Brady lit the fuse months ago when he called Paul\u2019s\u00a0WWE\u00a0career \u201ccute\u201d during a podcast appearance, and Paul has been firing back ever since. Their feud nearly turned physical once already, when\u00a0Tom Brady and Logan Paul\u00a0almost threw hands\u00a0during a Fanatics Flag Football Classic game\u00a0back in March.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Brady beaned Paul with a football, Paul squared up, and only a wall of teammates kept it from boiling over. Weeks later,\u00a0Brady called Paul a name that made headlines\u00a0and pushed the beef into uglier territory.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thursday\u2019s slap at Fanatics Fest fits the pattern perfectly: two guys who clearly enjoy needling each other in front of a camera, right up until it looks like it might actually go too far.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-embed-twitter\">\n<div class=\"twitter-tweet twitter-tweet-rendered\"><iframe id=\"twitter-widget-2\" class=\"\" title=\"X Post\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/embed\/Tweet.html?creatorScreenName=totalprosports&amp;dnt=false&amp;embedId=twitter-widget-2&amp;features=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%3D%3D&amp;frame=false&amp;hideCard=false&amp;hideThread=false&amp;id=2078237047114883086&amp;lang=en&amp;origin=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.totalprosports.com%2Fnfl%2Ftom-brady-slaps-logan-paul-at-fanatics-fest-video%2F&amp;sessionId=4a695efd251d9dae4240618a4220578b620a084a&amp;siteScreenName=totalprosports&amp;theme=light&amp;widgetsVersion=6a3ad42b224df%3A1778106238597&amp;width=550px\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-tweet-id=\"2078237047114883086\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<h2 id=\"h-karl-anthony-towns-plays-peacemaker-between-tom-brady-and-logan-paul\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Karl-Anthony Towns Plays Peacemaker Between Tom Brady And Logan Paul<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1134\" src=\"https:\/\/thejoeroganpod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Karl-Anthony-Towns-2-768x422-1-300x165.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"165\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thejoeroganpod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Karl-Anthony-Towns-2-768x422-1-300x165.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thejoeroganpod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Karl-Anthony-Towns-2-768x422-1.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Karl-Anthony Towns (Image Credits: Imagn)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignfull has-no-content-width has-xs-padding-bottom\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div id=\"incontent-ad-4\" class=\"pw-incontent\" data-label=\"Advertisement\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Towns stands seven feet tall, and he towered over both men, looking like the only person on stage capable of stopping this. He got a hand on each of them and pushed them apart while the crowd roared.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Brady, for his part, has been talking openly this week about crossing over into pro wrestling. He said he is waiting on a call from WWE and that he would happily play a heel, joking that his\u00a0NFL\u00a0career already qualifies him for the role. That storyline gives this beef with Paul, WWE\u2019s biggest current crossover star, an obvious next chapter.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Wrestling voices have already weighed in on Brady\u2019s wrestling talk;\u00a0Paul Heyman fired back at Brady\u2019s original \u201ccute\u201d comment\u00a0months ago, and Thursday\u2019s slap will only add fuel to that fire. Fanatics Fest itself has become the year\u2019s biggest sports and pop-culture crossover event, drawing names like LeBron James and Serena Williams to the Javits Center, according to\u00a0Bloomberg\u2019s coverage of the 2026 event.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignfull has-no-content-width has-xs-padding-bottom\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div id=\"incontent-ad-5\" class=\"pw-incontent\" data-label=\"Advertisement\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nobody threw a real punch, and nothing here looks scripted enough to be a stunt. Brady and Paul have built an entire feud on moments exactly like this one, and each new clip only raises the stakes for whatever comes next. A real fight between these two still feels unlikely, but after Thursday, it is getting harder to rule out completely.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For now, Towns gets credit for keeping the peace, and fans get another wild clip to argue about all weekend.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tom Brady\u00a0and Logan Paul cannot seem to stay out of each other\u2019s way.
