Musical performance to open WWE Sunday Night’s Main Event

Rapper Quavo, who is from the Atlanta area, will be kicking off this weekend’s WWE event in his hometown.

WWE announced today that a musical performance by Quavo will open Sunday Night’s Main Event at State Farm Arena on September 6. The show begins at 8 p.m. Eastern time and will air live on Peacock in the United States. Outside of the US, it’s being streamed on YouTube.

Quavo, best known for being part of the hip-hop group Migos, is set to perform one of the songs from his upcoming solo album. He is a WWE fan and has made a couple of appearances for the company before.

• As first announced by Complex, Hip Hop Superstar Quavo will open Sunday Night’s Main Event in his hometown of Atlanta, performing an unreleased track off his upcoming album QROMELIFE, due out on all platforms soon.
• A lifelong fan of WWE, Quavo has made appearances at WWE Day 1, where his group Migos’ song ‘Straightenin’ was the official theme song for the PLE, took in WWE Bad Blood at ringside alongside Lil Yachty, and Yeeted alongside ‘Main Event’ Jey Uso on Raw in January of 2025.

Rap will have a big influence on Sunday’s show with Lil Yachty set to compete against Baron Corbin. The match is Lil Yachty’s official in-ring debut, though he’s been around WWE for months as the manager of Trick Williams. If Yachty survives five minutes against Corbin, Williams earns a United States Championship rematch against Corbin that same night.
