Logan Paul admits the WWE locker room has been talking about U.S. president Donald Trump possibly attending John Cena’s final match.
Washington, D.C is the location of Cena’s final match at Saturday Night’s Main Event. It was widely believed when the venue was picked that it was done in mind of the president attending.
It was originally believed that Cena’s hometown of Boston would be a frontrunner for the final matchup, but Washington got the nod.
YouTuber-turned-boxer-turned-WWE star Paul is all for president Trump making an appearance.
“We (people in the WWE) have talked about it,” Paul told Fox News. “I have no idea. It seems like something that could happen. I think it’d be awesome. But I don’t know how political the WWE wants to get, so I’m not sure.”
Trump, of course, has a rich history with WWE. He is a Hall of Famer and helped host WrestleMania 4 and 5 at Trump Plaza and he took part in WM23 in the Battle of Billionaires against Vince McMahon.
WWE has always kept a loose affiliation with Trump. Vince McMahon’s now estranged-wife Linda still works as part of his administration.
Back to Paul, he was one of the lucky few who managed to get a one-on-one match with Cena during his retirement year.
The battle went down in Paris and Cena came away with the W. Still, it’s a credit to Paul and his potential that Cena fought him among many, many options.
“I am disappointed that I did not come out victorious. He’s really good. I don’t know what to say. Like, halfway through the match, I was like, ‘Oh, this is like a different level of wrestler.’
“But yeah, I mean, it’s John Cena, so I got my match. I’ll see if I can try to convince him to come back for one more so I can beat him next time.
“But although he told me that he’s not going to do that, he’s not going to do that,” Paul confirmed.
