Jake Paul says he is 'banned' from signing with the WWE, preventing him from joining his brother, Logan Paul.
Jake has carved out a career in professional boxing, having made his name as a YouTuber.
He's taken out several UFC legends, including Anderson Silva and Nate Diaz, and beat ex-world champion boxer Julio Cesar Chavez Jr., who was subsequently arrested, in his last outing to improve his record to 12-1.
Logan, on the other hand, has dabbled in boxing, notably facing former pound-for-pound king Floyd Mayweather and MMA fighter Dillon Danis.

But he's found his home in the WWE, becoming one of the best-performing stars in the wrestling promotion.
Could we see the brothers team up in the WWE?
According to Jake, it's not a possibility because he is 'banned' from the WWE.
"I’m actually banned from the WWE," said the 28-year-old in a fan Q&A on his brother's YouTube channel.

'The Problem Child' claims he is barred from competing for the wrestling leaders, but the WWE superstar insists that is not the case - explaining how he has made an enemy out of UFC CEO Dana White.
Logan argued: "That’s not true! No, it’s not. You’ve upset some of the people involved in the company because you’ve made an enemy out of Dana White... you have a diss track on him buddy!"
As Logan mentioned, Jake released a diss track in 2022 that took aim at White as well as Conor McGregor.

The 30-year-old also referenced the UFC teaming up with the WWE to form TKO Group but insists his younger brother could still appear in the WWE despite his beef with White.
“Dana is now part of the TKO group because the TKO group now owns the UFC and WWE," he added. "I think there is a little bit of static, but it's nothing we can’t fix."
Jake said he'd be 'down' to join his brother in the WWE tag team division if he was given the green light.

White doesn't hold any creative control over the WWE - that's Triple H's job, but the Paul brothers would likely need the UFC boss' blessings considering the cross-promotion between the UFC and the WWE since the merger of the two companies.
