Popular NFL player Patrick Mahomes showed up on this week’s Raw. In a short appearance, he made a lot of headlines throughout the globe.

Now, a new report has finally shed some light on this intriguing aspect.

The 28-year-old footballer was at the ringside during the segment between Jey Uso, Judgment Day, and the United States Champion.

Vince Russo commented on Patrick Mahomes accompanying Logan Paul on Raw
Logan Paul appeared on this week’s Raw for some Draft-related announcements. He was accompanied by Patrick Mahomes, which was quite a scene to witness. Former WWE writer Vince Russo commented on the showing of the Kansas City QB and revealed his takeover of him being a heel.
Speaking on Legion of Raw, Russo stated that he believes Mahomes is a buddy of the United States Champion. Therefore, in order for them to continue their real-life bond on screen, Patrick was kept on screen. It was a subtle but true remark by the former WWE writer.
Here's the only logical explanation. This is the only logical explanation that Mahomes is Logan Paul's boy... and Logan Paul got him on the show,Vince Russo
It was a pretty accurate analysis by Russo himself. WWE made sure to milk the popularity of the NFL sensation on their show. His appearance generated a lot of buzz and engagement everywhere. Therefore, it is less likely that this is the only appearance of the Quarterback in WWE.
