00:14While discussing his career, he was officially invited to become a Grand Ole Opry member, and the surprise announcement brought him to tears.
00:22Jelly Roll appeared on the December 10, 2025 edition of the Joe Rogan Experience podcast, an episode which primarily revolved around the singer's dramatic 200-pound weight loss.
00:33During the show, Rogan played a video from country music star Craig Morgan praising the singer, before inviting him to become a member of the prestigious Grand Ole Opry.

01:06Jelly Roll played a major role in WWE programming in 2025, taking part in a memorable SummerSlam match and later appearing as a spectator at Clash in Paris.
01:15He said WWE helped motivate his weight loss after Triple H told him he could have a match if he shed the pounds.
01:24I'm like, Triple H, I gotta do this.
01:27I gotta take a match, bro, Jelly Roll explained.
01:31I was like, I'm going to go lose 100 pounds and come back and take a match.
01:36According to the singer, Triple H told him that if he lost the weight, he would have a home with WWE.
01:42He has since appeared at several WWE events, having dropped from over 500 pounds to under 300 to be able to compete.
