Speed is known for his popularity albeit some controversies. However, fans love him for the efforts he puts to entertain them with his videos. Fans expected him to deliver great content given the access to the backstage moments which could feature some of the best wrestlers on the roster like Cena, Seth Rollins, and so on.
IShowSpeed's relationship with WWE
It is not the first collaboration between Speed and WWE. Even in the past, Speed was involved with the Stamford-based company in a different capacity. Speed had his WrestleMania moment in 2024 where he disguised himself in the Prime bottle and tried to get under Randy Orton's skin.
It ensured his friend Logan Paul was able to defend the United States Championship. Randy was mad about the distraction and delivered an RKO through the table to Speed who was barking at him. Following the incident, Speed took to YouTube and claimed Wrestling was not fake.
Apart from that, he also showed up on an episode of Smackdown along with Logan. Speed is a part of Prime, an energy drink, which is collaborated with WWE as one of the partners. Speed will be appearing in the Royal Rumble for the first time. Some of the fans even funnily asked him to be one of the Royal Rumble entrants.
