The Maverick shared his injury status after losing to the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion in Saudi Arabia over the weekend ... posting a pic showing his iced-up knee with the Sports Illustrated swimsuit cover girl sitting nearby.
Logan was pretty beat up after the entertaining matchup ... and had to be wheelchaired through the airport to catch his flight.
"Best girlfriend ever," Paul said as Agdal pushed him.
Paul got an MRI as soon as he touched back down on U.S. soil ... but we're told he does not know the full extent of his injuries just yet.
Logan showed off his insane athleticism on Saturday ... but ultimately, he could not come away with the win.
It's a big setback for Paul ... and he'll be sidelined for a bit. But, here's hoping he makes a speedy and full recovery.

Heidi Klum Annual Halloween Party ... New Chief Twit 'Stumed in Red
Heidi Klum's annual party brought out all the big celebs, but none were more in the spotlight than Elon Musk ... who had everyone seeing red.
The new Twitter chief showed up Monday night to the Moxy Hotel in NYC, where Klum was hosting her 21st annual gala of getups. He was dressed as some sort of warrior with pretty intricate crimson armor.
His mom was there too ... Maye Musk showed up at one point near Elon, dressed in goth-themed garb. A lot of eyes were on them, without a doubt -- the Twitter buy-out is top of mind these days, and EM's stunts have thrust him to the front of many conversations.
Anyway, the rest of the costumes were pretty sweet too ... including the one worn by the host. She was transformed from head to toe (and even beyond) as a fishing hook worm, with incredible attention to detail ... right down to the ribbing along the body.
Her husband, Tom Kaulitz, was dressed as a fisherman ... and Heidi was his oversized bait. At one point, though, she lost the worm suit and showed off her figure underneath.
Other stars who showed up dressed to impress -- Ice-T and Coco, Heather Graham, Julia Fox, Chloe Kim, Antoni Porowski, Jonathan Van Ness, Kim Petras, Questlove and more.
The costumes were certainly impressive ... and cap off a packed weekend that was full of famous monsters and ghouls who did back-to-back-to-back nights in parties -- with Heidi's obviously being the last stop.
Her get-togethers are kinda legendary, as are her 'stumes. Happy Halloween!

Tom Brady On Gisele Divorce ... 'It's A Very Amicable Situation'
Tom Brady says there hasn't been bad blood between him and Gisele Bundchen during their recent divorce proceedings ... revealing Monday it's all been "a very amicable situation."
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB opened up about his split from his supermodel wife for the first time since she filed the docs in Florida last week ... speaking about the breakup and the fallout from it for around two minutes on his "Let's Go!" podcast with Jim Gray.
Brady never mentioned Gisele by name, and spoke largely in vague cliches, but he did say, thankfully, things haven't gotten nasty between the two former lovers.
"Obviously, the good news is it’s a very amicable situation," he said ... before adding his focus is now on two things -- taking care of his family, and winning football games.
"That's what professionals do," the 45-year-old said.
"You focus at work when it's time to work and then when you come home, you focus on the priorities that are at home. All you can do is the best you can do. And, that's what I'll continue to do as long as I'm working and I'm being a dad."
Brady also addressed whether or not it's all affected his play on the field this season ... and he said no -- explaining he's had to deal with a lot in his personal life throughout his 23-year career.
"Everyone is going through different things," he said. "We all have our unique challenges in life. We're all humans. We do the best we can do."
Gisele officially filed for divorce from Tom on Oct. 28. In the docs, she said the marriage was "irretrievably broken." She added in a statement on her social media page afterward that the two had "grown apart and while it is, of course, difficult to go through something like this, I feel blessed for the time we had together and only wish the best for Tom always."

Gisele & Tom Brady Divorce Filed & Final ... They're Both Single

11:24 AM PT -- TMZ has obtained a copy of the divorce filings. As we reported, the docs say both Tom and Gisele say their marriage was "irretrievably broken." The property settlement and custody agreement remain confidential. What's interesting ... the docs include 2 certificates, showing both Tom and Gisele successfully completed a "Parent Education and Family Stabilization Course." The docs say both Tom and Gisele are "restored to the status of being single and unmarried" -- per the judge.
9:49 AM PT -- That was quick ... the judge has signed off on the divorce settlement Gisele Bündchen filed, and the case is now closed. Gisele and Tom Brady are officially single.
Gisele Bündchen and Tom Brady are done ... TMZ Sports has learned the supermodel just filed for divorce from the NFL superstar.
Bündchen just filed the docs in Florida Friday morning, and Tom is not contesting the divorce.
TMZ broke the story ... Tom and Gisele's lawyers were hammering out a settlement during most of the month of October and have reached an agreement on property and child custody. The settlement document was filed with the court as well, but will remain confidential.
Tom says, "In recent days, my wife and I finalized our divorce from one another after 13 years of marriage. We arrived at this decision amicably and with gratitude for the time we spent together. We are blessed with beautiful and wonderful children who will continue to be the center of our world in every way. We will continue to work together as parents to always ensure they receive the love and attention they deserve."
He continues, "We arrived at this decision to end our marriage after much consideration. Doing so is, of course painful, and difficult, like it is for so many people who go through the same thing every day around the world. However, we wish only the best for each other as we pursue whatever new chapters in our lives that are yet to be written."
Similarly, Gisele says ... "The decision to end a marriage is never easy, but we have grown apart and while it is, of course, difficult to go through something like this, I feel blessed for the time we had together and only wish the best for Tom always."
Brady and Gisele began dating back in 2006. They got married in 2009 and went on to have two kids together, Benjamin and Vivian. They've become one of the biggest power couples in Hollywood ... with Tom's net worth estimated at $330 million and Gisele's at around $400 mil.
They've attended countless red carpets together over the years -- especially at the Met Gala, where they've been a constant presence, serving up killer looks and showing off major PDA. In other words, they've always attracted attention on and off the field.
Gisele and Tom have an extensive real estate portfolio ... including at least 3 homes they currently own together, even though they've bought and sold countless properties during their marriage. At the moment, it's known they have mansions in Miami, NYC and Montana.
The properties are just part of a robust list of assets that are certainly going to have to be divvied up as the divorce proceeds. It's been reported they have an ironclad prenup.
Gisele had been a constant in-person supporter of Brady's at his football games throughout his career -- especially at big games, Super Bowls included. However, she's said publicly of late that she was hoping for him to retire. In fact, following his Super Bowl win in Tampa in 2021, Brady said she told him on the field, "What more do you have to prove?"
Gisele Admitted She Had 'Concerns' About Tom Brady's Unretirement In Offseason
She's also said repeatedly that she worries about Tom's health as it pertains to pro football.
Brady did retire in 2022 -- but came back months later. Marital issues between the two first started to trickle out thereafter, but it's become clear there have been issues well before this.
The first signs of trouble cropped up earlier this year, ahead of the 2022-2023 season. Remember, Tom took some personal time off this year ahead of the 2022 season, missing upwards of 11 days during training camp in August ... which have mostly gone unexplained. At the time, different sources said he was dealing with his private life -- without elaboration.
In the wake of that, it was reported that Gisele and Brady had lawyered up and were heading down the path of divorce, with no chance of reconciliation. Tom also continued to make comments about his commitment to football -- and his apparent inability to divide his focus during the playing season ... seemingly telegraphing his BTS thought process.
Gisele, for her part, has also taken some not-so-veiled shots at Tom -- taking to social media and saying she can't be in a committed relationship with someone who's inconsistent. She hasn't been showing up to his games this year, although their kids occasionally have.
Tom -- who's yet to publicly address the reported troubles with his wife -- is having a bit of a down season to start the year ... the Bucs are at 3-5 this season, and aren't playing especially well. TB12 has shown signs of frustration with his players during games.
Brady's head coach, Todd Bowles, said Friday he didn't notice the marital issues affecting the quarterback while he was in and around the facility.
"He does his job when he's out here, and he smiles a lot and that's really all you can go by," Bowles said.
Gisele, meanwhile, has been relaxing and spending a lot of time focusing on herself. She's constantly seen out at the gym and looking unbothered, while Tom's season unravels.

Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen have reached a settlement ending their marriage, and divorce documents will be formally filed today ... sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ.
Our sources say lawyers for both Gisele and Tom have been working with a mediator to hammer out both property settlement and custody, and we're told they have come to terms.
Our sources say the divorce document will be short ... the terms of the settlement will remain confidential and sealed.
The divorce document, we're told, will be filed in Florida. As we reported, the embattled couple's attorneys have been working on this split since early September.
Since then, Gisele's been spending most of her time in the Miami area, where she's been visiting a spiritual healer. Tom, meanwhile, is struggling through a tough season on the field with his Buccaneers.
In fact, today's divorce filing comes right after Tom's team lost a close game in the 4th quarter on Thursday Night Football. It's the first time he's lost 3 consecutive games since 2002. When it rains ...

Blac Chyna Sex Trafficking Claims Are BS ... TikToker Sticks By Story

Exclusive Details
- 217 shares
5:48 PM PT -- Ava Louise is sticking by her side of the story ... she says she believes she would have been the victim of a sex crime or been set up to engage in sex acts for money if she didn't find a way off Blac Chyna's property.
Ava’s lawyers, Eric Mintz and Jason S. Ziven just fired back at BC, with her attorneys claiming Ava contacted the FBI sex trafficking hotline within hours of the alleged incident, resulting in Ava filing an official report with the feds.
In her legal team's response, obtained by TMZ, Ava claims Blac Chyna invited Ava to BC's L.A. home under the guise of discussing a music collaboration.
But during the alleged encounter, Ava says it became clear to her BC had no intention on discussing a professional collab, but rather Ava was being set up for involvement in some type of nonconsensual sex encounter or sex-for-money scheme.
Ava claims BC repeatedly asked Ava if she was transgender and if she had ever worked as an escort ... and Ava says when she told BC she was not an escort someone on FaceTime with BC laughed and said, "You are now!"
What's more, Ava says she felt intimidated and scared, claiming when her Uber arrived BC pulled her into the bathroom and shut the door and manipulated her into staying. Ava says two men were posted outside the bathroom door, and she was only able to leave once Blac Chyna "became overly intoxicated."
Blac Chyna is denying allegations of kidnapping and sex trafficking Ava Louise ... she says the claims are just a desperate attempt to boost the TikTok star's following.
BC had her lawyers fire off a cease and desist letter to Ava after the social media star recently uploaded a series of TikTok posts where she accused Chyna of holding her hostage and trying to pimp her out.
Ava Louise is claiming that Blac Chyna kidnapped her and attempted to sex traffic her. pic.twitter.com/RwLCYkO1NJ
— Jada 🫧 (@BitchofWallSt) October 21, 2022 @BitchofWallSt
In the legal letter, obtained by TMZ, Chyna says everything Ava's alleging is "false, extreme and outrageous" ... and her lawyers are demanding that she immediately cease and desist ... or face the legal consequences.
Blac Chyna's legal team is also taking aim at Ava's credibility ... they say it's part of a pattern of "menacing and outrageous conduct" to increase Ava's social media platform, saying Ava previously admitted to making up false rumors about Kanye West hooking up with YouTube beauty guru Jeffree Star.
Kris Jenner Threatens Legal Action Against TikTok Star Ava Louise
It's worth noting ... Kris Jenner threatened Ava with a lawsuit last year after Ava claimed she received a cease and desist letter from Kris' company threatening legal action if she didn't stop making allegations about Kim and Kanye.
Kris' camp says they never sent Ava such a letter and her story was all made up.
This cease and desist letter, however, is legit.

Onlyfans Model Courtney Clenney Hectic 911 Call After Stabbing ... BF Says 'Can't Feel My Arm' in Final Moments
OnlyFans model Courtney Clenney broke down in tears and started screaming as she called 911 for help after stabbing her boyfriend ... all while he was oddly calm in the final minutes of his life.
The call is pretty disturbing ... on the recording, first obtained by the Miami Herald, Clenney attempts to give the operator their address, and her BF Christian Obumseli is heard saying, "I can't feel my arm!"
Although his audio is in the background of Courtney's screams, it's clear Christian is fading fast.
The operator attempts to calm down Clenney, but things spiral out of control pretty quickly -- she starts sobbing as she apologizes to Obumseli, and tells the operator he's bleeding from a stab wound in his torso.
The call becomes inaudible toward the end, but as you know ... the model told police she fatally stabbed Obumseli with a knife in their Miami condo, but claims it was self-defense.
As we reported, newly-released body cam footage showed police responding to their swanky condo just 2 days before the fatal incident -- where she and a building employee say Obumseli had charged at her in the lobby, and staff had to step in to prevent him from hurting her.

Former "Deal or No Deal" model Claudia Jordan is sticking up for the other briefcase models on the game show ... saying Meghan Markle's claims about being "forced" to become a briefcase "bimbo" just ain't right.
The "RHOA" alum joined "TMZ Live" Wednesday, saying she had no clue the Duchess of Sussex had such negative feelings about being on the show ... and felt her comments were a little unfair for the rest of the models.
Meghan Markle Quit 'Deal or No Deal' Because She Felt Like A 'Bimbo'
Meghan felt the models were "objectified" for their looks and were never able to showcase their brains.
Claudia says there were lots of briefcase models with brains, including Stacey Gardner, who passed the bar exam while she was on the show.
But, as Claudia says, it was no secret ... they signed up for a modeling gig, and clearly, Meghan knew that.
Claudia has been a fierce defender of Meghan's, saying the racist treatment she got from the British press and the treatment she generally got from the Royals was appalling, but the "Deal or No Deal" complaint is different.
Claudia has a great example of why Meghan's off base on this one ... and it involves strippers.

OnlyFans Model Courtney Clenney Cries Out for Help 2 Days Before Killing ... New Body Cam Video
OnlyFans model Courtney Clenney freaked out in her Miami apartment building and claimed her boyfriend attempted to attack her 2 days before she allegedly butchered him, this according to newly released police body cam footage.
The dramatic videos were filmed April 1, 2022, after police responded to the swanky condo ... to investigate a domestic squabble between Courtney and Christian Obumseli. Courtney was charged with Christian's murder after they got into another blowout fight two days later.
In the body cam footage, Courtney is seen with the police and a building employee, who explains Christian charged at Clenney in the lobby and staff had to step in to prevent him from hurting her.
Courtney frantically tells the cops she broke up with Christian, but he wouldn't leave her apartment. At one point, she becomes very upset and asks for a restraining order against him.
But, police tell Courtney they can't do anything -- not even kick Christian out of her apartment -- unless she gets the stay away order through the court. That's when Courtney breaks down in tears, insisting she's the victim and scared to even walk her dog. Cops then search the building and Courtney's apartment, but they can't find Christian anywhere.
As we reported, Courtney fled to Hawaii after Christian's slaying, but was arrested there in August and extradited back to Miami to stand trial for second-degree murder. Courtney claimed self-defense, pointing to Christian alleged history of abusing her. Christian's family accused Courtney of being the aggressor and trying to rewrite history.

Hailey Bieber Poses w/ Selena, Sans Justin ... After 'CHD' Interview
The perceived drama between Hailey Bieber and Selena Gomez is all water under a bridge -- something HB confirmed in an interview ... and is now double confirming with a photo.
The two stars cheesed it up Saturday night ... posing together for a photo taken by professional BTS party photog Tyrell Hampton at the Academy Museum Gala in L.A., where the stars were out in force and dressed to the nines amid Oscar season.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
Both women looked stunning in their outfits, with Selena walking the red carpet solo in a suit ... and ditto for Hailey, who was in a cropped dress. Justin Bieber wasn't there.
It seems they crossed paths either inside the museum at an after-party, and apparently felt chummy enough for a joint snap. Selena's holding Hailey's leg and they're both leaned in close. Tyrell's caption ... "plot twist" -- obviously referencing Hailey's recent sit-down.
You'll recall ... Hailey dished about the fan-fueled notion that she'd stolen Justin away from Selena, a narrative that's been going on for years now -- which she shot down completely.
Hailey Bieber Says She Didn't Steal Justin Bieber Away From Selena Gomez
She said she respected Justin and Selena's relationship while it was going on, and didn't interfere at all.
Eventually, JB and SG fizzled out and he got with Hailey ... and she even said she thinks he needed closure from his history with Selena to formally move on.
Hailey also said she and Selena were on good terms, and had even spoken since she and Justin got together ... and eventually hitched. As for the toxic fans pitting the two ladies against each other, HB had some choice words for them too.
If her words weren't' convincing enough for folks, the proof is in the polaroid. All is well!
BTW ... we weren't kidding when we said this was a Hollywood who's-who. The heavyweights showed up for this thing -- including George Clooney, Julia Roberts, Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner, Emma Stone, Olivia Wilde, Kerry Washington, Jessica Chastain, Keke Palmer, Glenn Close, Tilda Swinton, Rebel Wilson, John Cho, Adrien Brody and more.
It's just that time of the year, we suppose.

Kanye West Arm in Arm with Model for a Movie ... New GF Material???
Kanye West is hitting the town again with Brazilian model Juliana Nalú -- this time catchin' a flick together ... and, no, he did not wear the "White Lives Matter" shirt. This time.
Ye and Juliana hit up a movie theater Sunday night in Hollywood ... getting a pair of tickets for Swedish filmmaker Ruben Östlund's "Triangle of Sadness."
On the surface, not a great title for date night, but hey ... it's Ye.
The 24-year-old model was reppin' some of his merch once again -- the "2024" hat he's shown off online and worn in the past.
These 2 had already been out and about recently -- they checked into a hotel together Thursday in Beverly Hills ... and followed that up with dinner Saturday night at Giorgio Baldi in Santa Monica.
FYI -- Juliana's had modeling on her mind for a loooong time ... telling Latina Magazine she knew it was in her blood since she was 6.
As we reported, Kanye's "White Lives Matter" fashion statement last week seemed to tick off tons of his fans, but that didn't slow him down -- instead, he donned the long-sleeve shirt at his daughter's basketball game ... right behind Kim Kardashian, no less.

Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen's hunt for divorce lawyers have actually run much deeper than reported -- it's been in the works for weeks, and as things stand now, the marriage is beyond saving ... TMZ Sports has learned.
We've spoken to sources on both sides who tell us the estranged couple has independently contacted some big divorce lawyers, with talks starting several weeks ago.

Gisele was spotted Monday in Miami leaving a workout.

We've reached out to reps for Tom and Gisele ... so far, no word back.

Margot Robbie, Cara Delevingne Incident with Photog in Argentina ... New Surveillance Video
-
Exclusive Details
- 497 shares
10:08 PM PT -- 10/3 -- We've now obtained video which allegedly shows Orguera being chased before he falls to the ground. Unclear who is chasing him, but it could possibly be one of the men who was with Cara and Margot during the initial encounter.
5:11 PM PT -- Photos of the paparazzo who was injured in Argentina have surfaced, and it certainly looks like he was banged up as a result of the incident.
The man, Pedro Orquera, is seen here on a stretcher during the night in question (very early Sunday morning) with a neck brace on in one photo ... and a full-blown arm cast in another.
The second photo seems to show him at the hospital ... with a dazed look on his face. It has also since been reported that the two guys who were taken in by police are filmmaker friends of Margot and Cara's -- including a film producer and a key grip, both of whom are said to have already appeared in court. Again, it's not clear what charges they're facing.
Orquera seems to run his photo agency ... Cool Press Publicity.
Margot Robbie and Cara Delevingne were thrust into a dangerous situation in Argentina this weekend -- one that left a paparazzi photographer going to cops and alleging assault.
Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... the two stars were dining in Buenos Aires early Sunday morning, and as they were leaving a restaurant (Patagonia Sur in the La Boca neighborhood), there was an Uber waiting for them -- but the pickup went awry.
We're told that as the ladies were entering the car, a pap rushed them and started taking photos aggressively, intruding in their space. Our sources say the encounter freaked out the driver, who took off -- with Cara fully in the car, and Margot halfway in and halfway out.
Margot actually had to jump out of the car to avoid being seriously hurt, we're told, but even after she was on the ground ... the photog continued snapping. That's when a couple of male friends of Margot's, who were on hand, jumped in to help -- per our sources.
Now, we're being told the photog ran off and fell on his own at this point -- but he's telling police there in Buenos Aires something very different ... namely, that he was brutally beaten by these two gents, whom he perceived as security guards, and hospitalized.
According to the online Argentine newspaper Infobae -- which has been in business since 2002 -- the pap, named Pedro Alberto Orquera, was left with a broken arm and a bloody scalp after the alleged beatdown ... this per a police report the outlet claims to have seen.
They go on to say that the guy wanted to press charges ... and since then, the two men -- Jac Rhis Hopkins and Josei Mac Namara Callum -- have been detained. Our sources tell us they are NOT bodyguards (just pals) but that they are, in fact, in police custody.
Unclear if they've been arrested/booked on any specific charges yet. We've tried reaching out to the local authorities for confirmation, but so far ... no luck in connecting with anyone for info. Infobae reports the authorities are interested in prosecuting, pending an investigation.
No word on what may have happened after the alleged incident as it pertains to Margot and Cara -- but on the face of things ... it sounds like an upsetting altercation to say the least.
We've reached out to Margot and Cara's reps to check in on how they're doing. The two women are obviously close friends -- proven in recent house visits Margot's made amid issues Cara's been dealing with. They also travel together often, like earlier this summer.
We haven't heard back from either of their camps.
