British YouTuber and boxer KSI got a brutal RKO by Randy Orton on the latest episode of WWE SmackDown on March 8. The event was headlined by the return of Logan Paul, even though he had no scheduled fight. Randy Orton, on the other hand, was part of the SmackDown roster and was slated to compete in a tag-team match with Kevin Owens. KSI made it to the weekly show alongside Paul, and before the show, the duo announced their new sponsorship deal with WWE.
Before the fight, Orton appeared out of nowhere and launched a brutal RKO on KSI, which knocked out KSI on the mat. Orton then went on to pour KSI and Paul’s Prime Drink on the former while he was still in side the ring. The attack from the reigning World Heavyweight Champion certainly hurt KSI, as he was later seen with a neck brace.
KSI reacts to receiving RKO from Randy Orton
The 30-year-old reacted to getting RKO from Orton by sharing a hilarious post on his social media. The Prime Drink co-founder wrote on X, “Why am I always just getting beat up on WWE?” After KSI got knocked out, American wrestling hero Dutch Mantell heaped some praise on KSI. He was quoted by KSI as saying, "I'm going to give KSI credit. He took a hell of an RKO. He took a hell of an RKO! See, those two guys, I think, were made for wrestling.”
He added, “They understand it. Especially Logan Paul, and KSI, who laid out right over the Prime thing they had in the middle of the ring, the sign. It was good, very good!" Notably, this isn’t the first time KSI has been a victim of wrestlers’ wrath. Previously, he was hit by Seth Rollins with a splash at WrestleMania 39.
