Jelly Roll sent Logan Paul crashing through a table during a chaotic episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live!
The 40-year-old singer – who is set to make his WWE wrestling debut in a tag team match at SummerSlam in August – was a special guest host for the late night talk show on Wednesday (16.07.25) with his tag partner Randy Orton also on the programme.
Drew McIntyre, one of their opponents at the upcoming event over August 2 and 3, interrupted the interview, sparking a brawl between the two wrestlers which spilled backstage.
Jelly attempted to bring things back on track, only for Logan Paul – Drew’s tag partner for the match – to come out on stage and slap the host.
The Save Me hitmaker ended up hitting the Chokeslam move made famous by the likes of The Undertaker, sending the controversial YouTuber through the desk.
The exchange was part of the storyline building to the blockbuster SummerSlam match.
Jelly has been working hard before his first ever wrestling match next month, losing almost 300lbs over the last couple of years after previously weighing over 500lbs.
Speaking on The Pat McAfee Show this week, he said: “When me and Hunter [Triple H] started talking, the more I got involved with WWE over the last couple of years, every time I lose weight, they’re like, ‘Looking good’.
“‘Good enough for a match yet or do I need to lose another hundred?’ ‘A little more, brother.’ [Laughs]. I just kept pushing for it.
“I have been training. I have quietly been living in Orlando for three or four weeks at the PC [WWE Performance Center], showing up every day like a piece of furniture.
“They can’t keep me out of there. I’m there from the moment I wake up until it closes. I’m obsessed.”
Jelly explained that he’s been working with retired WWE wrestler turned coach Matt Bloom, while some big names have been on hand to help.
He added: “I was training with Matt Bloom the other day, and Undertaker comes in with Michelle [McCool]. ‘They just want to watch for a minute, is that cool?’ ‘For sure.’
“This is who he is as a human. The entire three-hour session, him and his wife stood on those ropes and gave me pointer after pointer.
“Kevin Owens, Jacob Fatu came in and wrestled with me the other day for three-four hours.”
He claimed the reason the WWE superstars and legends are so willing to help him is his clear passion and drive to make it work.
He said: “These dudes are like pouring into me because they see that I’m trying to take it as serious as I can.”
