Wrestlemania 39

Bad Bunny Got Put Through The Announce Table During The Raw After WrestleMania

Two years after stealing the show at WrestleMania 37, it appears that Bad Bunny is angling for a return to the ring.

WWE has been hyping Bunny’s return to the promotion over the last month as he’s set to host the premium live event Backlash in Puerto Rico on May 6. He first got involved in the lead-up to that event at WrestleMania 39, stopping Dominik Mysterio from hitting his dad with a chain and helping Rey Mysterio get the win on the Grandest Stage of ‘Em All.

On Monday night at the Raw after WrestleMania, that feud continued when Dominik cost his father a match against Austin Theory, then proceeded to give him a beatdown after the bell. Dominik then spotted Bunny at ringside and went to give him a piece of his mind. Bunny responded by connecting on a straight right to Dominik, which led to Bunny’s former partner, Damian Priest, tossing him over the ringside barricade. Back on his feet, Bunny attacked Dominik again before Priest hit him with a short clothesline and then choke slammed him through the announce table.

No match has been set as of this writing, but it appears WWE is setting things up for Bunny — who, it must be said, can really go — to return to action.

Snoop Dogg At WrestleMania 39: Rapper Pins The Miz With A People’s Elbow

by

Snoop Dogg has surpassed half a century of life, but his rising age isn’t stopping him from continuing to make epic moves in the music industry and beyond. After throwing his hat in the ring to perform at Prince Charles’ upcoming coronation last week, the rapper is now showing off his strength in the ring at WrestleMania 39. On Sunday (April 2), the Doggfather made headlines by pinning WWE Superstar The Miz using a People’s Elbow that’s earning him plenty of praise online.

As TMZ reports, the 51-year-old was at SoFi Stadium when he brought out Shane McMahon as a surprise competitor for the Ohio-born fighter. The Miz and his contemporary entertained the crowd for a bit, but before long, Snoop intervened and set his sights on taking down Michael Mizanin. Ever the entertainer, the “Gin N Juice” hitmaker stood above his opponent to showboat for some time before dropping on him elbow first and ending the battle with a three count. “This is humiliating!!!” announcers watching on declared.

Snoop Dogg Shows off His Strength

The Miz was caught off guard by Snoop’s attack on him, sources say. He was “fully expecting a casual interaction” with the west coast legend. Instead, he fell victim – and not for the first time this weekend. The sold-out crowd was obviously overcome with surprise by what they witnessed. Still, the winner managed to keep a cool head and maintain his composure. While he certainly left with his head held high, the same isn’t true for the 42-year-old. He took on a beatdown at the hands of Geroge Kittle and Pat McAfee just hours before.

Plenty of wild antics have already been unfolding in Los Angeles, and there are still two more nights of WrestleMania 39 to go. Elsewhere at the event, Lil Uzi Vert dropped by to perform their “Just Wanna Rock” single, which they’ve also taken to The Tonight Show stage and Dreamville Festival over the past few days. Have you been tuning into the ongoing events? Let us know what you’re most looking forward to ahead of the grand finale in the comments, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.

Snoop Dogg Knocked Out The Miz After Shane McMahon Was Injured At WrestleMania 39

The Miz lost not one, but two consecutive impromptu matches across both nights at WrestleMania.

Saturday night, it was Pat McAfee making a surprise return, beating Miz around the ring, George Kittle getting involved, and McAfee winning. Sunday night, Shane McMahon was the one who made the shocking return to a huge pop as “Here Comes The Money” played out over the speakers at SoFi Stadium.

Snoop Dogg made the match official and McMahon hit Miz with a classic McMahon punching combo, pushing him back into the turnbuckle. McMahon danced around the ring and appeared to hurt his knee on a leapfrog over Miz. The match was abruptly halted as Miz tried to stall and the medical staff checked on McMahon.

Snoop recognized McMahon may not be able to continue and jumped in to save the day.

He laid out Miz with a right hand, then asked McMahon if he was good. When McMahon wasn’t able to continue, Snoop hit him with another straight shot, set up for the People’s Elbow, tossed his sunglasses into the crowd, and landed the elbow for the three count. This also may have been the first time someone who was never officially part of a match earned a pinfall to win it, a true WrestleMania first.
