Triple H Thanks Killer Mike for WWE Backlash Theme Song – “Detonator” Set to Rock the Event

Triple H took a moment to shout out ATL rap legend Killer Mike ahead of WWE Backlash, expressing his appreciation for the rapper’s track “Detonator” being chosen as the official theme song.

In a tweet posted just over an hour before the countdown show, Triple H made it clear how much WWE values Killer Mike’s contribution.

“The best sounds come from artists who know and love @WWE. A thank you to ATL legend @KillerMike for adding his song ‘Detonator’ to #WWEBacklash,” Triple H wrote, attaching photos of Killer Mike at past WWE events, including shots of him hyping up the crowd and mingling with WWE stars backstage.

Killer Mike’s “Detonator” is expected to bring some serious heat to tonight’s lineup, which includes John Cena defending his Undisputed WWE Championship against Randy Orton and Becky Lynch challenging Lyra Valkyria for the Women’s Intercontinental Title.
