Tom Brady continues to take shots at ‘cute and scripted’ WWE
NFL legend Tom Brady continues to take shots at WWE ahead of a rumored WrestleMania appearance.
Brady and WWE wrestler Logan Paul are both involved with the Fanatics Flag Football event that’s taking place this weekend. To help promote the game, Brady and Paul have gone back and forth about WWE being scripted and whether wrestlers are as good of athletes as football players.
That continued today with Sports Illustrated asking Brady how many WWE wrestlers it would take to sack him.

“All their stuff is so cute and scripted and they know what’s going on. In a football game, you don’t know it, so they wouldn’t even get near me,” Brady responded. “Plus, if I had a good offensive line, they’d punch those guys right in the throat and they’d be probably crying. You know, there’s no fake BS we do in American football. So for those guys, it’d be a whole different story for them.”
WWE star Charlotte Flair responded after the clip was posted, calling out Brady for needing an offensive line to protect him.
A lot of words to say “if I had five guys to protect me, I might be ok” 🫶🏻 https://t.co/g0jvEkDgtW

There has been no confirmation that Brady will be involved with WrestleMania 42, but WrestleVotes reported earlier this month that WWE has discussed the possibility with him and has worked on Brady-themed speciality merchandise. Brady is a part-owner of the Las Vegas Raiders, who play their home games at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
Allegiant Stadium hosted WrestleMania 41 last year and will also be the venue for WrestleMania 42. The two-night event is taking place on Saturday, April 18 and Sunday, April 19.
The Fanatics Flag Football event was initially schedule to be held in Saudi Arabia but has been moved to Los Angeles. It will air on Fox this Saturday (March 21) at 4 p.m. Eastern time.
