“At least no audience members died"—Internet reacts to Travis Scott smoking during WWE Raw Netflix Premiere

Travis Scott recently attended the WWE Raw Netflix Premiere at the Inuit Dome in Los Angeles, California. During the appearance, the singer was spotted smoking a marijuana joint while walking out with Jey Uso with a championship belt swung over his shoulder as Uso walked over to his match with Drew McIntyre.

Travis Scott's action at the stadium has drawn reactions from the internet. One netizen referred to the singer's Astroworld incident, in which dozens of attendees were injured and several died at Travis Scott's festival.

"At least no audience members died during this performance."

Netizens were critical of the rapper as well as WWE and Netflix, pointing out that there were kids present in the arena and they felt that the singer smoking a joint openly violated the PG rating ethics of the show.

"Could’ve done without Travis Scott here. Smoking a blunt when there’s clearly kids right there and WWE is still branding themselves as family friendly entertainment… just a bad look IMO," one netizen stated.

"Did y’all hear what Cole said? Yeaaaa this ain’t PG no mo...," a fan said.

"You can’t say f*** but you can smoke a blunt doesn’t make any sense to me," a netizen retorted.

Others, however, felt that the incident was in keeping with the spirit of WWE:

It’s a reminder of just how unpredictable and unpredictable WWE can be, especially with such larger-than-life personalities from the world of music, merging with the drama and chaos of pro wrestling," another netizen stated.

"He just gonna ignore that. He sparked the sparking up a blunt on the way down to the ring. I mean I’ve seen a lot of shit watching wrestling, but that is a first for me to see someone walking a wrestler to the ring smoking a joint I mean more power to him. It’s the new era," one fan mentioned.

"Gotta say this is the first time in 20 plus years I've sat and watched a whole show and I'm impressed. Not the attitude era I grew up watching but I'm not mad," another fan stated.

"And he’s doing the new Raw theme. Yeah we eating🔥" one commenter reacted.

Travis Scott will perform at Coachella 2025

Travis Scott is set to perform at the Coachella 2025 festival. The singer's performance was elaborated upon by Paul Tolette, the president of Golden Voice, in an interview on December 6, 2024:

"That's going to be pretty interesting. He laid out what he wants to do. It's a little too early to give any details, but I think it's the most significant experience the festival has ever had."

Tolette continued:

"Anything that gives you a chance to walk around and see something that's interesting, that's what discovery is all about. We've done Travis' concerts before, and we know how to run this. It's on the main stage where we have barricades set up and are prepared for any situation."
