Rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine has expressed interest in appearing in WWE, saying during a Kick livestream that he wants to take Randy Orton’s Punt Kick and that Logan Paul told him he would look into making it happen.
The comments came on May 13 during Jake Paul’s IRL livestream in Miami. When Jake Paul put Logan Paul on the phone, 6ix9ine made his pitch directly.
“I want to make an entrance in WWE, but I’m so controversial and, like, I got so much —-,” he said. “Not RKO. What’s that —- by Randy Orton when he gets kicked in the head — I’m only [talking about] kicking the head. I got punted in the gym, so it’s like regular —-, like I can handle it. I ain’t get knocked out.”
Logan Paul responded that he would reach out internally. “Let me talk to my colleagues and see if I can get you involved.”
The connection between 6ix9ine and the Paul brothers is not new. In December 2025, 6ix9ine walked Jake Paul to the ring for his boxing match against Anthony Joshua in Miami.
Logan Paul has been a full-time WWE performer since 2023 and competed at WrestleMania earlier this year. His brother Jake has worked alongside 6ix9ine at multiple events and included him on the guest list for the May 13 Kick stream alongside other artists and personalities.
Whether WWE would move forward with an appearance from 6ix9ine is an open question. He acknowledged his own controversy as a potential obstacle. 6ix9ine, whose real name is Daniel Hernandez, pleaded guilty in 2019 to federal racketeering and weapons charges following his arrest alongside members of the Nine Trey Gangsters street gang. He cooperated with federal authorities and was released from prison onto home confinement in April 2020, completing his sentence that August. He has had no previous publicly documented crossover with WWE.
