Jelly Roll provides official theme songs for WWE SummerSlam and teases performance
'Save Me' hitmaker Jelly Roll will provide two official theme songs for 'WWE SummerSlam' and could perform at the huge stadium show.
Jelly Roll will provide the official theme songs for 'WWE SummerSlam' and appears set to perform at the event.
The 'Save Me' hitmaker will have two tracks - 'Dead End Road' from 'Twisters: The Album' and 'Liar' from his upcoming record - connected to the huge show at the Cleveland Browns Stadium on August 3 in Cleveland, Ohio.
WWE boss Paul 'Triple H' Levesque wrote on X, formerly Twitter: "Excited to have my friend Jelly Roll back with two official #SummerSlam theme songs: ‘Dead End Road’ off Twisters: The Album, and ‘Liar’ off his album coming this fall.
"Btw, @JellyRoll615 – let me know if you’re free on Aug. 3 to play a few songs for the @WWEUniverse."
It didn't take long for the 39-year-old musician to respond, and it seems like he will be there in person next month.
He replied: "Sounds like a good time to me, Bubba! I’ll have my people call your people!"
He has worked with WWE before with appearances in his hometown of Nashville, including in November 2023 when he got involved in a match between Randy Orton and Dominik Mysterio.
Back in the music world, he recently collaborated with Eminem on 'Somebody Save Me', which uses the chorus from his own track 'Save Me' and serves as the closer on the hip hop icon's new album 'The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grace)'.
After the LP dropped on Friday (12.07.24), he wrote on Instagram: "As a teenager (and still today) I could recite every song on the 'Slim Shady' album, the 'Marshall Mathers' album and 'The Eminem Show'.
"When I bonded out of jail at 17 years old and was sneaking into cyphers and battles in Nashville they would also play the ‘Lose Yourself’ beat when I came out on stage at the freestyle battles...
“I related to every word Eminem wrote. I understand him and felt like he understood me, which was rare cause I spent most of my life feeling misunderstood.”
