WrestleMania 39 is finally done and dusted. With Triple H at the helm of the Creative, the grandest spectacle in wrestling left nothing to be desired. Snoop Dogg and The Miz unmistakably did a phenomenal job as the show hosts. The WWE Universe had a whale of a time seeing Snoop Dogg turn on his co-host. The Doggfather is receiving praise for thinking on his feet on Night 2. Dogg’s close friend, Shaquille O’Neal, took to his social media to post a clip of the iconic spot.
After turning on The Miz on Night 1 by making his impromptu match official against the returning Pat McAfee, The Miz had a bone to pick with Snoop Dogg on Night 2. The Miz and the fans were gobsmacked when Shane O Mac’s music hit.
As expected, The Miz was going to have his work cut out for him once again. However, during the match, Shane O Mac botched a leapfrog and injured himself legitimately. Fans were confused at this point. But Snoop Dogg came to the rescue.

“I’m just inspired by him. I love how he took his basketball career, put it on pause, and took his business. You forget he was a basketball player based off of how business-minded he became.”
Dogg stated that he admires Shaq’s prowess in business. The WWE Hall of Famer praised Shaq for putting his NBA career on pause and still making a lot of money through commercials and businesses.
