NFL legend Rob Gronkowski fired back at WWE superstar and boxer Logan Paul with some fiery trash talk during a recent appearance on the Up & Adams show with Kay Adams.
Is it a work? Probably. Do we still want to see it? Definitely.
The four-time Super Bowl champion didn’t hold back, calling out Paul for reportedly backing out of a planned $1 million boxing match against former running back Le’Veon Bell. Paul walked away, suggesting the WWE didn’t want him risking injury.
Gronkowski dismissed Paul’s excuses as “the biggest crap of all time” and positioned himself as ready to step in.
“If Logan Paul wants a piece of me, we are both playing in the flag football game on March 21,” he said. “I’m down to throw on the field, and even throw my fists, go all out brawl on the flag football field.”
"If Logan Paul wants a piece of me, I'm down to throw it down on the field… I'll whoop his ass."

Gronk Vows to Whoop Logan Paul’s A**
The beef escalated when Gronkowski directly challenged Paul to settle things physically.
“I will fight him on the field if he wants to fight me,” Gronkowski said. “I’ll whoop his a–.”
It’s important to remember that, two things: 1) The people involved in the flag football nonsense are trying to sell the event with over-the-top trash talking. And 2) Gronkowski has some history in wrestling, so this is probably just more hype.
Brady has even indulged in the professional-wrestling level trash talk, calling Paul a “b****” and referring to the WWE as “cute.”
And that’s what escalated things.
“There’s a clip out there of him [Brady] calling me a bitch. … If any of the football players want to fight, we’ll see what happens,” Paul said in a social media post. “I would throttle Myles Garrett. It could be any name. Any football player, Myles Garrett, Puka Nakua, Tom Brady, Rob, Sam Darnold.”
“$1 million, come to the gym, put on boxing gloves, and let’s see how it goes. I will throw hands.”
