Rock legend and WWE Hall of Famer Ozzy Osbourne will make his presence known in the WWE Champions mobile game for the upcoming ‘Summer of Darkness’ event.

The 75-year-old English music legend will feature prominently in the event which will feature a brand-new character of Osbourne. Players will also have the chance to chase four new Superstars throughout the month. Players can collect Ozzy-themed items to progress in the Madman Collection Contest, including a poster of the rock star. Players who obtain his Poster can use him in his weekly 24-hour Tour and Showdown to earn additional rewards and progress toward unlocking the new Superstars.

WWE Champions is a puzzle game released in January 2017 that features RPG elements. The game was developed by Kung Fu Factory and published by Scopely for iPhone, iPad, and Android.

Ozzy Osbourne And WWE

The Prince of Rock’s tenure with WWE dates back to 1986 when he appeared in the corner of The British Bulldogs. The duo of Davey Boy Smith and Davey Boy Smith defeated The Dream Team (Greg Valentine and Brutus Beefcake) to capture the WWF World Tag Team Championships. Osbourne appeared several times for WWE in the 2000s, including as a guest host of Monday Night Raw in 2009 alongside his wife Sharon.

Osbourne’s tracks have also been used for WWE events, including War Pigs which has been used for events featuring the iconic WarGames match. For his efforts in entertainment and WWE, he was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame class of 2021 as that year’s celebrity inductee.

WWE usually brings big surprises and celebrities to WrestleMania. Saturday night’s show featured Jacon Kelce and Lane Johnson in Lincoln Financial Field. Sunday’s show will also feature some surprises.

Snoop Dogg is a WWE Hall of Famer, and he is also a superfan. He doesn’t like to miss WrestleMania, and this year will not be any different.

Fightful Select has reported that Snoop Dogg is slated to be a part of WrestleMania Sunday. The Doggfather will be on the commentary table for the six-man street fight match with Bobby Lashley & Street Profits vs. The Final Testament. It is also noted that he will be around for the attendance announcement later on in the show.

Snoop Dogg’s History in Pro Wrestling

Snoop Dogg has a history in pro wrestling. He served as the official “Master of Ceremonies” for the Playboy Bunnymania Lumberjack Match at WrestleMania XXIV in 2008 and was the Guest Host for Raw on October 19, 2009.

In March 2016, the night before WrestleMania 32 in Arlington, Texas, Snoop was inducted into the celebrity wing of the WWE Hall of Fame. His first cousin, Mercedes Mone, has also made no secret of their family connection.

In January 2021, Snoop made his debut in All Elite Wrestling at AEW’s New Year’s Smash. That serves as Snoop’s only AEW appearance to date.

He also provided ringside commentary at WrestleMania 39 but ended up in the ring during a segment with wrestler Mike “The Miz” Mizanin. Shane McMahon then joined the fray, and in the ensuing scuffle, McMahon suffered a quad injury while attempting a move. Snoop stepped in to continue the match, ultimately winning with his version of The Rock’s “people’s elbow.”

WrestleMania Sunday Match Order

The report also included an order of matches and segments for WrestleMania Sunday. The card is always subject to change, and WrestleMania is known for surprises. Triple H promo

Mercedes Mone made AEW Big Business her business on Wednesday and the company made sure they tied her first piece of merchandise tied into her own history.

Mone is the new “CEO” of AEW and she was the one to kick off Big Business in her hometown of Boston, MA as the TD Garden went bonkers for the former Sasha Banks.

AEW decided to embrace Mone’s mogul identity as they unleashed a classic hip-hop design that is reflective of imagery used by the storied Death Row Records label.

Death Row Records was an independent record label consisting of Dr. Dre, the late 2Pac, The Dogg Pound and of course, Mone’s cousin Snoop Dogg.

Mercedes cut a “hero’s welcome” promo in front of the crowd and did get a little emotional in front of the crowd. She end-capped the evening as Willow Nightingale took on Riho in the main event of the program, but Mone made clear that she had unfinished business with Willow Nightingale.

Mercedes Mone & Snoop Dogg

Snoop Dogg and Mone are indeed tight as it was Dogg who introduced her to the ring for WrestleMania 32. Snoop may be the true locksmith to pro wrestling’s forbidden door as he’s not just a WWE Hall Of Famer, but also famously got physical on AEW Dynamite with a questionable top rope splash onto Serpentico. 

However, Dogg completely redeemed himself as he ended up defeated The Miz at WrestleMania 39 after Shane McMahon unexpectedly got injured after a surprise return. That moment got high praise from COO Triple H.

“I’ve known Snoop for years in this environment and what kind of a fan he is, but tonight he put himself on a different playing field and respect factor for me. I know a lot of guys that have been in business a long time; if that happened, they’d go, ‘what do we do?’ It was amazing.”

Snoop Dogg’s Gold WWE Title is in the hands of a new individual, and he might have a tag team partner waiting for him as well. As WrestleMania 40 approaches, it appears that his prized WWE Title has found its way into the hands of Gritty, the Philadelphia Flyers mascot.

The Gold WWE Title Is In Gritty’s Hands

Snoop Dogg let the Philadelphia Eagles hold onto his Gold WWE Title. Now, it appears that Gritty acquired that gold, but we’re not sure of the measures that Gritty went through to achieve his goal.

WWE took to Twitter, sharing a video featuring Gritty, proudly wielding Snoop Dogg’s coveted WWE Championship. In the video, Gritty playfully called out Snoop Dogg, asserting that he has no intentions of returning the Championship.

What’s up Snoop, it’s Gritty. I got the Gold WWE Title from the Eagles and I ain’t giving it back. Come and get it.

Gritty then clarified that there is no beef with Snoop. In fact, the mascot said that the Doggfather is his tag team partner.

History of Gold WWE Title

Back in August 2022, the rapper was presented with the golden WWE Championship by Bianca Belair and Becky Lynch at the WrestleMania Launch Party at SoFi Stadium. Snoop Dogg took the title on his Holidaze of Blaze Tour to share its awesomeness with fans, but it was unfortunately pilfered.

Late last year, the iconic rapper entrusted his golden WWE Championship to the Philadelphia Eagles. Photos surfaced of Jason Kelce and others posing with the title, safeguarding it in the process.

Who is Gritty?

Gritty has distinctive orange fur, googly eyes, and vibrant personality; he is a perfect fit for the Philadelphia Flyers’ mascot. While embodying the spirit of Philadelphia sports. The mascot has been a fixture at Flyers’ home games, community events, and various promotional activities, contributing to the overall fan experience.

Given his charisma and unique look, Gritty broke into pop culture, and he is mentioned among many staples in pro sports. Now, he is holding onto Snoop Dogg’s Gold WWE Title. Let’s see what he does to it, and if Snoop will want it back afterward.

Snoop Dogg is a long-time pro wrestling fan, and he’s a WWE Hall of Famer for a reason. The Doggfather was also given a special golden WWE Title belt, but he’s going to let the Eagles hold it for a while.

Snoop Dogg Has A Gift For The Eagles

As preparations for WrestleMania 40 next year are underway, Snoop Dogg handed over his golden WWE Title belt to the Philadelphia Eagles. Jason Kelce and Lane Johnson are now responsible for keeping track of that title.

WWE posted a video of Snoop Dogg formally handing over the Golden WWE Championship to the Philadelphia Eagles, hoping that they keep the title safe until WrestleMania 40. This was quite a viral moment that drew attention from the pro wrestling, hip-hop, and football worlds.

The Golden WWE Championship’s Journey

The journey of Snoop Dogg’s golden WWE Championship all started when he received it from Bianca Belair and Becky Lynch at the WrestleMania Launch Party held at SoFi Stadium in August 2022.

Snoop Dogg then brought it on the Holidaze of Blaze Tour, only for it to be stolen during the course of the events. That was all an angle, as other celebrities like Pete Davidson, Rob Gronkowski, William Shatner, and several others were spotted with the championship.

With WrestleMania 40 scheduled to go down at Philadelphia’s Lincoln Financial Field on Saturday, April 6th, and Sunday, April 7th, 2024, WWE seems ready for some sort of storyline around Snoop Dogg’s Golden WWE Championship. We will have to see what they have planned for the showcase of the immortals, but the Eagles are keeping that title close.

The latest development in the storyline of who has Snoop Dogg’s WWE Golden Title came to light today. When WWE first started this storyline, it got some mainstream attention and generated a lot of buzz among wrestling fans. 

Snoop, an iconic rapper, is part of the WWE Hall of Famer and got the golden WWE Championship from Bianca Belair and Becky Lynch at the WrestleMania Launch Party at SoFi Stadium in August. When he brought it on the Holidaze of Blaze Tour “to show the fans how dope it is” last December, the championship was stolen. 

Title Changes Hands

Last week, actor/comedian Pete Davidson was spotted with Snoop Dogg’s golden WWE Championship during a Pro Bowl game. Rob Gronkowski had the title last week as well just before the Super Bowl and now, it’s in the hands of legendary actor William Shatner. 

WWE has released this video of Shatner with the title: 

With WrestleMania 39 taking place on April 1st and 2nd at the SoFi Stadium in California, it’s possible that the storyline will end at the show.

It may be a good while yet before Snoop Dogg and his gold WWE Championship are reunited after the title went missing this week.

On social media, the rap legend and WWE informed fans that the title had been ‘stolen’ during Snoop’s ongoing ‘Holidaze of Blaze’ tour.

Snoop, a WWE Hall of Famer as part of the celebrity wing, was presented the title by Bianca Belair and Becky Lynch at the WrestleMania 39 tickets launch party in August of this year.

Lost and Found

On Instagram, WWE shared footage of comedian Guillermo Rodriguez with the golden title, saying he won’t give it back to Snoop.

After a ‘moments later’ cut, Rodriguez revealed that he has already lost the title, and it is unclear where it is now.

Rodriguez is best known for his work on Jimmy Kimmel Live as the sidekick of the popular late-night talk show host.

A post shared by WWE (@wwe)

Expert belt creator Dan Beltzer (@BeltFanDan) senses this developing news story might be seasoned with a hint of show business. Beltzer noticed that more than one belt has been used as part of the news coverage, a sign that this may be part of an angle to generate publicity for Snoop and/or WWE.

WrestleMania 39

When asking for the help of fans, Snoop Dogg stressed that he needs to find the gold WWE Championship before WrestleMania 39.

Many have taken this as a sign that the rap legend will have some involvement with the show which will take place on April 1, and April 2, next year.

Snoop is no stranger to WrestleMania, having performed his cousin Sasha Banks to the ring for her WrestleMania 32 triple threat match for the WWE Women’s Championship.

WWE WrestleMania 39 will take place at SoFi Stadium, in Los Angeles, California and mark the fourth two-night WrestleMania in a row.

Some of the big names from All Elite Wrestling represented the company at the recent birthday bash for Snoop Dogg.

The music legend turned 51 earlier this month and had a huge party in Miami, Florida.

On Twitter, AEW’s official account shared images of TBS Champion Jade Cargill, Swerve Strickland, and Ricky Starks at the event.

Cargill, who attended in her wrestling gear, later shared a video of her giving Snoop his cake, calling it a bucket list moment.

Snoop and AEW

Snoop Dogg appeared for AEW on the January 6, 2021 edition of Dynamite, which was the company’s ‘New Year’s Smash’ special.

Appearing in the corner of Cody Rhodes for his match with Matt Sydal, the rap legend would get physical himself later on, delivering a frog-splah to Serpentico.

Rhodes would then deliver a three-count, given Snoop an unofficial victory in AEW.

Snoop was one of the four judges for season one of the Go-Big Show, which Rhodes is also a judge for.

Snoop and WWE

Snoop has appeared for AEW, but the vast majority of his wrestling appearances have come with WWE.

The rapper was the Master of Ceremonies for a women’s tag team match at WrestleMania, and later shared a kiss with Maria Kanellis, who won the match alongside Ashley Massaro.

In March 2016, Snoop was inducted into the celebrity wing of the WWE Hall of Fame the night before WrestleMania 32.

At WrestleMania, Snoop would perform for the entrance of his cousin Sasha Banks, who unsuccessfully competed for the WWE Women’s Championship.
