WWE Rumor Roundup: RAW superstar didn't belong, Veteran called a 'snake', Peyton Royce's name - 25th April 2021

#2. WWE officials were reportedly upset over Snoop Dogg 's AEW appearance

Snoop Dogg has been involved with the WWE for a very long time, and his appearances have even landed him a spot in the WWE Hall of Fame's Celebrity Wing.

Despite his affiliation with the WWE, Snoop Dogg surprised several wrestling fans not too long ago by appearing for AEW. It appears the WWE was not happy with Snoop Dogg's dealings with All Elite Wrestling.

The legendary rapper revealed on Hot 97's Ebro in the Morning podcast that WWE officials didn't react favorably to his AEW appearance.

"They felt some type of way," Snoop Dogg said while talking about the backstage reaction in the WWE. Snoop Dogg explained that he is not a wrestler but a personality who appeared on AEW to promote his TBS show, 'The Go-Big Show'.

AEW was just a promotional vehicle for Snoop Dogg and, as an intelligent businessman, he had to make the best out of the situation and show up on AEW TV. Snoop Dogg explained:

"Let me tell you this, Snoop Dogg ain't no wrestler. He's bigger than that. 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. So, as a promotional vehicle for the gig, I went on AEW." H/t WrestlingInc

Snoop Dogg appeared on AEW Dynamite's New Year's Smash episode, where he was in Cody Rhodes' corner for the American Nightmare's match against Matt Sydal. Snoop Dogg even executed what is widely considered the worst frog splash performed by a celebrity performer in wrestling history after the match.
