Rob Gronkowski Calls out WWE's Logan Paul Amid Tom Brady Trash Talk in Video, 'I'll Whoop His Ass'

Mike ChiariMar 10, 2026

Legendary former New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Rob Gronkowski laid down a challenge to WWE Superstar Logan Paul on Tuesday ahead of the March 21 Fanatics Flag Football Classic.

During an appearance on Up & Adams, Gronk took issue with some of Paul's recent actions and comments, and he expressed a willingness to scrap with Paul on the field:

"If Logan Paul wants a piece of me, I'm down to throw it down on the field, and even throw my fists," Gronkowski said. "Just go at it. All-out brawl on the football field. I don't care it's flag football and it's a family event. I will fight him on the field if he wants to fight me right there and then in the flag football game."

Gronk also called Paul out for backing out of his recent challenge to box a current or former NFL player with both him and the player putting up $1 million.

This week, Paul wrote in a post on X that his bosses from WWE called and told him he could not box an NFL player, meaning a potential bout against former NFL running back Le'Veon Bell is off:

Additionally, Kay Adams played a clip from Paul's Impaulsive podcast in which he said he beat up all of Gronkowski's brothers back-to-back in a boxing ring, only for Gronk himself to not get involved.

Gronkowski said he didn't participate because he was playing in the NFL at the time, but he no longer has that responsibility holding him back.

Paul's NFL boxing challenge was laid down after a recent disagreement with former Patriots and Bucs quarterback Tom Brady, who is also participating in the Fanatics Flag Football Classic.

On an episode of Impaulsive (h/t Boston.com's Khari A. Thompson), Brady expressed his belief that NFL players are better athletes than pro wrestlers, saying, "It's cute. I love WWE. It's very cute. But, honestly, this is like real football, real competition."

Paul set out to prove that wrestlers can hang with football players by attempting to box someone from the NFL, but it doesn't seem as though that is going to come to fruition.

He may be forced into an impromptu skirmish with Gronk, though, when both of them take the field for the Fanatics Flag Football Classic at BMO Stadium in Los Angeles on March 21.
