Logan Paul has been accused of 'leeching off' the WWE to grow his stardom by rival Seth Rollins. After forming his fame on YouTube, Paul has since ventured into the world of wrestling and become one of the WWE's most talked about stars.

Despite making his WWE debut less than two years ago, the American has already forged a number of rivalries within the ring. Most notably, Paul and fellow fighter Rollins have grown to dislike each other in recent months.

This comes after the YouTuber-turned-fighter ignited their feud after he eliminated the 36-year-old from January's 30-man Royal Rumble in Texas.

Since then, their squabble has continued online with the pair exchanging blows on social media. Rollins then continued his attack when appearing on the Pat McAfee Show, where he slammed Paul for using professional wrestling for his own 'personal game'.

Rollins said: "The guy doesn't care about nothing but himself. I can respect the hustle alright. I respect the hustle, I really do because it takes hustle to get where he's at and to get the opportunities that he's got.

"But at the end of the day, it's about passion. No one is just going to suit up and be an NFL superstar, they're going to get creamed." Amid their ongoing feud, Paul and Rollins have been linked with a potential clash at Wrestlemania later this year.

Following the rumours, Rollins had a strong warning for the YouTuber: "He's going to step into my world and he's going to get creamed. He's in it for his own gain so I don't want you a part of my business if you're just going to leach off it and take from it.

"Great if you're going to come and help out and make everything as good as you can but if you're going to come and do it for you? Look, I can only judge based on what he's done in the past, his own history because that's a foretelling for the future, that's why I don't like the guy, that's why I don't dig the guy.

"And he's going to go and rub it in on social media, he's going to talk his talk but he don't want to say nothing to my face. I'm just saying, you can love him all you want. He's polarising but he's not for me, he's just not my cup of tea."
