This week’s WWE Smackdown delivered unexpected drama when music star Jelly Roll stepped into the squared circle to defend Randy Orton against an “entitled” Logan Paul.
Jelly Roll Throws Down on Logan Paul
The night’s most talked-about moment unfolded during a live performance by rapper and singer Jelly Roll. Logan Paul, never one to miss a spotlight, interrupted the show, accusing Jelly Roll of “leeching” off WWE and calling him an “outsider.”
This didn’t sit well with the Viper, Randy Orton, who quickly made his way to the ring. Orton didn’t hold back, telling Paul, “The only one who is an outsider here is you. I need you to listen to me really well, you entitled whiny b*****. Everyone back there in the locker room works so hard and moves heaven and earth to make you look good.”
Before Orton could continue his verbal assault, Drew McIntyre attacked him. While security handled McIntyre, Logan Paul saw his opportunity and went after a downed Orton. But Jelly Roll wasn’t having it. The singer quickly intervened, grabbing Paul by the hair and dramatically tossing him across the ring, much to the crowd’s delight.
SmackDown Opens with Surprising Alliances
The chaotic night kicked off early with LA Knight facing off against Paul Heyman, who was soon joined by the formidable Solo Sikoa and his Bloodline clique. Solo bragged about his victory over Jacob Fatu, who had previously defeated LA Knight.
When Knight refused to leave the ring, Solo’s faction surrounded him. However, help arrived unexpectedly in the form of Jimmy Uso. Armed with steel chairs, Knight and Uso managed to fend off the attack, hinting at a potential new tag team partnership brewing in WWE.
Championships and Rivalries Heat Up
Beyond the main event fireworks, the evening saw other significant developments. The Wyatt Sicks proved their dominance by capturing the Tag Team Championship, marking a major shift in the tag team division.
Fan-favorite Ron ‘R-Truth’ Killings also secured a victory over Aleister Black in a hard-fought match. Meanwhile, the verbal jabs between Trish Stratus and Tiffany Stratton intensified ahead of their highly anticipated match at the all-women premium event, Evolution.
