World Wrestling Entertainment is reportedly in negotiations with seven-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady, according to longtime professional wrestling insider Dave Meltzer.
Brady and Paul have been playing up a growing feud that spilled over onto the football field last Saturday at the Fanatics Flag Football Classic. The legendary quarterback threw a football at Paul after a play, prompting the YouTuber/WWE superstar to get in his face.
Leading up to the game, there had been an ongoing exchange of trash talk between Brady and members of the WWE roster. Paul even went as far as saying that Brady is "not an athlete." Brady acknowledged Paul was a "good athlete," but he called WWE "very cute."
"From what I have been told, they are in negotiations with Tom Brady, but there's absolutely not a deal, at this point, for Tom Brady," Meltzer said on Sunday, via F4WOnline. "So it could happen. Obviously, Logan Paul and Tom Brady are working, I mean, everyone knows they're working the angle. I think people have seen that coming in. But there could be something in some form at Wrestlemania. It would not be a surprise.
"What they did in the football game was clearly to build it, just all of the talk, you know, Tom Brady cutting down pro wrestlers, and the wrestlers all responding. That is all storyline."
Brady is a partial owner of the Las Vegas Raiders, and Wrestlemania 42 is set to take place at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas on April 18 and April 19. So it would make sense for WWE to seek out doing an angle with the greatest quarterback in NFL history.
Rob Gronkowski, Brady's longtime teammate, has had multiple Wrestlemania moments, including nearly nine years ago, during the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal, when he shoulder tackled Jinder Mahal. He then went on to win the WWE 24/7 title at Wrestlemania 36.
Perhaps Brady will be the next former New England Patriots legend to get a Wrestlemania moment.
