Update on Travis Scott in WWE
Added 2025-03-02 17:05:20 +0000 UTCTravis Scott has had a number one hit single this year, and is part of one of the biggest wrestling angles of all-time, and it's been in the works for a while.
Scott and WWE have had a recurring partnership in recent months. Scott was presented with a new Hardcore Title, and his single "4x4" is WWE Raw's theme. He also appeared on the WWE Raw on Netflix premiere with Jey Uso.
We'd noted in January that WWE was expecting to do more with Scott, but it goes far deeper than just that. Those that we talked to in WWE say that most in the company didn't know that he'd be involved in this angle as of that time, but that they've since heard that in mid-January wheels were already in motion to have him included in a "major angle."
The Rock answered a question regarding Scott possibly wrestling, and he said it is a possibility. Fightful Select has since learned that Scott has been doing wrestling training, with one source saying that it was at a WWE Legend's wrestling school. There have been discussions to have Scott work matches in the future. We don't have a time table on when that could occur.

A simple promo would have explained the "sage" gimmick to the uninformed.

2025-03-03 16:23:35 +0000 UTCWe could say the same thing about Timothy chalamet but if he was in the background just kind of hanging out that would be weird as well.

2025-03-02 20:08:30 +0000 UTCIt gives WWE additional media coverage, particularly on social media.

2025-03-02 19:27:04 +0000 UTCIt was awkward, for sure. At times it seemed like Cena/Rock were trying to direct him to where he needed to be. But the dude is super popular to a mainstream demographic that could help draw more attention to WWE.

2025-03-02 18:42:51 +0000 UTCi don't disagree but just because you haven't heard of him doesn't mean he isn't massively popular. He is more popular than every wrestler in the company

2025-03-02 18:20:47 +0000 UTCI have never even heard of this dude and he added nothing to that segment. So why was he there? To stroke his own ego?

2025-03-02 17:56:42 +0000 UTCCould we guess that the legends school is booker t since Travis is from Houston and Bookers school is in Houston?
