Logan Paul recently addressed Ronda Rousey's comments about the special treatment he allegedly receives in WWE.

Like Rousey, Paul became a WWE wrestler after building a huge audience elsewhere in sports and entertainment. In an interview on the Steve-O's Wild Ride! podcast, The Baddest Woman on the Planet claimed her WWE match rehearsal time was "not evenly spread," compared to Paul.

The Maverick appeared on the latest episode of his brother's podcast, BS w/Jake Paul. Asked about Rousey's remarks, he said the WrestleMania 35 main-eventer is likely frustrated with WWE and not him.

"I have a lot of respect for Ronda Rousey," Paul stated. "Every time I've met her, it's been very amicable. So, when she's saying that, I don't think it's like a personal attack on me by any means. I don't feel she's coming after me. I feel she's maybe using me as an example to express her dissatisfaction with maybe how she was treated in the WWE, but I can't speak on that because I don't know how she was treated." [7:00 – 7:28]

Rousey has made several disparaging comments about Vince McMahon and WWE in recent months. The UFC Hall of Famer also made it clear she does not plan to wrestle for the company again.


Logan Paul explains why WWE treats him so well

Unlike WWE's full-time superstars, Logan Paul already had a huge fanbase before making his in-ring debut.

Paul believes he is given more rehearsal time than most wrestlers because WWE management values his contribution and worldwide appeal.

"I don't think she's a hater. I think she might be unhappy with how her run in the WWE went, but I don't know anything really about that. All I know is how I work and the facilities and time that I've been given to make my matches as best as possible, because I think WWE recognizes that when I put on a good match, which will happen every single time I perform, the outcome and the reaction of the fans is immense." [7:38 – 8:10]

Paul is the current United States Champion. On April 7, the 29-year-old retained his title against Kevin Owens and Randy Orton at WrestleMania XL.
