In recent years, WWE has been characterized by the constant appearance of celebrities on its television programming. Some of them have even been part of the action, such as Logan Paul (who actually ended up signing a contract as a superstar), Bad Bunny, or more recently, Lil Yachty, who has acted as Trick Williams' manager.

The artist, Grammy-nominated producer, and composer has been a key part of Williams' reign, from his conquest of the United States Championship at WrestleMania 42 to his defeat against Baron Corbin last weekend. However, this story may not be over yet.

A recent report from False Finish reveals that the artist is in negotiations with WWE to extend his presence on television. "Sources have indicated to False Finish that Lil Yachty is in negotiations with WWE to renew his contract with the company", the outlet wrote.

Yachty had a significant role on the second night of SummerSlam. The artist had a solo entrance with his popular song "Minnesota" before introducing Williams, who was defending the United States Title against Baron Corbin. Yachty's role was crucial in the final moments of the match, where he ended up going through a table. A distraction that "The Lone Wolf" took advantage of to secure the victory - and the title - through deceit.
