IShowSpeed Explains How His WrestleMania 40 Appearance Came About
IShowSpeed explains how his WrestleMania 40 appearance came about.
IShowSpeed reflects on making an appearance in WWE earlier this year.
At WrestleMania 40, Logan Paul would put his WWE United States title on the line in a triple threat match vs Kevin Owens and Randy Orton. Just like WrestleMania 39, Logan was joined by a PRIME mascot who would get involved in the bout. While WrestleMania 39 saw KSI in the suit, WrestleMania 40 saw IShowSpeed put on the suit and take an RKO from Randy Orton.
While speaking to Jon Youshaei in a recent interview, Speed explained how the appearance came to be.
“So pretty much, I think, I don’t know where we was at. But, you know, oh, yeah, me and Prime was shooting, like, their first, like, we was shooting our first shoot. Logan Paul was there and KSI was there. So, I was, like, and, you know, Logan Paul works for, like, WWE. So, somebody on my team, you know, gave a chat to Logan Paul, like, yo, like, you know, we should do something with the WWE, blah, blah, blah. We sent a message to Logan. Logan sent a message to the WWE. WWE approved. Then, you know, then we did our thing. We did our thing. Yeah, I got RKO’d by Randy Orton and I got fucked up.”
