10 Desperate Things WWE Superstars Did In The Name Of Love

4. Gene Snitsky's Foot Fetish

A desperate move by the WWE's booking team for a desperate superstar trying to save his WWE career. Desperation all round. In a relatively short space of time, Snitsky had made quite a big impression on Raw. He as part of the infamous 'It Wasn't My Fault' angle which saw him play his part in the death of Lita's unborn baby and had a rather big run-in with Kane. He was becoming one of the best heels on the roster. His impressive size and more than capable skills in the ring meant he looked set for a career at the top of the WWE. However, the powers that be soon started booking him in weird situations. We all know how weird he ended up being all spotty and with no hair, but the weirdness started a few years before his decline started. WWE decided to give Gene a foot fetish. He was Edge's hired gun at the time. The Rated R Superstar offered Snitsky with the prize of "having a go with Lita's feet" if he'd help him in a match against Kane. Despite Lita and Snitsky's storied past, this was all put to bed for the benefit of Edge. Lita actually thanked Gene for his actions nine months prior, saying that she was better off for not having birthed the spawn of Kane. Imagine being told kissing and sniffing feet was some sort of reward... Desperate.
