On the latest installment of the “Impaulsive” podcast, KSI shared his exhilarating encounter taking an RKO from Randy Orton during a recent episode of “WWE SmackDown.”
The moment unfolded after Logan Paul, United States Champion, announced that their energy and hydration drink company, PRIME, had secured the position of WWE’s inaugural center-ring sponsor.
What was meant to be a celebratory occasion was abruptly interrupted by the arrival of Randy Orton, who delivered a thunderous RKO to KSI, leaving a lasting impact on the social media personality.
Describing the RKO experience, KSI candidly expressed that it was “one of the best things” he has ever done.
However, the physical toll was apparent as he recounted the aftermath, detailing a smushed nose, a cut-up lip, and the inside of his lip being significantly affected from the force of the impact. Despite the physical toll, KSI seemed to relish the experience, emphasizing the intensity of the move.
This wasn’t KSI’s first involvement with WWE. In the previous year, he played a notable role at WrestleMania 39 alongside Logan Paul. During that event, dressed as a blue PRIME bottle, KSI became an unwitting participant in a dramatic moment.
As Paul attempted a frog splash, Seth “Freakin” Rollins intervened, pulling KSI into Paul’s trajectory, resulting in both individuals crashing through a nearby table.
Considering KSI’s unexpected encounters with WWE Superstars, the hosts of “Impaulsive,” including Logan Paul and Mike Majlak, entertained the notion of KSI potentially becoming a United States Champion in the future. Responding to this idea, KSI humorously positioned himself as the sporadic Shane McMahon of WWE.
While not seeking a full-time wrestling role, he expressed openness to making occasional appearances, likening his approach to that of Shane McMahon and not ruling out the possibility of experiencing a Stone Cold Stunner.
In essence, KSI seems to be embracing the sporadic and unpredictable nature of his WWE ventures, keeping the door open for future entertaining moments in the squared circle.
