YouTuber IShowSpeed declares ‘everything is real’ in WWE as social media star claims his neck is ‘f****d’, has a headache and is winded after suffering a Randy Orton RKO at WrestleMania 40

YouTube sensation IShowSpeed ​​has declared that ‘everything is real’ after being hit by an ‘RKO’ from WWE superstar Randy Orton at WrestleMania.

The online star – real name Darren Jason Watkins Jr. – appeared at WWE’s showcase event on Sunday night as part of the United States Championship match.

Dressed as a bottle of PRIME, he accompanied current champion – and energy drink brand owner – Logan Paul to the ring where he took on WWE big hitters Kevin Owens and Randy Orton.

Then, during the match, the teenager was ringside to support Paul, but he couldn’t resist joining in. Interfering in the fight, much to the chagrin of multi-time champion Orton.

Orton then ended IShowSpeed’s night by stripping him of his bright blue bottle costume, then lifting him onto a table and performing his signature move known as the ‘RKO’.

The YouTuber stated that in WWE “everything is real,” but reassured fans after the RKO

IShowSpeed ​​has since taken to social media to address the incident, where he described the amount of pain he experiences after the match and stated that WWE is very real.

He said, “I got an RKO from Randy Orton and to be honest… everything is real, man. I have a headache right now, my neck sucks, very stiff and a lot of it is cramped. I’m bad, bad of breath.

“I’ll be in the hospital for about a day, but I’m not dead, and I’ll be fine.” Randy Orton RKO’d me and I’m in so much pain.”

Fortunately, his small role in the title match was not wasted as Logan Paul successfully retained the United States Title he has held since October when he defeated WWE Hall of Famer Rey Mysterio in Saudi Arabia at Crown Jewel.

This isn’t the first time Paul has gotten his friends in trouble on social media during his successful transition to WWE superstardom.

Earlier this month, his PRIME partner and popular British YouTuber and boxer KSI was on hand at SmackDown to announce a new mat sponsorship for the drinks brand and WWE, but he left the building in the same manner as IShowSpeed.

He too was on the end of an RKO from The Viper ahead of Paul’s match with the WWE legend.

Last month, the British YouTube star also suffered at the hands of Randy Orton and an RKO

Paul’s win was just one part of an epic WrestleMania weekend that could be described as one of the biggest and best events in company history.

Not only did it break several revenue records across the board, but it also culminated in Cody Rhodes ending Roman Reigns’ three-year reign as WWE Champion by defeating him to win the title.

The main event match also featured Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson and WWE icons John Cena and Undertaker.
