A major update has just dropped ahead of WWE SummerSlam 2025—and it involves three of the biggest names in the game right now.
PWInsider reports that Randy Orton will be teaming with Jelly Roll in a featured match at SummerSlam. The two are expected to take on Logan Paul, though the identity of Paul’s tag team partner hasn’t been confirmed just yet.
This update shifts the landscape completely. While Jelly Roll was already slated to appear on the July 11 episode of SmackDown to launch his SummerSlam storyline, early speculation had him teaming with a top babyface—but Cody Rhodes was ruled out. Now, The Viper is stepping in.
Orton’s involvement signals WWE is going all-in on making this celebrity crossover count. Jelly Roll, who smashed chairs over Grayson Waller and Austin Theory at last year’s SummerSlam, has been dropping weight and quietly training for his in-ring debut for months. And now, he’s about to make it official—with one of WWE’s most dangerous legends by his side.
SummerSlam 2025 goes down August 2 and 3 at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, and this match already has the internet talking.
