A video circulating on social media shows Tom Brady smacking Logan Paul on the head during an onstage confrontation at Fanatics Fest 2026.
The incident occurred Friday as the retired NFL quarterback and the WWE star/YouTuber faced off in front of a crowd recording with cell phones.
New York Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns stood nearby as Brady and Paul engaged in a heated argument.
Brady then slapped Paul upside the head, prompting an agitated reaction from Paul. Towns stepped in to hold Paul back as he continued exchanging words with Brady.
Later, Brady posted a video of the altercation on X, calling Paul a "dork." In a follow-up post, he referred to Paul as a "nerd."
Paul responded on X, claiming Brady only hit him because Paul beat him in flag football. Paul also criticized Brady for setting a bad example for his children.
The two have been trading insults since February, when Paul suggested his WWE career made him as much of an athlete as Brady, a seven-time Super Bowl champion.
That comment sparked a series of trash-talking exchanges leading up to Fanatics Fest.
Whether the slap was real or staged remains unclear. Fans are left to speculate on what happens next.
