Travis Scott is legit in the wrestling world and has his beef. The Houston rapper has found himself at the center of WWE drama following his involvement in a shocking incident at Elimination Chamber. The rapper, who made a surprise appearance alongside wrestling icons The Rock and John Cena, played a key role in a brutal attack on WWE Champion Cody Rhodes. The assault left Rhodes with a burst eardrum and significant bruising, sparking widespread backlash from fans and wrestling insiders alike.
Among the critics was WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray, who didn’t mince words when addressing Scott’s actions on Busted Open Radio. “Travis Scott deserves to have his jaw shattered and wired shut,” Bully Ray said. “It’s when a mark in the ring suddenly thinks he’s a pro wrestler and knows what the hell he’s doing. And that mark is Travis Scott.”
Scott, however, isn’t backing down. Why should he? It’s wrestling. The rapper has since responded to the criticism, dismissing Bully Ray’s comments and even hinting at retaliation. While Scott’s future in WWE remains unconfirmed, reports suggest he’s currently undergoing wrestling training, signaling his potential interest in further sports involvement. His unexpected appearance in one of WWE’s most high-profile storylines has already left a lasting impression, for better or worse.
Get this: despite the controversy, Scott has found an ally in The Rock, who has publicly defended him. Speaking at the Elimination Chamber post-show, The Rock praised Scott’s passion for wrestling and his willingness to immerse himself in the culture. “Travis loves pro wrestling. He’s a culture guy,” The Rock said. “He’s already one of the greatest. A GOAT, a legend, an icon. Some just want to enjoy the show, but others want to get involved. Travis deeply wants to be involved.”
