American YouTuber Darren Jason Watkins Jr, popular as IShowSpeed, recently attended the WWE WrestleMania 40 to promote Logan Paul and ended up getting an RKO from Randy Ortan, injuring his neck.
The viral video shows IShowSpeed suddenly emerging in front of Orton. Wrapped in Prime Energy drink packaging cover, Speed tried to save Paul from Ortan — who was about to perform a finishing move—and pulled him outside the ring. Irked Orton went to see the man behind the rap and gave an RKO.
Sharing the video on X, Wreselt Ops wrote, “Randy Orton Rko’s IShowSpeed!!!”
