(Kiss 101.7) – Houston rapper Travis Scott has made headlines by announcing his transition into professional wrestling as his full-time career. This declaration follows his controversial involvement in the main event of WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas, where he played a pivotal role in John Cena’s record-setting 17th World Championship victory.
Scott’s interference during the match—pulling the referee out of the ring and distracting Cody Rhodes—sparked significant backlash from wrestling fans who felt his actions disrupted the event’s climax. Despite the criticism, WWE officials, including Paul “Triple H” Levesque and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, have embraced Scott’s deeper involvement, signaling a fusion of pop culture and wrestling entertainment.
In a post-event statement, Scott expressed his commitment to wrestling, stating, “I DONT WANT A RECEIPT. I WANT BLOOOODDD AFTER JACKBOYS 2. I NEEEEEDDD THAT.” This indicates his intention to continue his wrestling endeavors following the release of his upcoming compilation album, “JackBoys 2,” set for release on April 30, 2025.
While traditional wrestling fans remain skeptical, Scott’s crossover into WWE represents a bold move that blurs the lines between music and sports entertainment. As he embeds himself further into the wrestling world, audiences can anticipate more appearances and storylines involving the rapper-turned-wrestler.
