Logan Paul is finally back in WWE after a long hiatus from the company, and he has immediately set the stage on fire. Even before his return on last week’s SmackDown, The Maverick was in the spotlight for a long time, due to his controversial rivalry with Dillon Danis.
Both of these combat sports stars went one-on-one at October 14’s Misfits boxing event, and Logan came out on top. Even though Paul decimated the MMA star, he still isn’t holding himself back, as he took a dig at his rival on the latest episode of Monday Night RAW.
This happened when the YouTube star came out for a promo on the show. In the segment, when he was interacting with the audience, he turned his attention to Dillon. Talking about how the 30-year-old got dropped from his Bellator MMA contract, Paul mocked him for getting released from his job.

The Impaulsive co-host boasted of how he embarrassed Danis and claimed that he was the reason behind his release. He mocked the Jiu-Jitsu star by saying,”That fool that I beat in my boxing fight last weekend embarrassed himself so badly that he got dropped by his fight league.”
Alongside his claims that he was the reason for El Jefe’s release from Bellator, Logan also said that Danis has been left unemployed due to the way he lost. While it’s true that The Maverick embarrassed his opponent during the October 14 bout, Dillon might not be that hurt, as he made a massive $1 million from the encounter.
What is Dillon Danis up to after losing the Logan Paul fight?
As Logan claimed on RAW that Dillon Danis is now unemployed, a lot of people started wondering if that’s the reality. While it’s true that El Jefe is no longer signed to his former workplace, he probably has a number of options to choose from to sign with.
Ever since the Jiu-Jitsu artist lost his match against Logan, he’s been talking about the pre-fight deal both of them had. As per that deal, Paul agreed for a rematch in MMA, and Danis has called out The Maverick for the same, but the YouTuber hasn’t really responded to it.
With the 28-year-old WWE star already set to fight at the Crown Jewel event on November 4, it seems that the rematch isn’t happening. But despite this, Danis might be entering the industry, as he’s reportedly interested in going to the UFC.
PFL has bought Bellator. The only way I’ll stay is if they book me against Jake Paul; otherwise, I’m going to the UFC.

The speculations about him signing with the promotion have been enhanced by El Jefe himself, as he has hinted at it on his X handle a number of times. While it’s true that it could be a great career move by the controversial MMA fighter, will all the rumors eventually become a reality? Only the future holds the answer to this.
