Logan Paul Fires Back at John Cena After Brutal Dublin Showdown

Logan Paul isn’t backing down after getting verbally destroyed by John Cena in Dublin—and now he’s doubling down ahead of their showdown at Clash in Paris.

The chaos unfolded at WWE SmackDown on August 22, 2025, live from Dublin’s 3Arena. Fans were ecstatic to see John Cena, who was met with roaring chants before he could even speak. That celebration was quickly cut short when Logan Paul’s music hit, and the atmosphere shifted.

Paul walked straight into the lion’s den, mocked the crowd, and even referred to Ireland as England—earning instant heat. He then blasted Cena as “an actor who knows how to wrestle” and accused the WWE Universe of unfairly labeling him an outsider. The insults got personal when Paul referenced Cena’s nude Oscars appearance and longtime relationship with Nikki Bella, calling him a “corporate pawn” who only seeks attention.

Cena’s eventual response was scathing. He called Logan Paul “a parasite” and tore into him for treating WWE like a branding opportunity instead of a true calling. The crowd erupted in “parasite” chants before Cena dropped Paul with a thunderous Attitude Adjustment.

But The Maverick wasn’t finished. On August 23, Logan Paul took to Twitter and fired back at Cena with a fiery statement:

“I stand by every word I said last night. I’m the most real wrestler in the WWE, and that includes the professional pretender who will chug a bottle of PRIME on my podcast then disrespect it on TV for a cheap pop.”

He admitted that Cena was right about one thing—this is the most important match of his life.

“The pressure is on and I LOVE IT — that’s why Logan Paul VS. John Cena will be the greatest match of his retirement tour.”

With Clash in Paris looming, the war of words is only getting hotter. Logan Paul has made it clear he’s ready for the spotlight—now it’s time to see if he can back it up.

Do you think Logan Paul has what it takes to beat John Cena on his retirement tour? Or will Cena remind him who built the house he’s trying to live in? Sound off in the comments.
