WrestleMania XL was host to some of the biggest shocking moments the WWE Universe has seen lately. Fans were especially astonished to see the outcome of the US Championship match, where Logan Paul got away with another title win. Randy Orton had almost won the match, but The Maverick took advantage of his weariness to take the pin on Kevin Owens instead.

The Viper is known for being one of the greatest superstars when it comes to reversals. However, Logan Paul got the better of him this time. Notably, while Randy Orton couldn’t capitalize on his RKO to Kevin Owens, he did land an RKO to Paul’s YouTuber friend, IShowSpeed. Interestingly, the rapper and streamer now wants to get back on The Apex Predator for his public humiliation at WrestleMania XL.

YouTube star Darren Watkins, known by his alias IShowSpeed, is currently one of the most famous names on social media and in the streaming community. Collaborating with several YouTubers across the globe, he has furthered his international reach even more. But, his collaboration with Logan Paul at WrestleMania XL led him directly into the jaws of Viper Randy Orton.

Randy Orton wrote a smug caption that said, “I’d like to wish @ishowspeed a speedy recovery 🐍.” Naturally, the post didn’t escape the attention of Watkins.

Giving a response to the 14-time WWE Champ, IShowSpeed wrote, “Wait til I see you again, bro ong🤫🤫.” While it would be easy to say that Darren Watkins did this just for some social media clout. However, IShowSpeed and Randy Orton only have one thing in common: unending stubbornness.

Thus, if the YouTube star has challenged The Apex Predator, then that means he would surely find a way to get revenge on him. However, will IShowSpeed be able to get him? Especially when Randy Orton specializes in striking out of nowhere?

IShowSpeed had shown up as a mascot of the Prime Energy Drink to support his friend Logan Paul. Hence, it is not hard to imagine that The Maverick would also step in to help his buddy. Moreover, the US Champion has been the only person in recent times to have caught the cautious Randy Orton off-guard on two very important occasions.

While IShowSpeed can surely reach The Viper with this strategy, he has already informed him of his arrival. Thus, The Apex Predator will be extra careful. Moreover, Randy Orton can also strike the YouTuber while he tries to sneak in upon him, as he has done with so many of his other opponents.
