“I\u2019m honestly p—ed. I wish I was there to back him up,” he said. “But I have one message for Tom. The Paul brothers are coming for you and revenge is sweet. Tom, keep your head on a swivel.”<\/p>\n

Brady and Logan Paul met on stage with New York Knicks star Karl-Anthony Towns coming in between them. The NFL legend then attempted to slap the WWE star before they were pulled apart before things could really escalate.<\/p>\n

Paul and Brady responded to the incident on X afterward.<\/p>\n

“This happened bc I was roasting Tom for beating him in flag football. And he tries to smack me ?? Horrible example for the kids,” Paul wrote on X. “Aura -100 + Blocked. With a torn tricep.”<\/p>\n

Brady called him a “dork.”<\/p>\n

“I tried America\u2026 will try again next time I see this nerd,” he added.<\/p>\n

Brady suggested in an interview on WWE star Cody Rhodes\u2019 podcast “What Do You Wanna Talk About?” that he would want to get involved in a match.<\/p>\n

“I need to get an invite. I’ve been waiting for (WWE president) Nick Khan to come up with some storyline for me to get in the mix,” Brady said Thursday. “I feel like I’m retired from football, and I have an opportunity to go out there and still showcase that I’m a little bit of an athlete.”<\/p>\n
