WWE SmackDown has a new residence in USA Network and a new intro song courtesy of Megan Thee Stallion, but the rap artist may have more planned.
SmackDown on USA kicked off in a big way with a Steel Cage Match for the Undisputed Championship but the show first fired off with \"Neva Play\" by Megan Thee Stallion and RM.
Both Michael Cole and Corey Graves put over the new tune during the show on the same program where Cole also made a Steely Dan reference regarding Kevin Owens \"surprise\" tag team partner Ricky Gibson.
An hour into SmackDown, Megan went onto social media to say she should maybe step into the ring now, \"I think it’s finally time I make my debut lol.\"

Megan Thee Stallion already had some pro wrestling ties before this new SmackDown song dropped. Back when she was SmackDown Women\'s Champion, Bianca Belair was shown pictured with the artist and just this year, she and Mercedes Mone were shown together at the Crunchyroll Anime Awards where the TBS Women\'s Champion hoped to get Stallion in the ring \"very soon.\"
Stallion, however, isn\'t the only mainstream pop artist paying tribute to pro wrestling. Weeks back at Lollapalooza in Chicago, Chappell Roan was all decked out in a lucha libre themed set during her performance which prompted an open invite from All Elite Wrestling. Additionally, NWA owner Billy Corgan has typically had a \"pro wrestling skirmish\" go down during his Smashing Pumpkins performance who is currently on tour with Green Day.
