IShowSpeed Taps Randy Orton as Trainer for Potential WWE Match

YouTube sensation IShowSpeed is stepping into the ring — and he’s doing it under the guidance of none other than Randy Orton.

According to a new report from Fightful Select, Speed was at the WWE Performance Center this past Monday filming the third episode of his new show, Speed Goes Pro. The series features Speed getting trained by elite athletes across different sports to see if he’s got what it takes to go pro. After working with NFL legend Tom Brady in the premiere episode, he’s now diving into the world of professional wrestling — with a 14-time World Champion pushing him to the limit.

Randy Orton will serve as Speed’s mentor in the episode, which was filmed with several WWE Superstars in attendance. The series has already found massive traction, with the first episode racking up over 5.7 million views on YouTube.

This isn’t IShowSpeed’s first WWE moment, though. Fans will remember his surprise appearance at WrestleMania 40, where he tried to assist Logan Paul but ended up eating an RKO from Orton. He also got laid out with a spear from Bron Breakker at the Royal Rumble.

Despite his painful history in the ring, WWE reportedly sees potential in a future match for Speed. While there are no official plans just yet, WWE remains open to the idea of Speed actually competing.

With Logan Paul and Bad Bunny already proving that mainstream stars can thrive in a WWE ring, Speed might just be the next viral crossover star to make that leap — especially with Randy Orton showing him the ropes.
