The news of Ash Costello appearing at WrestleMania first came from Loudwire, and WWE confirmed it on their official website. She now joins the list of eminent artists and bands to perform at WrestleMania. She joins the likes of Motorhead, Nita Strauss, Machine Gun Kelly, Flo Rida, Kid Rock and many more.

Costello, who provides the vocals for Ripley‘s theme song, has received only praise from the #1 contender for the Raw Women’s Championship. She talked about the singer in a 2020 interview with Loudwire.

“I think Ash is absolutely amazing. Being able to hear that when I’m coming out, it really does put me into the mindset that I’m going into a mosh pit and I’m ready to rock out and beat people up.”
