Snoop Dogg is related to wrestler Sasha Banks
During his acceptance speech, Snoop Dogg shouted out a wrestler in the audience, Sasha Banks (real name Mercedes Varnado, who now uses the moniker Mercedes Moné), his cousin, and told a sweet story about meeting wrestlers together years earlier.
"You know what’s so crazy about that scenario is I remember in 2008 when I took her to Wrestlemania in Orlando, she was just a young little teenager, and I took her around to meet everybody that she wanted to meet. And you could just see her face light up. You could tell this is where she belongs and this is where she wanted to be," the rapper shared.
He continued, "To see the love that you guys have been giving her and to see her face on the side of the AT&T stadium, I mean, I don’t even know what to say to express how it feels, as a family member, to see my little cousin fighting for it all tomorrow. Love you, Sasha." The next day, he walked his cousin to the ring with a personalized rap.

Before heading to Paris to cover the 2024 Summer Games for NBC, Snoop Dogg delivered hilarious commentary on wrestling matches, being mostly supportive of everyone in the right while bantering with his fellow commentators.
He used a similar strategy at the Olympics, describing a badminton game like this: "As you see, it don’t stop ’til the casket drop. They rocking and rolling. Back and forth. Give me that. No, I need that. Nope, over here. No, over there. What about over there? Nope.” Obviously, he needs to make Olympic wrestling a thing next.
