The WWE boss was posing with the lead singer of Nickelback, Chad Kroeger.

While Kroeger and his Nickelback bandmates were never competitors in the ring, they do have a special tie to the WWE.

In 2009 their song Burn it to the Ground was selected as the official theme of Monday Night Raw.

It was used until Raw 1,000 in July of 2012.

Other Nickelback songs have been used for WWE events alongside Burn it to the Ground.

Their song This Means War was used for the 2012 Elimination Chamber event and Edge of a Revolution was used for Survivor Series in 2014.

Nickelback also performed a live rendition of Burn it to the Ground at the Tribute to the Troops event in 2011.

The band released their tenth studio album and their first since 2017 in 2022 titled Get Rollin'.

They also completed their most recent tour in August 2023 to accompany the album.

The SmackDown event that Kroeger was in attendance for was the first of 2024.

It saw a four-way get confirmed for Royal Rumble with Roman Reigns defending against Randy Orton, AJ Styles, and LA Knight.

The event also saw Kevin Owens defeat Santos Escobar in the U.S. Championship Contenders Tournament.
