Logan Paul defended his United States Title against LA Knight at the SummerSlam PLE. Unfortunately, after holding the title for almost 300 days, he suffered a heartbreaking loss. He was accompanied on stage by popular singer and rapper Machine Gun Kelly. The rapper shared a shocking incident that happened backstage involving a legendary wrestler.
The name in question is none other than Randy Orton. On Logan Paul‘s Impaulsive podcast, Machine Gun Kelly shared that when he accompanied the former U.S. Champ to the ring, he heard The Viper saying negative things about him. MGK claimed that he confronted the 14-time world champion and his friends were shocked by the reaction.
When Orton denied all the accusations with a lying emoji, the rapper fired back with his own replies. He mentioned that the Legend Killer already had his number saved and told him to check his texts. Furthermore, Machine Gun Kelly claimed that the incident was recorded on camera and requested WWE to release the footage.

It would be interesting to see if Randy Orton responds to these comments, as he has his focus on bigger things. He will have a chance to become a 15-time world champion. He is set to face the World Heavyweight Champion, Gunther, at the Bash in Berlin. It will be intriguing to see whether the Legend Killer can defeat someone like The Ring General in his own country.
