Rapper Lil Yachty Wants to Join WWE as a Manager

Lil Yachty might be stepping into the WWE Universe for real—and he’s putting Nick Khan on notice.

While appearing on the Impaulsive podcast on January 20, 2026, the rapper made it clear he’s serious about joining WWE if the opportunity presents itself. And not only does he want in—he already knows his role.

“I’m always like, man, I don’t think I’d ever want to wrestle. I’d want to be a manager, because I’m really good on the microphone. I’m good off the spot. I can talk.”

Yachty doubled down on his passion for pro wrestling, making it very clear that he’s not just a casual fan—he’s locked in on everything happening across WWE.

“Not only do I love it, but I’m so up to date and so into every storyline. You could throw me in at any point, anywhere, and I know I could lock in.”

Then, in true Yachty fashion, he went straight to the top, calling out WWE CEO Nick Khan with a confident pitch. And just in case anyone thought he wasn’t willing to take a hit, he made it clear he would take a chair shot to the back.

“I’m going to make my way. Hey, Nick—Nick, if you’re watching this… he’s watching, he’ll be watching. All right, give me a shot. Let me get a 10-day contract. Let me show you what I can do, and then you decide. I’ll take a chair shot to the back.”

This isn’t the first time Yachty’s flirted with WWE. Back in January 2025, he made headlines for sitting with Xavier Woods’ family at Monday Night Raw, where Pat McAfee shouted him out live on air and teased a future appearance. At the time, Yachty said anything was possible—but now, he’s actively campaigning.
