The Grammy-nominated rapper was in attendance at Clash in Paris!
In the main event of the Clash in Paris PLE, which concluded last Sunday at La Defense Arena in Paris, France, Seth Rollins defended the World Heavyweight title in a fatal four-way match against CM Punk, Jey Uso, and LA Knight.
When it seemed as if Punk was going to land the second GTS and pin Rollins, Women’s IC Champion and Rollins’ wife, Becky Lynch appeared, landing a low blow to Punk and aiding Rollins win. After the win, Rollins and Becky had a brief ‘jawjack’ with Post Malone and Jelly Roll, who were in the front row.
Post Malone wants to settle the beef at the Grandest Stage
The brief interaction between the two sparked speculations online, and now, in a recent interview, the Grammy-nominated rapper has confirmed that the exchange has turned into a beef, which he wants to settle at the ‘Grandest Stage’.
In an interview with GQ, Malone revealed that the exchange at Clash in Paris has now turned into “beef,” and then issued a direct challenge to Rollins for WrestleMania 42, which is set for Saturday, April 1,8, and Sunday, April 19, 2026, at Allegiant Stadium in Paradise, Nevada.
“I think me and Seth Rollins got beef – you can put that on paper, too. Me, Seth Rollins. WrestleMania 2026. Come on, baby,” Malone said.
Malone also admitted that he had always wanted to wrestle and that if he had taken a different career path, he would have loved to be a WWE Superstar.
“I’ve always wanted to do that. I figured if I had a different musculature and different career path, I would love to have been a WWE wrestler.”
In recent times, WWE has seen significant success with celebrity involvement in recent years, featuring standout appearances from stars like Travis Scott, Bad Bunny, and Jelly Roll. The latter two even stepped into the ring for a match.
A clash between Post Malone and Seth Rollins could mark another major celebrity crossover moment that too on the ‘Grandest Stage’.
Malone is currently in the middle of a global tour and was in Paris last Sunday to debut his new clothing brand, Austin Post, a label both named after him and designed to reflect his personal style.
