Joining Logan Paul’s entourage at WrestleMania 40, IShowSpeed donned a Prime bottle costume before making his presence known alongside the reigning United States Champion.
However, Orton’s reaction to the unexpected ally was far from welcoming, as he confronted IShowSpeed and delivered a stunning RKO on the announce table.
In a thrilling Triple-Threat Match involving Orton, Logan Paul, and Kevin Owens, tensions ran high as the competitors battled for supremacy.
Ultimately, Paul emerged victorious, retaining his title with a decisive Frog Splash on Owens for the win.
Paul’s triumph at WrestleMania marked a milestone in his career, as he continues to enjoy his first-ever reign as a singles champion in WWE.
Following his victory over Rey Mysterio at Crown Jewel to capture the United States Championship, Paul’s successful defense against Owens at the Royal Rumble 2024 Premium Live Event further solidified his status as a formidable champion on the WWE roster.
