The men's Royal Rumble match of 2025 was filled with multiple shockers. The biggest shocker was definitely the victory of Jey Uso instead of the favourites like John Cena and CM Punk; who were the biggest favourites to win this year's Rumble match. Jey Uso was never considered a favourite and his victory will definitely go down as one of the biggest shocking Royal Rumble wins in history.
Another shocker of the match was internet megastar Logan Paul entering the Royal Rumble match as the entry no. 30 and, eliminating CM Punk and even surviving until the final 3. Paul is definitely a gifted talent who orchestrated some amazing matches and moments in his short wrestling career, but he is not much famous among the wrestling fans.
Shocking: Logan Paul Would Have Threatened To Quit WWE Over Possible Tussle With The Rock At Royal Rumble!
A large number of fans are not happy with this special treatment for Paul over and over which could be seen at Royal Rumble too. The fans still do not like the culture of a part time main event star; Paul is a concrete part timer who defended the WWE United States Championship only two times in his 273 day title reign.
Logan Paul is a former WWE United States Champion
Paul was already announced to be participating in the men's Royal Rumble match but there were also rumours that The Rock may enter as the 30th entrant in this year's Rumble match. He was even asked by a fan what he would do if The Rock would take his spot. To which he replied the following on his own YouTube channel;
Logan Paul entered men's Royal Rumble match of 2025 as entry no. 30
“If Dwayne Johnson comes and tries to take my 30 spot, straight up, I am going straight to the boss." Said the former WWE United States champion, “I’m calling Nick Khan and I’m saying: ‘Dude, I quit.’” Nick Khan is the president of WWE, just to be exact.
Such a statement is quite bold but it is not confirmed whether he told such things keeping the kayfabe in mind. Immediately some fans started making theories that there is a possibility of a huge Logan Paul vs The Rock match at WrestleMania 41. But if this is not kayfabe, the strength and influence of the "Prime" logo there is always present in the wrestling rings of WWE can be understood easily.
