In the past few days, IShowSpeed, whose real name is Darren Watkins Jr., has been commanding the headlines and social buzz thanks to an anticipated deep push into the WWE universe. On October 12, 2025, Speed shared an Instagram Story from the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, decked out in WWE gear and clutching a clapperboard labeled “Speed Goes Pro,” boldly signaling a new chapter for the viral streamer. This particular post set off a wildfire of speculation and discussion among fans and wrestling insiders, many interpreting the selfie as more than just a publicity stunt—it looks to be the launch of a tactile crossover between social media celebrity and professional wrestling, with Speed potentially prepping for a greater in-ring role according to Fightful Select and covered by outlets like SportsTiger and ClutchPoints.
Adding fuel to this excitement, reports indicate that Speed’s collaboration with WWE isn’t limited to cameos or comedic interference. He’s apparently been working closely with legend Randy Orton on the new series—with Orton set to feature prominently in upcoming episodes—and there's even buzz about Orton’s involvement helping shepherd Speed through the training process. While WWE is officially open to Speed making his in-ring debut, sources clarify there’s not yet a confirmed match on the docket, so whether we witness Speed lacing up his boots for a bout is still up in the air. Nevertheless, the visibility of this team-up and Speed’s willingness to plunge himself into the world of wrestling suggest potentially lasting biographical significance, as a successful transition could redefine the way influencers interact with traditional sports entertainment.
This WWE collaboration is only the latest in Speed’s streak of viral cross-industry moments. Since bursting onto the WWE scene at WrestleMania 40 in 2024 with a Prime energy drink bottle cameo—where Randy Orton delivered a now-iconic RKO—and a surprise entry in this year’s Royal Rumble, Speed’s WWE ventures have generated staggering viewer metrics, with the RKO spectacle reportedly racking up over 100 million aggregated views. Just this past August, Speed closed out his crazy “Speed Does America Tour” and premiered “Speed Goes Pro” at the Los Angeles Coliseum, drawing star power from the likes of Justin Bieber, Kim Kardashian, Suni Lee, and more. The freshly premiered series has already amassed millions of views with guest appearances by NFL luminary Tom Brady and Olympic stars.
Social media analytics add more context: Speed’s Instagram engagement metrics are off the charts, showing a recent 6.71 percent growth rate, averaging around 5.6 million likes per post and nearly 39 million followers, making him one of the top influencers globally for October 2025, as per HypeAuditor. His financials reflect this public fervor, with monthly Instagram earnings estimated between $236,000 and $324,000, on a steady upward trajectory.
Even as rumors swirl, most outlets agree the WWE angle is less a fleeting stunt and more likely a meaningful career pivot for Speed, especially if an actual match materializes. Fans and media insiders are on high alert for his next move, with talk of Speed possibly joining WWE full time cropping up repeatedly—though this remains speculation awaiting official confirmation. For now, Speed's frenetic rise from Internet meme to global phenomenon continues unabated, each new project seemingly bigger than the last, poised to further blur the boundaries between influencer culture and mainstream sport.
