Jelly Roll Has Epic WWE Summerslam Moment

Jelly Roll checked off a bucket list item by taking down some bad guys in the ring at WWE SummerSlam.

On August 3, the famous country singer unexpectedly joined The Miz and R-Truth in a showdown against Austin Theory and Grayson Waller. The 39-year-old singer walked into the crowd with his friend Machine Gun Kelly, but soon could hear Theory and Waller disparaging him from the ring. When Jelly Roll came out carrying a black folding chair, the crowd at Cleveland Browns Stadium went wild.

Jelly Roll picked up a chair and hit Waller in the back, slamming him to the mat.

The crowd erupted in cheers as the announcer gave the crowd a report of the match.

Jelly Roll grabbed Theory by the throat and lifted him several feet off the ground for an epic chokeslam, followed by a John Cena Five Knuckle Shuffle before exiting in a blaze of glory, after which the country star slammed Theory to the mat.

“Crazy. Tonight I fulfilled a childhood dream in the craziest way ever,” Jerry later wrote to X.

“Amazing. Thank you so much @WWE. It was a great night.”

The country star also performed his new song “Liar” as part of the event.

When Cena realized that Jelly Roll had used his signature move, he yelled at Jelly Roll with an X and went on to informally invite Jelly Roll to do it again.

“I've had the privilege of listening to his music and spending time with him, and know that I'll have a great option as a tag team partner whenever WWE comes to Nashville,” Cena wrote. (Related article: “From prisoner to deputy sheriff”: Jelly Roll receives special honor)
