IShowSpeed was surprised when he stumbled across an episode of CBS Sports Golazo with Kate Scott, Thierry Henry, Jamie Carragher, and Micah Richards. What started as a casual watch quickly turned into a rage watch when Carragher decided to take a jab at his online name.
Speed was never one to stay silent. He was less than thrilled—and let's just say his reaction was anything but slow.
After facing IShowSpeed in a charity match for Hope and defeating him in the team match, Thierry Henry invited him to CBS Sports Golazo. Jamie Carragher said that Speed's name meant he could run. If Speed had come on the show, he would probably just run. In Carragher's words:
"If he comes on the show, what's he going to do, just run?"
Speed wasn't very happy with the comment and said:
"Bro, what?!? They think I'm stupid, bro nah, nah. Nah, chat. Who is he talking smack?"
As soon as the video went viral, someone (@BrynPicks) took to his X account and commented:
"someone tell him jamie doesn’t like ronaldo"
The internet didn't wait to add a new twist to the mess, mocking that Speed's response could have gone further after he found out Carragher isn't Ronaldo's biggest admirer. With that fact on the table, what began as an easy name pun soon became a spectacle fed by memes.
The moment the clip went onto the internet, fans didn't waste any time making the entire episode a laughing stock. While some were rushing to Speed's defense, some were chuckling at the conversation, and there were some people present just for the sake of creating controversy with outlandish speculations.
So let's begin with the fans' responses.

Some fans treated the whole situation like prime-time entertainment. They joked and turned Carragher's comment into the latest internet spectacle.
While some were eager to see how Speed would respond, half expecting a dramatic rant or a sprinting challenge. others were busy flooding social media with hilarious comments. What started as a simple joke quickly became an entire memefest in true Internet fashion:
"sounds like a spicy situation, wonder what Speed's response will be," a user commented.
"Carra bodied him but still not as much as Bron Breakker did," another user joked.
"Because he was actually rude! Coz why say that?" a netizen expressed.
Then there were some spectators—the ones who sit down, popcorn in hand, roasting everyone involved just for fun... To them it didn’t matter if it was Speed, Carragher, or Henry—everyone was fair.
They dropped one-liners, exaggerated reactions, and turned the whole thing into a comedy special, enjoying the chaos without picking a side:
"jimmy carrot", a user joked.
"Jamie Carragher and Speed ts would be fun," according to a netizen.
"Speed should roast Jamie Carragher hard so he won’t able to insult his Idol," another user joked.
Others were already canvassing for a Jamie-Speed crossover, picturing the pandemonium it would cause. Others held to their original mandate—to make every other second of this epic into sheer comedy:
"Damn i cant wait this crossover," a user joked.
"Carra asking the right question... Everyone is using Speed to gain views and earn money. Speed doesn't know anything about football," according to a netizen.

Whether it leads to a Speed-Carragher clash or simply more online anarchy, one thing's for certain—the internet never fails to take whatever it is and make it into something entertaining.
