Travis Scott came through and destroyed the building on WWE Raw. The beloved wrestling series made its Netflix debut on Monday, and Scott was among the celebrities in attendance. Unlike O’Shea Jackson, Jr. or Macaulay Culkin, however, the rapper participated in the wrestling event. He pulled up, smoked a blunt, and even chatted with Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. The highlight of Travis Scott’s appearance, though, came when he was documenting his arrival to WWE on Instagram, and treated fans to the new Monday Night RAW theme song.
Travis Scott was single-handedly responsible for one of the highlights of evening. The rapper entered the arena with a belt around his shoulder. Before fans could see him, however, the lights cut off and the song “FEIN” played through the speakers. Synth leads dominate the first few seconds, before Travis Scott’s signature vocals register. WWE fans who follows Scott on Instagram, however, were treated to a snippet of a new song. The song is titled “4X4,” and the rapper played a huge chunk of it on Instagram Live.
Travis Scott Walked Out With WWE Superstar Jimmy Uso
The WWE announcers confirmed “4X4” will be the theme song for Monday Night RAW moving forward. Travis Scott is a life long wrestling fan, which makes complete sense given his desire to collaborate with WWE. He didn’t perform any music, but the rapper has a lot of experience when it comes to teasing new music using wrestling as a platform. Scott did just that during an episode of SmackDown in October. Travis Scott didn’t appear on the episode, but he was name dropped by WWE superstar Jimmy Uso.
Uso went for a ride for Roman Reigns during a segment, and when he gushed about how he had never heard the Travis Scott song Reigns played. Reigns in turn, revealed that he had a special connection with Scott. “It ain’t out yet,” the wrestler told a shocked Jimmy Uso. Fittingly, Scott walked out with Jimmy’s brother, Jey, shortly after he debuted “4X4” to fans on Instagram Live. The rapper’s decision to smoke on television generated some controversy, but it’s clear that he could care less. Hopefully we get a CDQ version of “4X4” sooner than later.
