Will Jelly Roll Have a Match at WrestleMania This Year?

Country music superstar, Jelly Roll, is no stranger to WWE, even having a match last year. It's possible that he has his first WrestleMania match this year, and here's why.

As a massive fan of professional wrestling and someone who has actually done a little work in the business for several years, I watch WWE religiously. Without pulling the curtain back, I watch things with a different eye than most fans do, and do a lot of fantasy booking. WWE is currently in a little bit of a pickle with injuries ahead of the biggest event of the year, WrestleMania. Could Jelly Roll save the day? I wouldn't rule it out!

WWE Injuries Ahead of WrestleMania

There's a big storyline going on right now with a group in the WWE known as "The Vision. It all started with Seth Rollins and Paul Heyman. Then two newer superstars who are dubbed "the future" of the business, Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed, joined the group. This is where I'm going to give you the Spark Notes version of this storyline. Seth Rollins went down with an injury in October. Following that, Breakker and Reed turned on Rollins. You can see that in the clip below:

Not long after this moment, YouTube sensation and current WWE Superstar Logan Paul joined The Vision. However, during that time, a masked man would come in and interfere in their matches to help the team win. The masked man would perform Seth Rollins' Stomp on his victims, making you wonder, is that Seth? It couldn't be. In fact, it was none other than Austin Theroy, who would align himself with The Vision.

Everything after that was going according to plan for The Vision. Breakker was on his way to a big spotlight ahead of WrestleMania. Then, another masked man shattered The Vision's plans. This time, the masked assailant was stomping the members of The Vision.

After the Royal Rumble in January, Bronn Breakker went out with a hernia injury. This week, Bronson Reed tore his bicep. These were real injuries that completely changed what was going to happen leading up to WrestleMania. So, how can The Vision's story continue into the spotlight at the biggest stage of them all? Well, here's where fantasy booking and Jelly Roll come into play.

Will Jelly Roll Wrestle at WrestleMania 42?

If you recall, last year, Jelly Roll aligned himself with Randy Orton to take on the team of Drew McEntire and Logan Paul at SummerSlam. Orton and Jelly Roll lost that match, but Jelly Roll gained a lot of respect for his work inside the ring. It was even documented on WWE's Netflix series, Unreal.

So, how could this all tie into The Vision and WrestleMania? Here are my thoughts. We still don't know who this new masked man is who's attacking The Vision. There's some rumbling that Seth Rollins might be good to go by WrestleMania. Let's say that he is the masked man and is taking out his revenge on The Vision. The group is now down to two men, Logan Paul and Austin Theory. Many people are speculating that Bad Bunny, who also had a few matches in the WWE, could be thrown into this story. However, I feel like that's a little bit of a reach for everything to make sense.

If Rollins is indeed the masked man, he's going to need some backup to challenge The Vision. Who better to back him up than a man who already has a beef with Logan Paul? That man is Jelly Roll! Seth Rollins and Jelly Roll versus Logan Paul and Austin Theory at WrestleMania is a "money match." He's openly said that he'd love to get in the ring again and to have a match at WrestleMania; why would he pass that opportunity up? Unless he already has tour dates booked.

Jelly Roll will be embarking on two different tours this year. The first of which is The Big Ass Stadium Tour with Post Malone, and he'll also be doing his own thing on a separate tour called The Little Ass Shed Tour.

WrestleMania 42 will take place on April 18 and 19, 2026, at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada. If you take a look at the tour dates in the post above, those days are wide open for Jelly Roll. I'm not saying that this is a prediction or a spoiler, but if you want this storyline to continue and it to make sense, this would work. Not to mention, it will bring more outside star power to WrestleMania, which means more eyes on the product. Will Jelly Roll wrestle at the biggest show of the year? I wouldn't rule it out, but I suppose we'll have to wait and see!
