The rivalry between Jelly Roll and Logan Paul has reached new heights. Not only that, but WWE legends Randy Orton and Drew McIntyre have also been fully involved. After the events of Saturday Night’s Main Event, their latest scuffle took place on Jimmy Kimmel Live on July 17th.
Jelly Roll hosted the show, with The Viper as the special guest. As they were talking about their upcoming tag team match at SummerSlam, McIntyre interrupted them and mocked the singer for his weight loss. Orton had enough of The Scottish Warrior’s nonsense and started a brawl. Roll announced a commercial break, standing in confusion.
However, Paul also made an appearance, slapped Roll, and hurled insults. The 40-year-old star clapped back by delivering a powerful chokeslam to Paul, sending him crashing through the table. While speaking on The Pat McAfee Show, he shared that The Undertaker and Michelle McCool gave him many pointers ahead of his first match. Not only them, but Kevin Owens and Jacob Fatu also helped him learn the skills needed.
Orton recently wrestled his good friend Cody Rhodes in the finals of the KOTR in Saudi Arabia. McIntyre taunted him for becoming “soft” on the next SmackDown, but ended up eating an RKO. That set up a match between both of them at Saturday Night’s Main Event. The match was filled with interruptions from both Roll and Paul, but The Apex Predator ended up winning the match.
