Jelly Roll is a country music superstar, but he’s also drawn attention in other areas of entertainment, like wrestling.
Today (23 July), it’s been announced that Jelly Roll fans can now play as the singer on the video game WWE 2K26, as part of the just-launched Ringside Pass Season 4.
It turns out that the singer is part of the Premium Ringside Pass Season 4 update, which doesn’t just include Jelly Roll but also features tag team royalty, The Hardy Boyz and AAA star Lady Shani. According to a press release, the added players bring “a combined 47 new moves and taunts” with them.
The Liar hitmaker’s relationship with WWE doesn’t begin with the video game.
Jelly Roll is a lifelong fan of WWE and has brought his passion into the ring, making multiple appearances with real-life wrestlers.
He’s participated in a tag-team match with Randy Orton against Drew McIntyre and Logan Paul at last year’s SummerSlam, had a victory over Kit Wilson back in March, and stopped Pat McAfee from interfering in a title match between Randy Orton and Cody Rhodes at this year’s WrestleMania.

The news of Jelly Roll’s addition to the WWE 2K26 game comes just a week after he released the music video for his new single, Hands Up, which was filmed at one of America’s most famous prisons: the San Quentin Rehabilitation Centre.
Text in the video reads:
For many incarcerated men, the journey toward freedom begins long before the prison gates ever open.
San Quentin now offers college classes, career training, restorative justice and re-entry programs designed to prepare people for life beyond prison.
San Quentin’s mission is no longer just to hold people accountable. It is to prepare them to successfully return to their communities.
