Logan Paul later provoked Roll, leading to a dramatic 'chokeslam' through a desk. This shocking live television incident has intensified the WWE SummerSlam storyline.

Orton-McIntyre Brawl Disrupts Kimmel Broadcast

Jelly Roll, serving as guest host on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live', welcomed Randy Orton to discuss their upcoming WWE tag team match at SummerSlam. Drew McIntyre unexpectedly burst onto the set, confronting both men.

McIntyre taunted them, provoking a heated fight with Orton that moved offstage. The show broadcast this sequence live on July 17, 2025. This marked a significant crossover between mainstream entertainment and professional wrestling, bringing the SummerSlam 2025 storyline to a wider audience.

Jelly Roll 'Chokeslams' Logan Paul Through Desk

Following the backstage brawl involving Orton and McIntyre, Logan Paul appeared on set to confront Jelly Roll. Paul provoked the singer with insults and then delivered a slap. Roll reacted immediately, executing a 'chokeslam' that sent Paul crashing through a desk. This shocking moment generated a strong reaction from the studio audience and quickly gained widespread attention across social media, further intensifying the rivalry between the celebrities and wrestlers before SummerSlam.

SummerSlam Preparations And Fan Reactions Unfold

The clash at Jimmy Kimmel Live serves as a preview to Jelly Roll’s WWE debut, where he will team with Randy Orton to face Logan Paul and Drew McIntyre at SummerSlam. Roll has openly spoken about his training for the event, sharing details on 'The Pat McAfee Show'.

Orton commended Roll’s commitment during the 'Kimmel' appearance, noting this dedication leads towards one of the most significant celebrity wrestling debuts of the year.

While the crossover segment created considerable discussion, reactions within the wrestling community were mixed. Some fans voiced scepticism about extensive celebrity involvement, questioning if it detracts from SummerSlam’s traditional wrestling focus. Nevertheless, the live television brawl and 'desk-smashing' finish captured considerable public attention for WWE.

Building The SummerSlam Narrative: A Timeline Of Escalation

The dramatic events on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' are the culmination of weeks of escalating tension. The brawl aired live on July 17, 2025, but the build-up began earlier.

The week prior, Jelly Roll participated in SmackDown segments and the official SummerSlam tag match announcement took place at Saturday Night’s Main Event. His wrestling training and growing involvement in WWE storylines over recent weeks set the stage for this high-profile late-night confrontation ahead of his in-ring debut.

During the 'Kimmel' segment, McIntyre's barbed insults and Orton's quick defence of his partner added authenticity to the developing feud. Post-brawl, Roll warned of swift retribution at SummerSlam.

Orton also assured viewers of their teamwork and resolve to "get ours" at the pay-per-view event. This entire sequence, some would say, demonstrates WWE's strategy to blend entertainment contexts, elevating storyline intensity through live, unscripted surprises.
