John Cena’s heel turn at Elimination Chamber was arguably one of the biggest moments in WWE history, and The Rock and Travis Scott were by Cena’s side as he destroyed Cody Rhodes. Travis Scott also got in on the action at one point when he slapped Cody Rhodes in the face.
The Wrestling Observer Newsletter reports that the slap legitimately broke Cody’s eardrum, and left him with a black eye. It’s being said that there was all kinds of heat backstage because of that with people noting that Travis Scott shouldn’t have been out there, or put in that position in the first place.
It appears that we could be seeing more of Travis Scott on WWE programming in the future as it was recently reported that Scott has been training inside the ring. The Rock also teased during the Elimination Chamber post-show press conference that Travis Scott could potentially wrestle at some point.
“Yes, absolutely. That’s why we’re doing it. Long gaming. I love Travis. That’s my guy. Where we have expanded to in WWE, I feel like professional wrestling has always found its unique place in culture throughout the decades. We remember Rock N Wrestling, Cyndi Lauper, Hulk Hogan, we remember the Attitude Era. Pro wrestling has had its place in culture for some time. I think we are tapping in to a unique time now, I’m not quite sure what we name this era, we’ll all figure it out. Someone will come up with something cool, I’ll say it and take credit for it.”
“I feel like with Travis, he loves the business and loves pro wrestling. He’s a culture guy. Travis Scott is one of the greatest already, of all time. He’s a GOAT, a legend, an icon, he loves the business. We get guys and girls like that who want to come in and who are already tapping into the culture and disrupting culture in their own cool way. They want to come in, have fun at the show. Maybe they want to sit and enjoy or be on camera. But some want to get involved.”
