WWE continues to secure its ties with hip-hop artists, as Sexyy Red made a surprise appearance on Monday’s (Oct. 7) episode of “WWE Raw.”

With no prior announcements of her participation, the crowd was shocked to see the “U My Everything” hitmaker kicking off the show in the ring.

Sexyy previously appeared in an episode of “WWE NXT” in May and hosted “NXT Battleground.” Today (Oct. 8), she is scheduled to perform on a new episode of “NXT” in her hometown of St. Louis. Triple H, the WWE’s CCO, took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to share a photo with the rapper, promoting her upcoming appearance. See the related posts below. 

The company has also collaborated with Cardi B, who helped them announce SummerSlam 2025, and Travis Scott, who will promote WrestleMania 41. This past weekend, Metro Boomin, Lil Baby, Quavo, and other hip-hop stars and executives attended WWE Bad Blood 2024 in Atlanta, Georgia.

Last month, “SmackDown” debuted a new logo and intro featuring Megan The Stallion’s track "Neva Play," with RM from BTS. After WWE shared the opening clip on social media, Megan hinted at making her debut in the ring, writing, “I think it’s finally time I make my debut lol.”
