Logan Paul has said he would be open to returning to Japan if WWE hosts an event there, despite the backlash he still receives from fans.
Paul, who hasn’t been to Japan since his highly controversial 2017 incident involving the filming of a suicide victim in Aokigahara forest, addressed the topic on a recent episode of his “Impaulsive” podcast. When asked whether he’d consider going back, he acknowledged the “hate” he continues to face but indicated he’s not opposed to the idea if it’s for a WWE show.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On a possible return to Japan: “I have to do it the right way. I’d like to be invited. Like, maybe if WWE does an event there.”
On getting hate from WWE fans: “I’m gonna say it. You know it’s true. Logan Paul hate is forced. In the WWE, Logan Paul hate is forced. Say whatever the f*ck you want about me that’s negative. About my ability to wrestle, about my ability on the mic. Even about my ability to become champion and beat Jey Uso. It’s not true. You’re lying to yourself.”
