Sony Urban Music/Columbia Records recording artists Three 6 Mafia still riding high from being the first hip-hop act to ever win an Oscar — will perform live at the WWE’s “Friday Night SmackDown!” event.

“It’s goin’ down in Bakersfield! Three 6 Mafia performs live at ‘SmackDown!,'” said Juicy J, one of the leaders of the Memphis rap collective. “We want everybody to come out and party with us! It’s gonna be a blast!”

This special appearance by Three 6 Mafia will be filmed on the same day — May 23 — that WWE: Wreckless Intent — the new CD compilation of WWE Superstar theme music performed by some of the biggest and hottest rock, alternative and hip-hop artists — arrives in stores.
