Snoop Dogg first worked with WWE when he was the Master of Ceremonies for the Maria/Ashley Massaro vs. Melina/Beth Phoenix match at WrestleMania XXIV. He then returned for Raw appearances in 2009 and 2015, which led to him being inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame celebrity wing in 2016. The following night he’d accompany his cousin Sasha Banks to the ring for her match ar WrestleMania 32 for a cool WrestleMania moment.
His WWE relationship appeared to be strong as just last month he partnered with the company to release a limited-edition merchandise collaboration with The Undertaker. However, according to Bryan Alvarez of F4Wonline.com, WWE is very upset with the rapper for taking a booking to appear on AEW’s January 6th New Year’s Smash edition of Dynamite.
Snoop’s AEW appearance is likely related to his involvement in the “Go-Big Show,” which is premiering the following night on TBS. He is a judge on the show, alongside Cody Rhodes, so the appearance does make perfect sense. Although, that likely won’t appease WWE management. Previously WWE canceled the booking of Jay and Silent Bob after they were featured on Dynamite, so it will be interesting to see if Snoop has burnt his bridge with WWE.
