20 Incredible WWE Ruthless Aggression Era Moments Nobody Ever Talks About
6. Snoop's First WrestleMania Beatdown
This global treasure may have popped up in the wrestling business on several magical and often absurd occasions over the years, but one of his most bizarre and unbelievable appearances in this industry undoubtedly went down during the Ruthless Aggression era.
Hopping back to the 24th 'Show of Shows', Snoop Dogg took on the role of 'Master of Ceremonies' for a tag contest that involved Ashley Massaro & Maria Kanellis taking on Melina & Beth Phoenix (more on those two later!).
Oh, and this wasn't just any two-on-two match, folks. It was a Playboy BunnyMania Lumberjill bout.
Because of course it was.
As expected, the entire thing was little more than a way to show off the bodies of the then-divas grappling within the division at the time, all while Jerry Lawler predictably and rather awkwardly drooled over the action on commentary.
There was one positive to be found amongst the forgettable five-minute doubles showing, though - one that played out in darkness for two of those due to an also quite incredible lights malfunction.
In response to a despicable Santino Marella costing Maria the match, that horny hero Lawler and a p*ssed Snoop decked the Italian.
The fact those moments, and the visual of Snoop engaging in a never-ending snog with Kanellis post-match, largely overshadowed both the contest itself and the result are just a few of the reasons this incredibly awkward bit of business is rarely spoken about today.
