Country music star Jelly Roll made his highly-anticipated WWE in-ring debut at SummerSlam 2025, teaming up with Randy Orton to take on Drew McIntyre and Logan Paul. The country force delivered a series of impressive moves, including slams and elbow drops, but ultimately fell short against the formidable opponent.
Jelly’s performance was electrifying, as he performed his entrance theme song “Voices” that got the MetLife Stadium crowd pumped up. He started strong, taking on Logan Paul with an early shoulder tackle, before later delivering a clinical bodyslam. However, Paul managed to counter with a frog splash, securing the 1-2-3 victory.
Before the match, Jelly trained rigorously at WWE’s Performance Center, where he lost significant weight, shedding over 230 pounds. According to him, his motivation was rooted in believing in himself and wanting to be part of a special moment. As a lifelong wrestling fan, Jelly aims to bring value to the business without taking anything away from established superstars.
Jelly Roll’s SummerSlam debut has generated buzz, with many fans praising his enthusiasm and energy. The performance marked an exciting new chapter for the WWE newcomer, as he continues to chase his dreams in the world of professional wrestling.
