Jake Paul, who recently signed with WWE, made his WWE debut at the Crown Jewel event in Riyadh earlier tonight. He appeared in the corner of his older brother, fellow YouTuber-turned-boxer Logan Paul. The older Paul brother faced Roman Reigns in the headlining matchup at the Crown Jewel event.

Taking to his official Instagram account, 'The Problem Child' posted a photo of himself and Brock Lesnar. Jake Paul attached a statement alongside the photo, wherein he suggested that he could compete in WWE as Lesnar's tag team partner. Paul wrote:

"Future tag team partner @wwe"

WWE on BT Sport's Twitter account put forth a tweet featuring the photo of Paul and Lesnar, adding that it'd be intriguing to see them fight one another in the WWE ring:

"We would actually be very interested in seeing this fight Brock Lesnar x @jakepaul #WWECrownJewel"

Bert Kreischer lauds Jake Paul's fighting prowess during conversation with Joe Rogan

Comedian Bert Kreischer is one of many who've been captivated by social media influencer Jake Paul's crossover appeal and meteoric rise in the combat sports world.

During episode 1892 of the JRE (Joe Rogan Experience) podcast, Kreischer spoke to his friend and podcast host Joe Rogan regarding Paul's ever-evolving fighting skills. Praising Paul's combat prowess, Kreischer stated:

"He is a great fighter... Like you can deny that the dude is f*****g athletic as f**k. But people size you up by based on what they see you as the first time. So they see you as a Disney guy and then they go, you'll never be a fighter."
