LOGAL PAUL had a little help from streamer IShowSpeed as he retained his belt at WrestleMania 40.
The YouTuber-turned-wrestler faced Randy Orton and Kevin Owens and successfully defended his United States Championship.

But he had IShowSpeed to thank as it was the 19-year-old’s intervention which saved the day.
With Paul flattened and Orton moving in for the kill, Paul was dragged from the ring by a Prime bottle mascot.
Orton then left the ring to square up to the Prime bottle, who was revealed to be IShowSpeed.
The influencer grimaced at the WWE icon and then began barking like a dog in his direction.
Orton, 44, responded by launching an attack on Speed, kicking him to the ground before performing an RKO on the commentary table.
But the intervention played a crucial role as Paul was given time to recover before throwing Orton out of the ring.
The 29-year-old ended the contest with a frogsplash on Owens, who had initially teamed up with Orton before a betrayal saw a triple threat play out.
It extends Paul’s tenure holding the US gold that began back in November last year following a win over veteran Rey Mysterio.
IShowSpeed later took to X to show he was feeling the damage from his WWE debut.
The YouTuber posed alongside Paul backstage in a neck brace and had a rather glum look on his face as Paul stood proudly with his belt.
