A platinum award-winning rapper has expressed interest in stepping into WWE and specifically wants to share a moment on-screen with Randy Orton.
Tekashi 6ix9ine made the comments during a May 13 Kick livestream in Miami involving Jake Paul and Logan Paul. During the stream, Jake Paul called Logan on the phone while 6ix9ine was present, opening the door for the rapper to pitch the idea of appearing in WWE.
“I want to make an entrance in WWE,” 6ix9ine said during the livestream before specifically bringing up Orton’s Punt Kick.
The rapper explained that he wanted to take the move on television and claimed he could handle it after previously being kicked in the head during a gym altercation. Logan Paul responded by saying he would see what he could do internally within WWE.
“Let me talk to my colleagues and see if I can get you involved,” Logan replied.
The connection between 6ix9ine and the Paul brothers is not new. The rapper previously accompanied Jake Paul for his ring walk ahead of a boxing match against Anthony Joshua in December 2025. Logan Paul has been a regular WWE performer since 2023 and most recently competed at WrestleMania 42 earlier this year.
Would WWE Have Tekashi 6ix9ine Make An Appearance?
Whether WWE would actually move forward with a 6ix9ine appearance remains uncertain, particularly given the rapper’s controversial background. 6ix9ine, whose real name is Daniel Hernandez, pleaded guilty in 2019 to federal racketeering and weapons charges connected to the Nine Trey Gangsters street gang before later cooperating with authorities. He completed his sentence in 2020.
Despite his mainstream popularity and multiple platinum-certified records, he has never previously appeared for WWE.
