The prestigious annual wrestling show, scheduled for Aug. 3 in Cleveland, will feature two songs by Jelly Roll: „Dead End Road” from his album; Twisters and his latest hit „Liar.”

Levesque’s social media announcement included a hint of a possible live show. „Excited to have my friend Jelly roll back with two official #summerslam theme songs: 'Dead End Road’ off Twisters: The Album and 'Lier’ from his album out this fall.”

He added, „btw, @JellyRoll615 – let me know if you’re free on Aug. 3 to play some songs at @WWEUniverse,” he tweeted, leaving fans speculating about the musician’s in-person appearance.

This isn’t Jelly Roll’s first association with WWE.

The Nashville native made several surprise appearances at WWE events in his hometown, most memorably in a November 2023 match between wrestlers Randy Orton and Dominic Mysterio, where he pushed Mysterio and JD McDonagh after they confronted him outside the ring.

„I felt like I was supporting my boy,” Jelly Roll said at the time.

It’s the latest addition to Jelly Roll’s ever-growing list of accomplishments, with the country superstar recently working closely with Eminem on „Somebody Save Me” on the rapper’s latest album. The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grace).

Jelly Roll shared about working with Rob Godd, „I’ve always said that my childhood heroes lived somewhere between Willie Nelson and Eminem.”

“As a youngster (even today) I could sing every song Slim Shady Album, The Marshall Mathers Album and The Eminem Show. When I got out of jail at 17 and was sneaking into cybers and wars in Nashville, they would play the 'Lose Yourself’ beat when I came on stage in freestyle battles.

„I related to every word that Eminem wrote. I understood him and felt like he understood me, which I spent most of my life feeling misunderstood.
