To promote the launch of
WWE Smackdown moving to Fox in October,
Fightful reports that Eminem has come to a deal to appear on an episode of the show sometime in 2019.
It is unclear what his role will be but the company will even produce their own championship belt for the rapper. This will, of course, be his first appearance on WWE programming.
Hip-Hop and professional wrestling have had an interesting relationship. The first rapper that comes to mind is
Snoop Dogg who has been on
WWE Raw on a couple of occasions.
Rick Ross, Diddy, Wiz Khalifa, MGK and others have also taken the leap.
In addition to that, Em will also have his music on the soundtrack for the next annual WWE 2K game which is expected for an October release. No word yet on if it will be an exclusive song or a previously released cut.
