Paul appeared at Wrestlemania this past year teaming with The Miz against The Mysterios.  The Miz double-crossed Paul at the end of the match and it looks like the ‘digital influencer’ is looking for payback.

Payout Perspective:

The WWE also signed former Bellator MMA competitor Valerie Loureda this week.  The moves reflect the strategy of securing personalities with a high number of followers on social media. .

I should point out that according to those at TKO that the ESPN/MVPW boxing deal is a revenue sharing agreement similar to the original AEW/Turner deal in 2019 and not a full paying media rights deal which Top Rank had and wasn't renewed.
