Logan Paul at WrestleMania 39 LIVE: UK start time, live stream and how to follow – YouTube sensation takes on Seth Rollins
Logan Paul will be looking to make sure all eyes are on him when he returns to WWE to compete at WrestleMania 39 this weekend.
The YouTube sensation debuted on last year’s edition of Show of Shows to help The Miz defeat the Mysterio Family.
Paul stole the show with his performance and impressed WWE so much that he was given a multi-event wrestling contract.
The 27-year-old publicly bowed out to face John Cena at WrestleMania Hollywood, but those plans were cancelled.
The 0-1 boxer will instead face Seth Rollins after months of back and forth between the two after the former knocked out the architect at the Royal Rumble in January.

The card for Night One will start from 1am UK time, but Paul’s fight won’t be expected until 5am on Sunday morning.
BT Sport Box Office is set to show the two-night event on UK TV again for £19.95.
It can also be streamed live on the WWE Network – £9.99 per month for subscribers.

Logan Paul at WrestleMania 39: What was said?
Rollins told WWE After the Bell, “In Logan Paul’s situation, I don’t understand what long-term value he’s going to be able to give back to us.
“It’s, again, one thing if you go in, do your thing and leave, but the dude has a WWE contract.
“This guy is supposed to have a few matches a year. I don’t know what its market is, but that doesn’t make you an ambassador for the company. That’s not wrestling.
“I don’t want my students — I own a wrestling school — I don’t want the next generation of kids coming into the business to think that’s how you get into pro wrestling, because if everyone follows this pattern, the business is dead.
“It’s dead. It no longer exists.”
