Mercedes Mone Joins Snoop Dogg’s Son For LA Tech Week

If Mercedes Mone is indeed the ‘CEO’ of All Elite Wrestling, then she should be in tune with the company’s tech department. At the very least, she may give some added insight to the gaming department.

The AEW ‘Superstar’ kept busy in the state of California this week as she not only wrestled on ‘AEW Dynamite,’ but she made her way down to Los Angeles to be an active participate in LA Tech Week. The TBS Women’s Champion actually joined a panel involving gaming creative mastermind Notef of NEIGHBOR, Angela Dalton of Signum Growth Dot Play and Cordell Broadus, Snoop Dogg’s son. Notef specializes in creating content for Fortnite and Mone partook in a panel labeled “The New Superstars In The Future of Media.”

Mone is the cousin of Snoop Dogg so the panel may have been a bit of a family flavor, but her ties to the Fortnite world are very indirect. While her likeness has not been a featured skin on the game, Mone’s colleagues Becky Lynch, Bianca Belair, John Cena and even The Rock have been featured on the game. She also have several Mandelorian colleagues apart of the Fortnite world when the Star Wars packs get released from time to time on the platform.

On Wednesday, Mone wrestled like a Fortnite storm was closing in as she took on a game Queen Aminita in singles action. The AEW TBS Championship was on the line as Mone ultimately made Aminata tap out to The Statement Maker.

Drew Barrymore, Jake Paul & All The Celebrities Who Were At WrestleMania 40

The stars were out this weekend as WWE presented its 40th annual WrestleMania premium live event from Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

In addition to the WWE Superstars, WrestleMania 40 also featured a stacked lineup of celebrity guests, some of whom held notable roles in the grand showcase.

Grammy-award-winning recording artist Coco Jones kicked off night one of the WrestleMania 40 festivities with a beautiful rendition of the United States National Anthem. Jones wasn’t the only musical act to appear this weekend, though, as the likes of Lil Wayne, Motionless In White, and The War and Treaty treated the audience to live performances as well.

While Motionless In White offered up live vocals for Rhea Ripley’s “Demon In Your Dreams” entrance song, rapper Lil-Wayne sang his popular single “A Milli” before accompanying Jey Uso to the ring for his match against twin brother, Jimmy Uso. Similar to Coco Jones, Grammy-nominated group The War and Treaty performed “God Bless America” ahead of WrestleMania night two. 

WrestleMania 40 spectators were also surprised with the appearance of rapper and WWE Hall of Famer Snoop Dogg, who assumed double duty on night two. After providing special guest commentary in the six-man Philadelphia Street Fight, Snoop later announced the attendance numbers for night two while surrounded by the Philadelphia Eagles cheerleaders and mascot. 

The recently retired Jason Kelce also emerged on the WrestleMania 40 stage, as he and former Eagles teammate Lane Johnson, helped Rey Mysterio and Andrade prevail over Santos Escobar and Dominik Mysterio on night one.

YouTuber IShowSpeed found himself in a precarious position as he came face-to-face with “The Viper” Randy Orton during the United States Championship match. While he concealed himself in a blue PRIME bottle costume for most of the match, Speed later revealed his identity, only to be greeted by an unamused Orton. Speed’s WrestleMania outing would ultimately end in him taking an RKO from Orton onto the commentary desk.

Other celebrities in attendance include Jake Paul, George Kittle, Meek Mill, Lil Baby, Wale, 2 Chainz, Druski, Lilly Singh, Vanessa Hudgens, Winnie Harlow, Wallo, O’Shea Jackson Jr., Gabriel Iglesias, Michael Rubin, Mark Kerr and Drew Barrymore, who was seen getting ready for the event with former WWE Champion The Miz.

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.”

Allegiant Stadium does have a connection to wrestling, as the venue hosted the SummerSlam 2021 Premium Live Event. In the main event, WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns made sure John Cena didn’t become a 17-time World Champion before being confronted by the returning Brock Lesnar after the match. 

Gritty Hijacks Snoop Dogg’s Gold WWE Title Belt

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 Lets Philadelphia Eagles Hold Onto His Golden WWE Title

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.

Ahead of #WrestleMania 40 in Philly, @SnoopDogg has entrusted the Philadelphia @Eagles with his #WWEGoldenTitle! Let’s see if they can hold onto it until WrestleMania

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.

Celebrity Involvement For WrestleMania 39

It seems WWE will be looking to have celebrities involved in this year’s WrestleMania. Last year, the Wrestling Observer Newsletter noted that WWE wanted to get several celebrity involvements for the event. However, the report didn’t share who the WWE wanted.

A celebrity that could appear on the show is Latin superstar Bad Bunny, who has competed in WWE. On the Masked Man Show on Dec. 1, 2022, Kazeem Famuyide shared that he heard that WWE wanted to have Bad Bunny challenge Dominik Mysterio at WrestleMania 39. However, it seems the company is leaning towards a father vs. son match at the event. It’s still possible for Bad Bunny to appear, but he may not wrestle.

Snoop Dogg WWE Championship

Regarding Snoop Dogg, fans may remember that he was involved in the WrestleMania 39 Launch Party on Aug. 11, 2022. At the event, WWE gave him a gold WWE Championship, which other celebrities have been seen with the title after he “lost” it. Its possible fans will Snoop Dogg and his title involved at WrestleMania 39.

What celebrity would you want to appear at this year’s WrestleMania? Let us know in the comments.

Snoop Dogg’s ‘Stolen’ Golden WWE Title is Now in The Possession of William Shatner

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.

Snoop Dogg’s Gold WWE Championship Found – Immediately Goes Missing Again

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.

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.

AEW Wrestlers Attend Snoop Dogg’s Birthday Bash (Photos)

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.

Snoop Dogg Gifted Custom WWE Championship Belt

This week, WWE hosted its WrestleMania 39 tickets launch event, with a star-studded show in Los Angeles, California.

Snoop Dogg was at the event, and presented Becky Lynch and Bianca Belair with some Death Row chains as a gift, but the pair also had something special for him.

Snoop’s Title

A WWE Hall of Famer, rap legend Snoop Dogg already has plenty of accolades to his name, but now has his own custom championship title.

During the event, Lynch and Belair were on hand to present Snoop with the title, with the help from some of the LA Lakers Cheerleaders team.

Belair said it was a one-of-a-kind custom WWE Championship, which is white and gold with green accents.

Snoop was clearly thrilled by the gift, which he proudly held over his head.

Snoop and WWE

The self-professed ‘Dogg-father of WrestleMania’ has made multiple appearances for WWE over the years.

At WrestleMania 24 in 2008, Snoop was the master of ceremonies for the Lumberjill tag-team match between Maria & Ashley and Melina & Beth Phoenix.

After being confronted by Santino Marella, Snoop leveled the former Intercontinental Champion before sharing a kiss with Maria.

In 2009, Snoop was the guest host of Monday Night Raw and again got physical, tackling Chavo Guerrero with a spear during a segment including Hornswoggle.

In 2016, Snoop performed at WrestleMania, providing a track for his cousin Sasha Banks, who challenged for the WWE Women’s Championship.

That same year, he would enter the WWE Hall of Fame as part of the celebrity wing.

Snoop Dogg & More Attend WWE WrestleMania 39 Tickets Launch Event

Next year, WWE WrestleMania 39 will return to California, in what is expected to be one of the biggest events WWE has put on in some time.

Like the past three WrestleManias, the 39th iteration of WWE’s flagship show will be a two-night event and will take place on Saturday, April 1, and Sunday, April 2, from SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California.

Lynch and Belair

WWE always goes the extra mile for WrestleMania, and that includes when tickets go on sale for their annual event.

This week, WWE hosted a special event in Los Angeles to mark the tickets launch, which kicked off with an appearance by Triple H.

After ‘the Game’ Raw Women’s Champion Bianca Belair and Becky Lynch appeared to hype up the crowd in LA.

Lynch, who was wearing a sling, spoke about next year’s WrestleMania, and said she plans on “stealing the show.”

Belair spoke about their Raw Women’s title match from this year’s WrestleMania, reminding the Man that she emerged victorious.

Celebrity Invovlement

It wasn’t just WWE Superstars who appeared at the WrestleMania 39 ticket launch event, as dancer/singer/YouTuber Jojo Siwa also made an appearance.

The 19-year-old performer was the guest on an edition of Miz TV, but introduced SmackDown Women’s Champion Liv Morgan.

Siwa, who wore a Liv hoodie, alongside Morgan poked fun at the alleged size of Miz’s ‘balls’ which the two-time former WWE Champion insisted are “wonderful.”

The rap legend was presented with his own custom WWE Championship title and proceeded to ‘make it rain’ with Lynch and Belair on stage.

Snoop’s involvement is interesting, as he is the cousin of WWE Superstar Sasha Banks, who many believe will return to WWE TV soon in this post-Vince McMahon era of the company.

Tickets for WrestleMania 39 can be purchased here.

JoJo Siwa & Snoop Dogg Join WWE’s WrestleMania 39 Ticket Launch

Snoop Dogg Shows Support For Sasha Banks Amid WWE Suspension

Legendary rapper Snoop Dogg has shown his cousin, Sasha Banks, some love in the midst of her issues with WWE.

Sasha and her tag team partner Naomi have been suspended indefinitely by WWE. The punishment was handed down as a result of the former WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions walking out of the May 16 episode of Raw mid-show.

In addition to the suspension, WWE has pulled all online merchandise for Sasha and Naomi. The company has also removed them from its TV intro.

Amid all the drama, Snoop Doog is showing “The Boss” some family love.

https://www.instagram.com/p/Cd4ked9MniZ/
https://www.instagram.com/p/Cd4_I7KONU9/

It was reported by PWInsider that creative differences were to blame for the incident. Sasha and Naomi were set to compete in a six-pack challenge to determine the number one contender for Bianca Belair’s WWE Raw Women’s Championship.

Naomi was scheduled to win the match and face Belair at Hell in a Cell on June 5. Sasha Banks was going to challenge Ronda Rousey for the SmackDown Women’s Championship.

Both were expected to lose their singles title matches.

The issue seems to be that Sasha and Naomi felt the work they had done as a tag team was being tainted.

It had also been reported by former WWE writer Kazeem Famuyide that contracts for both Sasha and Naomi are coming due in the near future.

Snoop Dogg Says WWE Disciplined Him For AEW Appearance

Rap Icon Snoop Dogg recently appeared on Hot 97’s Ebro in the Morning podcast. The star behind hits such as ‘Gin N Juice’ and ‘Nuttin But a G Thang” discussed a number of topics during the podcast, including how WWE were not happy that he appeared in AEW.

Snoop got physical on the January 6th “New Year’s Smash” edition of AEW Dynamite. He hit a ‘frog splash’ (if you can call it that) during the show as part of promo for the Go-Big Show on TBS.

“Let me tell you this, Snoop Dogg ain’t no wrestler. He’s bigger than that” Snoop Dogg began, speaking on the podcast. “You gotta understand that. This is the dynamics of what happened: I had a show on TBS called Go-Big Show.

“So, Cody Rhodes was one of the judges on the show, and he’s one of the top dogs at AEW” Snoop noted. “So, as a promotional vehicle for the gig, I went on AEW.”

Snoop Dogg’s AEW Appearance

Snoop reveals that WWE disciplined him for his appearance on AEW Dynamite by putting their working relationship on hold.

Recounting WWE’s communication to him, Snoop said, “‘Hey, you running with them? We got to push pause on your ass for a minute. So, I stayed cool. They pushed pause for about two weeks, and then they go, ‘Hey man, we got this video game and we need you.’”

Watch Snoop Dogg’s comments this situation here:

Snoop’s Doggy Splash

Snoop’s appearance on AEW Dynamite got a lot of attention for his less-than-graceful dive off the top rope. His cousin, WWE Superstar Sasha Banks, teased him on social media that his moves need a little work.

Snoop’s History With WWE

Snoop Dogg has appeared for WWE many times over the years. He was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2016.

Check out some of Snoop’s memorable WWE appearances:

Snoop Dogg accompanied Cody Rhodes to the ring for his match against Matt Sydall. Cody was victorious, but Luther and Serpentico hit the ring after the match and attacked the babyfaces.

Cody and Sydall eventually got the upper hand and then Snoop got physically involved. Snoop climbed the top rope and delivered a big splash onto Serpentico.

They counted the three and Snoop celebrated his big ‘win.’

Bruce Prichard Tells Hilarious Story of Snoop Dogg Cursing Out WWE Executive

During a recent episode of his podcast, Something to Wrestle, Bruce Prichard told a funny story of how Snoop Dog went off on WWE’s Executive Vice President of Television Production, Kevin Dunn. A few years ago WWE partnered with ‘Girls Gone Wild’, per the request of Eric Bischoff, and the WWE production team actually helped produce on of their pay-per-views (PPVs).

Dunn was in charge of several big-name stars for the event, which included Snoop Dogg:

“But the funniest story of it all for those — everybody knows Kevin Dunn was the/is the executive producer for WWE and Kevin was executive producer for this. And Snoop Dogg — they were all warned ahead of time — ‘listen cops are going to be out in force — no drugs! And when we say ‘no drugs’ that means marijuana too because apparently, that’s a drug… apparently, it’s illegal in Texas. So the cops and the state troopers and all this s— had come in and said ‘hey, you know we smell one damn joint, anything coming in we’re going to arrest people. We see any underage people drinking we’re arresting them and this show’s gonna be done with”

“So Snoop shows up a couple of hours late. Rolls up, billows of smoke coming out of the limo, so on and so forth. And as the legend goes, Kevin Dunn is beside himself because Snoop has missed all the rehearsals. [Snoop’s] showing up, they’re getting ready to go live and Kevin is trying to explain to Snoop what he’s got to do for that night. And Snoop is just standing there staring off into the distance puffing on a cigar. And Kevin is getting madder and madder because Snoop won’t acknowledge him and finally Snoop, without ever looking at him goes: ‘hey motherf*****, just because I ain’t looking at you don’t mean I ain’t hearing you! I got this s***!’ And he f***** just walked off.”
