IShowSpeed broke a WWE protocol during his clash with Randy Orton at WrestleMania 40.

Speed appeared at WrestleMania 40 to help Logan Paul in his triple threat match against Orton and Kevin Owens for the WWE United States Championship.

He arrived at the Lincoln Financial Field in a Prime suit as he helped his pal beat Orton and Owens to win the triple threat showdown.

But the 19-year-old's showing at WrestleMania 40 came at a price as he was put through a table by 'The VIper' in an incredible moment.

In trademark fashion, the streamer barked in the face of Orton, who responded by kicking him over before taking of his Prime suit.

From there, the WWE star lifted Speed on top of a table before performing his signature RKO move.

However, during their interaction, Speed broke a WWE protocol.

He could be heard swearing, dropping the F-bomb on multiple occasions, which were bleeped out on the broadcast.

Swear words are banned on all WWE shows since they are all rated PG.


Orton hit Owens with an RKO and seemed on course to win the match but Paul ran in just in time to send him out so he could hit the frog splash to score the pinfall to defend his title.

Speaking after the match, Triple H hailed Paul's showing in the ring at WrestleMania 40.

"I congratulate Logan Paul on another epic outing," he said.

"You get in the ring with Randy Orton and Kevin Owens, and you put on that kind of performance, whether you walk out as champion or you don't what a performance.

"[He's] just a guy that every time he goes out there, he proves why his choice to be here in the WWE and not be doing the other things he was before have sort of cemented him as a WWE superstar. He's so good."
