IShowSpeed may have lived out a WWE dream at the Royal Rumble, but it came with a painful price. After his unexpected entry into the Men’s Royal Rumble Match, the viral streamer is now bandaged up and on crutches, showing just how brutal his short-lived in-ring experience was.
After the event, Logan Paul shared a backstage video revealing a nasty gash on Speed’s calf, where a chunk of skin was missing. The streamer limped away from the camera, clearly feeling the aftermath of his time in the ring.
Later, Speed took to Twitter/X, posting a photo of himself wrapped up in bandages, a neck brace and using crutches, confirming that he’s worse for wear after the unexpected beatdown.
Speed’s night took a turn after Triple H sent him to the ring as a last-minute replacement for Akira Tozawa, who was eliminated by Carmelo Hayes before officially entering. Speed wasted no time making an impact, helping Bron Breakker eliminate Otis, but his celebration was short-lived.
Breakker speared him nearly in half, then launched him with a Gorilla Press straight into Otis, who sealed the deal with a German Suplex over the announce table.
Now, with Speed hobbling away from the Royal Rumble battered and bruised, the big question is—was this a one-time experience, or will he try to redeem himself in a WWE ring again? He certainly doesn’t think so, as in another tweet he said “no more WWE.”
Do you think IShowSpeed should return to WWE after this beatdown, or was one appearance enough? Drop your thoughts below!
