Jake Paul has done well for himself in boxing, but there are many, including WWE superstars, who believe the influencer could transition to pro wrestling.

Paul came to his brother Logan's aid during his WWE Universal title match against Roman Reigns at WWE Crown Jewel earlier this month. While speaking with TMZ Sports, WWE superstar The Miz spoke on whether 'The Problem Child' could be successful in pro wrestling:

"If he has the heart, the dedication and the mind to step in and do what Logan did to get to where he is, then sky's the limit."

The former WWE champion is no stranger to influencers as he teamed up with 'The Maverick' in his in-ring debut at WrestleMania and then wrestled him one-on-one at SummerSlam this past July. Miz believes that the brothers could be a formidable tag team in WWE if they truly dedicate themselves to all aspects of the craft:

"I think they're used to that kind of entertainment aspect, but it's getting the stuff inside the ring down...If he [Jake Paul] dedicates himself to WWE and what we do, who knows. I could see it, it would be great."

Miz definitely knows what he's talking about in that aspect as he had a similar path to WWE. He began as a reality TV star on the MTV series The Real World, before joining the sports entertainment juggernaut and eventually main eventing WrestleMania.

Could Jake and Logan Paul become the next sibling Tag Team champions?

Jake and Logan Paul garner a lot of attention in everything they're involved in, which has been proven with their foray into boxing and pro wrestling respectively.

'The Problem Child' even told TMZ Sports that not only would he like to team up with his brother Logan in WWE, but he'd also like to win the Tag Team championship with him. The influencers could easily pick up where they left off with WWE Tag Team champions The Usos if they went in that direction.

It would be interesting to see how much attention WWE could possibly attract if they were to become the latest sibling team to capture the title. The company has already benefited by having one of the brothers on the roster, so having both on the roster as reigning champions could be enticing.
