News regarding Patrick Mahomes making an appearance on WWE RAW
As seen during the April 29th 2024 edition of WWE RAW, Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes made an appearance on the show. Mahomes interacted with both Logan Paul and the returning Braun Strowman.
In regards to Mahomes’ segment on the show, Dave Meltzer of F4WOnline.com noted that Mahomes is sponsored by Logan’s Prime hydration drink and discussed what happened…
“There’s actually a reason for all this, which I’ll get to in a second. But when the show started, it was Patrick Mahomes, IShowSpeed, and Logan Paul coming to the building together. He is the biggest star in that city as a babyface, and he’s coming out with heels. Some people were bringing up that this makes no sense because Patrick Mahomes was a total heel on the show, even though he’s a babyface. The reason behind it was because WWE did not book this segment. It was a sponsored segment, that’s why Patrick Mahomes was there because Patrick Mahomes is part of the Prime energy drink that Logan Paul is also a part of. So they basically sponsored the segment and they wanted Logan Paul and Patrick Mahomes to work together in an angle. Everyone’s going, ‘Why would Patrick Mahomes be booked as a heel in Kansas City? WWE is so incredibly stupid.’ But in fact, it was not WWE that was stupid. It was something that the sponsors basically put together.”
“So the idea is that Braun was going to attack Mahomes, which would have turned him heel instantly, but Jey pulled them away because they had no way out of the segment.” (quotes courtesy of WrestlingNews.co)
