Logan Paul has responded to claims made by Ronda Rousey that he's been given special treatment in WWE.
Since leaving WWE last year, Rousey has been openly critical of the company, speaking out on the way she was treated during her time there and having her say on Vince McMahon in light of the recent allegations against the former owner.
In her most recent outburst, Rousey made some new allegations against WWE. She claimed that the company is 'rolling out the red carpet' for Logan Paul, insinuating that he is being given preferential treatment due to his celebrity status.
Paul has now hit back at the UFC Hall of Famer during an appearance on with his brother, Jake Paul. The current WWE United States Champion, who has received rave reviews for his work since transitioning to professional wrestling, stated that he hasn't taken Rousey's comments as an attack but wonders if she's just not happy with how her run in WWE went.

He said: "I want to approach this from a real mature standpoint because I like Ronda Rousey, what she's done in MMA is incredible."
"We watched her growing up, snapping arms. I have a lot of respect for Ronda Rousey. Every time I've met her, it was very amicable. So when she's saying that, I don't think it's 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.
"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. I think the WWE recognises that when I put on a good match, which will happen every single time I perform, the outcome and the reaction of the fans are immense. It fills the audience.
"I think I've proven my value, both in and out the ring, on the mic, wrestling. The impressions that I'm delivering the company are second to none."
