IShowSpeed has opened up about his time training at the WWE Performance Center, offering fans a closer look at his involvement in the upcoming Speed Goes Pro series.
The wildly popular streamer has crossed paths with WWE before, including taking a memorable RKO from Randy Orton at WrestleMania last year and entering the Royal Rumble earlier this year.
IShowSpeed recently spent more time at the Performance Center working with WWE stars such as Sheamus and Randy Orton. The duo joined Drew McIntyre, Cathy Kelley, and Chelsea Green for the official launch party of Speed Goes Pro, the newest project showcasing Speed testing himself in professional-level environments.
A new trailer for the WWE episode features an emotional Speed reflecting on the significance of being inside a WWE ring. When Sheamus asks him, “Are you a fan of WWE?”, Speed opens up about how deep the connection runs.

“I watched that my whole life. Since my childhood. I started watching that when I was 8 years old,” Speed said, recalling the early days of watching wrestling with his younger brother. He added that they would spend hours watching Jeff Hardy and Rey Mysterio pull off breathtaking high-flying moves.
“Me and my little brother used to just watch 20 minute video highlights of Jeff Hardy, Rey Mysterio just high-flying from the top rope,” he explained.
For Speed, stepping into the Performance Center is more than a content opportunity, it’s a lifelong dream becoming reality. “I’m literally living the dream right now. I’m literally living my dream.”
Alongside his WWE ventures, Speed is also celebrating a major career milestone. At this year’s Esports Awards, the streamer took home the 2025 Streamer of the Year award, cementing his place as one of the most influential creators in the world.
