Current WWE champion warns country star Jelly Roll; teases confrontation at SummerSlam

Chart-topping country singer Jelly Roll appeared on WWE RAW in November 2023, where he assisted Randy Orton. The Legend Killer had just made his return the night before at Survivor Series: WarGames, so he was finishing up his issues with The Judgment Day before moving on to Friday Night SmackDown.

Jelly Roll will provide the official theme songs for SummerSlam on August 3, as disclosed by WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H on July 16. As hinted by The Game on social media, perhaps a live performance could take place. His songs ‘Dead End Road’ from Twisters: The Album and ‘Liar’ from his upcoming album will be used for The Biggest Party of the Summer.

This prompted one-half of the World Tag Team Champions, JD McDonagh of The Judgment Day, to send a warning to Jelly Roll. Taking to X, he reminded the artist that he has not forgotten what the latter did to him:

"If he knows what's good for him, @JellyRoll615 will stay as far away from me as he can backstage at #Summerslam. My neck is all healed up now, and even if I can't pick him up, I'll drop a mfer real quick for attacking me when I was injured," JD McDonagh reacted to Triple H's announcement.

As of this writing, World Heavyweight Champion Damian Priest of The Judgment Day will defend his belt on August 3 against Gunther. WWE has also teased Rhea Ripley challenging Women's World Champion Liv Morgan at the event.

Jelly Roll is a huge fan of 14-time WWE World Champion Randy Orton

After his confrontation with The Judgment Day and Randy Orton's involvement in the segment on the November 27, 2023, episode of RAW, Jelly Roll was snagged backstage by Jackie Redmond for an interview.

In a WWE RAW Exclusive, Jelly Roll opened up about his love for Randy Orton, who was the reason he decided to show up on that particular episode of the red brand. Orton had been out of action for a year and a half until the Survivor Series event two days prior:

"It was awesome because Randy Orton’s the reason I came here tonight. Randy Orton was returning, it was my hometown of Nashville, Tennessee. I said, ‘Whatever it takes, we gotta be at the building.’ I just feel like I was backing my boy. Dude, I’m still shaking. When I stood up and everybody cheered, I was like, ‘I’m doing the right thing. I’m not wrong here.’ I just went for it. It was awesome," said Jelly Roll.

Jelly Roll concluded by teasing some unfinished business with The Judgment Day, especially Dominik Mysterio.
