Shane McMahon compelled the WrestleMania 39 Day 2 audience to rise from their place as he made an unexpected return at the SoFi Stadium. It was hardly a few moments after Snoop Dogg and The Miz made space in their segment that ‘Here Comes the Money’ started playing loud in the Stadium and out came Shane McMahon.
Snoop Dogg booked an impromptu match between Shane O Mac and The Miz. The match was expected to bring in a lot of excitement for the fans but the tables turned and led to a massive disaster. As The Miz ran towards the rope, Shane jumped in the air and landed on the mat in a bad position. Shane failed to stand up and had to be carried by the WWE officials.

Shane’s injury left the WWE Universe worried about his knee. Triple H spoke at the post-WrestleMania press conference and ruled out the case of a scripted injury. He confirmed that Shane McMahon legit suffered from a torn quad. There is no update on when he will return to the ring (in case he does).
How did Snoop Dogg save the WrestleMania 39 match set for Shane McMahon and The Miz?
After Shane McMahon fell flat on the mat, he failed to get back up leaving everyone witnessing the segment blank. The Miz, who was present in the ring, also couldn’t understand what had happened to Shane. He also looked utterly confused as to how he would improvise to complete the segment. Thanks to Snoop Dogg who made an appearance in the ring and saved the match.

While Shane could gather the energy to move out of the ring, The A-Lister revolved around Shane and looked at him with an empty mind. Snoop Dogg was present there and while the WWE medical team came out to check on Shane, he laid down The Miz for a pinfall amidst a cheering audience. The People’s Elbow came as a sudden attack from the ‘Doggfather’ star leaving Miz stunned.
Snoop Dogg’s presence of mind saved WWE from humiliation which might have appeared at the Grandest Stage Of Them All. As Snoop pinned Miz, the announcers spoke everyone’s heart out and said, “This is humiliating.” However, there could have been no better way to bring the segment to an end while Shane lay legitimately hurt.
