EC3 SAYING HE'S BEEN BLACKBALLED, AMERICAN GLADIATORS, BOXING LOGAN PAUL AND MORE

By Mike Johnson on 2026-03-14 10:00:00

Was the Logan Paul challenging a football player to box and then WWE stepping in deal just an online work to set up Logan Paul vs. Tom Brady at Wrestlemania?  After all, it started after Brady said Logan wrestling was "cute" which led to others responding?

I don't know if you are just putting pieces together that really have nothing to do with the other but you never know.  I wouldn't be shocked to find out Paul was just trolling online more than actually planning to get into legit boxing matches with no training during Wrestlemania season.  I was told on one of his streams he received a call from WWE, but again, having not seen or heard it, I can't state what the truth was behind it.

I saw EC3 saying he's been blackballed from major promotions.  Do you think that's the case?

No, my feeling is that if someone believes they can make money with EC3, they'll sign him and use him.   He's too talented, especially as a talker, to not at least be considered.  I wouldn't be shocked to find out he made the comments to get attention for himself, which isn't the worst strategy in a business based on conflict, strife and controversy.

Do you find it as annoying as I do that the revival of AMERICAN Gladiators was filmed in France?

No, and I think you need to turn off the computer and the cell phone and go for a nice, LONG walk outside.

Who do you think returns first - The Rock, Vince McMahon or Steve Austin?

My gut feeling would be Steve Austin, unless Vince McMahon wants to attend his daughter's Hall of Fame induction.

Any updates on the Greg Valentine or Mike Rotunda books?

The Rotunda book has been completed but since he has been dealing with health issues, there's been no official release plan.  We are told the Valentine book is written and pending final approval.
