Popular YouTuber IShowSpeed recently called out WWE Hall of Famer The Undertaker for making him cry as a kid. In the past year, IShowSpeed has become more involved with WWE, making multiple appearances in the promotion.
He first appeared at WWE WrestleMania 40 in Philadelphia, where he debuted to support his friend, influencer-turned-wrestler Logan Paul. However, things didn’t go well for him, as Randy Orton hit him with an RKO through the announcers’ table.
In January 2025, he returned to the Royal Rumble, entering the match in the 8th spot as a last-minute replacement for an injured Akira Tozawa. He initially helped Bron Breakker eliminate Otis, but Breakker then speared him and tossed him out of the ring.
After his Royal Rumble appearance, his moment of taking a spear from Bron Breakker went viral on social media, racking up huge numbers. Recently, The Undertaker praised him on his podcast, Six Feet Under with Mark Calaway. In response, IShowSpeed expressed his excitement but also revealed that The Deadman made him cry in 2008 when he defeated Rey Mysterio.

IShowSpeed recently reacted to The Undertaker’s praise during his livestream. The WWE Hall of Famer had commented on Speed’s viral moment at the Royal Rumble, where Bron Breakker speared him out of the ring. He stated, “That was violent, man. That was violent. I think in 24 hours, it had over 300 million views.”
Speed responded with excitement, saying, “W The Undertaker, bro! W The Undertaker! Chat, I still haven’t forgiven The Undertaker for what he did back in 2008 against Rey Mysterio, bro. He made me cry. He genuinely made me cry. I’m going to be deada** honest. So if I ever see Undertaker, chat, just letting you all know it ain’t going to be too cool. But Undertaker is a legend.”
After the Royal Rumble, IShowSpeed hinted at a possible WWE return, suggesting he would be ready for his next appearance. Many fans speculate that he could attend WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas. Only time will tell if it happens.
