Jelly Roll went through an announcer's table at SummerSlam 2025 on Aug. 2. He also nearly won the match. But in the end, the Nashville country music star was pinned by Logan Paul to end his first major WWE event. Jelly Roll, whose name is Jason DeFord, started strong after being sucker punched by Paul before their tag team match started.

Jelly Roll put in a strong effort and had the fans on his side, but he ultimately came up short in his WWE in-ring debut.

When country music superstar Jelly Roll steps into a WWE ring at SummerSlam tomorrow night, it will be more than just a one-off celebrity appearance. A new report from WrestleVotes reveals the Grammy-nominated artist has been undergoing intensive training for his debut, and WWE has hopes for a long-term partnership.
