As reported earlier, Eminem signed a deal with WWE to appear on Smackdown Live, providing the soundtrack for WWE 2K20 video game and more. However, it seems this isn’t true as Eminem’s camp is denying the reports.
Eminem and WWE did not strike a deal according to his spokesperson Dennis Dennehy. It was said that there were some talks involving a third-party and 2K Sports, but it had nothing to do with Eminem signing a deal with WWE.
There was a very brief, exploratory conversation that involved a third party and 2K Sports, not Eminem’s team. It has not gone beyond preliminary discussions, and any reports to the contrary are false. Right now there are no plans to further pursue it.
So it seems it wasn’t true at all and we won’t be getting to see Eminem in WWE anytime soon. There was an “explanatory conversation,” but that is all. As he is on a tour overseas, signing a deal would be difficult for him.
