Neither WWE nor Travis Scott has publicly commented on the current status of their relationship, but there are rumors and mixed messages everywhere. The multi-platinum rapper was featured very prominently in some key moments earlier this year, but he hasn’t actually made a new appearance in months. Many insiders have been claiming for the last week that he’s no longer welcome, but Cody Rhodes seemed to imply something else entirely during a recent media appearance.
There’s a lot here. So, let’s just back up and tell the story from the beginning. Travis Scott made a surprise appearance alongside The Rock at Elimination Chamber back in March. They were joined by longtime good guy John Cena who unexpectedly turned heel and seemed to form some kind of Hollywood alliance with the two. They all attacked WWE Champion Cody Rhodes and during the resulting fallout in the ring, Scott slapped Rhodes in the head while he was defenseless and on the ground. It looked particularly bad on television, and there were whispers that he busted the then WWE Champion’s eardrum.
