The TKO group wants to explore adding musical segments to its PLEs.
Indeed, WrestleVotes confirms that TKO was determined to stage a musical performance at Sunday Night’s Main Event. As noted by Catch-Newz, rapper Quavo will sing and debut an original song to kick off the show.
The idea is to test the reception to potentially incorporate a musical segment for each PLE. The TKO group aims to enhance the overall fan experience both onsite and on television. The upcoming Sunday Night’s Main Event would thus serve as a pilot launch.
The long-term vision is comparable to halftime performances at major sporting events like the NFL’s Super Bowl. The TKO group is looking to have a musical show that could become an additional attraction within the wrestling show.
This isn’t WWE’s first attempt at testing this possibility. In the Vince McMahon era, the company enjoyed featuring a musical performance during WrestleMania or certain PLEs. It remains to be seen what the outcome will be in 2026.
