Drew McIntyre & Logan Paul crash ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live’ for pre-WWE SummerSlam brawl

An angle building up WWE SummerSlam went down on late-night TV last night.

Just a couple weeks away from making his WWE in-ring debut, country music star Jelly Roll guest hosted Wednesday night’s edition of “Jimmy Kimmel Live.” His upcoming tag partner Randy Orton was a guest on the show. But seven minutes into the interview, the two were interrupted by their SummerSlam opponents.

Drew McIntyre crashed the show, insulting Jelly Roll by calling him “trailer trash.” A brawl between Orton and McIntyre then broke out and spilled backstage. Logan Paul took that opportunity to confront Jelly Roll and bully him by slapping him in the face — but it was Jelly Roll who came out on top after chokeslamming Paul through the talk show’s desk.

Full video of the angle can be watched below:

At Saturday Night’s Main Event last weekend, it was confirmed that Orton & Jelly Roll will face McIntyre & Paul at SummerSlam 2025. The two-night PLE will emanate live from MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey on Saturday, August 2 and Sunday, August 3.

This will be the 40-year-old Jelly Roll’s first match, but he’s a big WWE fan and has made multiple appearances for the company dating back to 2023. Jelly Roll told “The Pat McAfee Show” that, in preparation for this match, he’s been training at the WWE Performance Center training every day for the past few weeks.
