Jelly Roll is an avid WWE fan, and over the past few years, he has made sporadic appearances on TV. He has even performed in the ring, besides having a physical altercation against JD McDonagh and Dominik Mysterio on RAW in 2023. Last year at SummerSlam, he got in the ring and helped The Miz and R-Truth beat up A-Town Down Under.
Tonight on SmackDown, Jelly Roll was in the middle of his performance when Logan Paul interrupted him to launch a verbal assault. However, Orton came out to support Roll. Drew McIntyre took advantage of this and hit Orton with a Claymore. Following this, Paul continued to assault Orton until the People's Choice Award winner stepped in.

Sunil admires former world champions AJ Styles, Will Ospreay, and Kenny Omega for their ability to consistently deliver great matches as well as entertain crowds with their mic skills.
If ever given a chance to change a storyline, Sunil would have booked Roman Reigns to end The Undertaker’s WrestleMania streak instead of Brock Lesnar. According to him, The Tribal Chief needed the victory more than Brock Lesnar, as the latter was already an established performer when he defeated ‘Taker. He would’ve also made that as Taker’s final match.
