10 WWE Superfans That Actually Made It

Most famously outed as a family member during her glamorous entrance for Wrestlemania 32's historic Women's Title triple threat match, Sasha Banks' famous cousin Snoop Dogg was able to give superfan Sasha exclusive access behind the scenes at Wrestlemania 24 and other events over the years thanks to his close relationship with WWE.

However, photo-ops and backstage passes barely scratch the surface of the love 'The Boss' has for Sports Entertainment, with the self-confessed wrestling nerd seen regularly sporting obscure or historic t-shirts adorned with her old favourites, and countless photos of toys and memorabilia making up a sizeable portion of her social media presence (taken, appropriately on a Lucha Libre encased phone).

Most famously though, Sasha had a deep love and respect for the late Eddie Guerrero, and has admitted she was in attendance at his Minneapolis memorial show in 2005, heartbreakingly only discovering his death upon arrival at the venue.

She has since paid multiple tributes to him in her matches and during Network documentaries, most famously honouring his legacy by sporting gear identical to his WWE Title-winning attire during her aforementioned Wrestlemania debut.
