At WWE SummerSlam 2024, Machine Gun Kelly accompanied Logan Paul to the ring. Paul lost the United States Championship at LA Knight at this PLE.
During an interview on Logan’s Impaulsive podcast, MGK revealed that he confronted Orton before SummerSlam:
“I’m a very shy dude, but my defense is so high because the offense seems always so against me. It’s like when I was in the ring, just coming to say what’s up to Logan and see what we could work out for the show, and I saw Randy Orton.
I remember seeing Randy Orton talk sh*t about me. I was like, there’s a point where I’m like I’m gonna practice a new version of myself. Then three, two, one, I’m like f*ck that. ‘Hey, man, f*ck you.’ Yeah.
I remember all my boys were sitting there like (looking around). Is this part of the script? I don’t know what’s happening.
But the amount of people that pin me as the aggressor in every situation that I’m in are so wrong. I do nothing but commit myself to art. The art of me standing or existing makes people furious.”

After this, Orton tweeted a Lying Face Emoji and tagged MGK in the tweet. This led to MGK replying:
“You have my number, and you know why you have it btw but I won’t even put you on blast for that. Check your texts. Camera’s were rolling tell WWE put that out.”
According to Fightful Select, there is no footage to support MGK’s claims about his alleged incident with Orton, and no one in WWE seems to have heard of it before MGK’s appearance on Impaulsive.
It’s being assumed that MGK may have been working an angle, as people around him noted that he appeared to be having fun.
Additionally, Fightful reported that those who asked Orton about the situation were told directly that it never happened.
