. A lot of people don’t know that. So he can handle himself,” Styles finished.

Apart from his run as a WWE wrestler, Paul is also known for his YouTube vlogging as well as his run as a celebrity boxer.
