IShowSpeed reacts to WrestleMania 42 match announcement
IShowSpeed spoke about his upcoming match at WWE WrestleMania 42 on his YouTube channel.
On April 18, during night one of WrestleMania 42, the popular YouTube star is set to team with Logan Paul and Austin Theory against LA Knight and The Usos.
Speaking to his viewers, IShowSpeed described being added to the WrestleMania lineup as “one of them crazy moments.”
“I’m going to be wrestling at WrestleMania, chat, clap it up,” he said.
“I would’ve never thought that I was going to be wrestling at WrestleMania like this.“
“I’ve been a fan of WWE since I was (a kid). I think that was the first sport that I actually got introduced to, bro, was WWE, and I’m not even trolling. Like, I think WWE was the first thing that I got into. Since I was four. So this is crazy. It’s really crazy. We used to wrestle all the time, bro.”
“Me personally, this is like one of them crazy moments.”
The six-man tag team match for WrestleMania 42 was set up on WWE Raw this week. It was announced shortly after Austin Theory defeated LA Knight in the opening bout of the show. During the match, Logan Paul pushed IShowSpeed into Knight, creating a distraction that eventually led to Theory scoring the win with a roll-up.
Following the match, Knight cut a promo calling for a six-man tag at WrestleMania. Raw General Manager Adam Pearce then came out and made the match official.
