Reports are coming out that the WWE is in negotiations with future Hall of Famer Tom Brady for an unspecified appearance.

WrestleMania 42, scheduled for April 19, is coincidentally being held at Allegiant Stadium, home of the Las Vegas Raiders, a team of which Brady is a minority owner.

Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer Radio said nothing’s official yet, but it could happen.

“Obviously, Logan Paul and Tom Brady are working. I mean, everyone knows they’re working the angle, I think people have seen that,” he said Monday.

The first-ever Fanatics Flag Football Classic was Saturday, and Brady and Paul added another chapter to their brewing conflict.

In one standout moment, Brady rifled the ball toward Paul after the whistle — a move Paul clearly took exception to.

The drama began last month on Logan’s podcast, “Impaulsive,” when Brady told Paul he was worried for him in the upcoming flag football game.

“You’re a good athlete, but these guys are another level,” Brady said.

Separately, he also described the WWE as “cute and scripted.”

Paul’s team went on to win the game 34-26, and Paul made sure to capitalize on that on social media afterward.

Paul has even roped in Brady’s teammate Rob Gronkowski, who’s no stranger to the WWE, winning the 24/7 Championship back in 2020.

Theoretically, Logan could recruit his brother Jake for a tag team match vs the two footballers, but that remains to be seen.

Two years ago in Madison Square Garden, Logan brought out Indiana Pacers point guard Tyrese Haliburton. Seconds later, home team hero and crowd favorite Jalen Brunson hopped over the barrier from the front row to confront Haliburton.

The Knicks and Pacers faced off in the Eastern Conference Finals last summer and Indiana won the series 4-2 to advance to the NBA Finals.
