The Weeknd Keeps His WWE WrestleMania Streak Alive

The Weeknd is back for WrestleMania.
WWE has announced that 'Timeless' by Playboi Carti & The Weeknd is the official theme song for WrestleMania 41 next month in Las Vegas.
This marks an unprecedented sixth consecutive year that the four-time Grammy Award winner is at least one of the artists for the WrestleMania theme.
The Weeknd's tenure as the official WrestleMania artist dates back to 2020 when WrestleMania 36 was supposed to take place at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, but was forced to be filmed inside the WWE Performance Center due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
