Jelly Roll says WWE SummerSlam match was the greatest show he’s ever done
Jelly Roll said his WrestleMania experience was “spiritual.”
During the SummerSlam post-show, the country music star said performing at Saturday’s SummerSlam event was one of the coolest moments of his life, comparing it to performing at the Grand Ol’ Opry, marrying his wife, and the birth of his child.
“I mean, literally the greatest show I’ve ever done…it was spiritual, it was special,” he said.
Triple H told Jelly Roll that he had earned respect in the locker room, a word that he doesn’t use lightly. He also brought up that in his first day of training at the WWE PC, he broke his finger, but taped it right back up and went out to train more.
“What people don’t see in what it took him to get here is hundreds of pounds of weight loss, of hours and hours and hours in the gym, dedicating himself to lose weight. To be here, to do this. To walk into the Performance Center, moving to Orlando so he can train there…broke his finger day one, taped it up, taped it to the other one and got right back in there and went and did it. But also a guy that when he went to the Performance Center would go there, would kill himself training, then would grab the broom and sweep the room up with everybody else,” Triple H said.
When asked if Jelly Roll would come back to a future match, Triple H pointed out that he likely has unfinished business with Logan Paul and Drew McIntyre.
“He’s already talked to me about coming back, he’s already talked to me about doing more. We’ll see when the time is right,” he said.
Jelly also shouted out the NXT coaches Matt Bloom, Robbie Brookside, and Johnny Moss.
In the co-main event of Saturday’s show, Jelly and Randy Orton were unsuccessful in their match against Paul and McIntyre. Despite a valiant effort, Jelly was pinned after a claymore kick by Drew McIntyre and a frog splash by Logan Paul.
