WWE Ran Out Of Patience With Travis Scott

Travis Scott WWE Title

Travis Scott won’t be wrestling in WWE.

After performing on Monday Night Raw’s Netflix premiere, Travis Scott joined The Rock in the ring at Elimination Chamber as Cody Rhodes refused to sell The Great One his soul. As the world knows, John Cena then turned heel by attacking Rhodes, with Scott also getting in on the action.

Following the show, it was reported that Scott had heat backstage after rupturing Rhodes’ eardrum and giving him a black eye.

However, despite the high-profile spot, Scott and The Rock then disappeared from television. While The Rock later explained that he felt the story didn’t need him, it was reported that Scott was training behind the scenes before making his in-ring debut.

This idea was solidified when Scott helped Cena win the Undisputed WWE Championship at WrestleMania 41. But it was recently reported that WWE had dropped all plans for Travis Scott as he “wasn’t a quick learner” for the business.

Travis Scott Lacked Focus

Writing in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer suggested that a lack of commitment was behind Scott’s failure to get up to speed. He noted that Scott was trying to work on too many projects at once, and although this was initially accommodated, things changed.

“He doesn’t like to commit to anything. He goes half-in and tries other projects at the same time. And since he’s a personal client of Ari, everyone tried to accommodate until it just became too much to deal with.”

By contrast, Jelly Roll recently revealed that he’s been training at the WWE Performance Center on a daily basis for around four weeks after quietly moving to Orlando, Florida. He added that he’s been working hard alongside coach Matt Bloom and did a three-hour in-ring workout with Jacob Fatu.

The Undertaker, Michelle McCool, and Kevin Owens have also been among the WWE stars to help him out.

The star is set to team with Randy Orton to face Drew McIntyre and Logan Paul at SummerSlam.
