Shane Gillis Chugs a Beer at Ringside During WWE SmackDown in Austin, Texas

WWE SmackDown brought the chaos to Austin, Texas, on January 24, but it wasn’t just the action in the ring that had people talking. Cameras cut to comedian Shane Gillis sitting ringside before LA Knight’s match against Tama Tonga, and he wasted no time delivering a moment straight out of his stand-up routines—chugging a beer as the crowd erupted.

Gillis, who has never been shy about his love for pro wrestling, threw one back in front of the packed house at the Moody Center. The cameras caught every second, and fans online immediately reacted, calling it a “perfect SmackDown moment.” WWE didn’t stop there—right after Gillis’ beer-chugging cameo, Gabriel Iglesias was spotted enjoying the show, adding to an already star-studded night.

Matthew McConaughey also made an appearance earlier in the night, flashing his signature smirk and blending in with the electric atmosphere. The Oscar winner has been known to drop wrestling references in interviews, and now that WWE is gearing up for the Royal Rumble, fans can’t help but speculate—was this just a fun night out, or is something brewing behind the scenes?

WWE SmackDown always brings the energy, but Gillis chugging a beer at ringside was a whole mood. With WWE constantly pulling surprises, it wouldn’t be shocking if this wasn’t the last time we see him mixing it up with the company.
