Jelly Roll: Pat McAfee & I Had No Business at WrestleMania
Jelly Roll had a simple mission heading into WrestleMania 42, and he delivered on it in spectacular fashion.
The country music star appeared in a post-show vlog from his suite at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, reflecting on a night that saw him drop an elbow through an announce table onto Pat McAfee during the main event. Jelly Roll was in Cody Rhodes' corner for the WWE Championship match against Randy Orton, while McAfee sided with Orton after turning heel.
"I had one goal tonight and I kind of succeeded," Jelly Roll said in the vlog. "Pat, I love you, man. Neither one of us had any business here."
The sequence unfolded when Rhodes threw McAfee onto the announce table, setting the stage for Jelly Roll to run from a neighboring table and deliver a leaping elbow drop that shattered the table entirely. McAfee was carted out on a stretcher, though he was spotted later that evening at a concert, neck brace and all.
In the vlog, Jelly Roll joked about a photo of himself levitating over McAfee during the impact. "There's going to be a picture of me somewhere levitating over Pat McAfee and I'm going to have to frame it," he said.
The night also drew praise from Jelly Roll for the broader show, calling the Oba Femi segment involving Brock Lesnar "one of the more emotional surprises of the night" and describing the six-man ladder match as a standout.
