Occasional WWE performer, huge fan, and country singing star Jelly Roll will become a member of the famous and prestigious Grand Ole Opry.

Jelly Roll got the news while appearing on the Joe Rogan Experience podcast and broke down in tears as one of his favorite artists and whose music helped him get through rough times in jail, Craig Morgan, recorded a video for him with the announcement.

The 41-year-old, whose real name is Jason Bradley DeFord, got super emotional, removed his headphones, and burst out crying. He then gave a massive hug to Rogan, who was also getting emotional himself at Roll’s reaction.

Jelly Roll is a massive WWE fan and is often at ringside for the big events. He even got physical and worked his ass off to lose a lot of weight for his first pro wrestling match which took place at SummerSlam, teaming with Randy Orton against Drew McIntyre and Logan Paul.

NEW: Jelly Roll breaks down in tears after his lifelong dream of being invited to become a member of the Grand Ole Opry came true at the end of Joe Rogan’s show.

Rogan surprised the singer with a message from country music artist Craig Morgan.
