Snoop Dogg to be named to WWE's celebrity Hall of Fame in Dallas

Every year, World Wrestling Entertainment includes a celebrity member in its Hall of Fame class. Mike Tyson, Donald Trump and last year's inductee Arnold Schwarzenegger all have their place in WWE's celebrity wing. This year's addition to the list is hip-hop legend Snoop Dogg.

A huge fan of WWE, Snoop Dogg has taken part in episodes of Monday Night Raw as well as finding himself in the middle of the ring at WrestleMania XXIV.

His influence not only flows through the music world, but also through wrestling as his cousin, Sasha Banks, is competing in a triple threat match for the Diva's Championship at WrestleMania 32 inside AT&T Stadium on Sunday.

"Snoop is a huge wrestling fan, and he's just always given me advice on doing what you want to do," Banks said. "I haven't talked to him yet about [accompanying me to the ring at] WrestleMania, but you never know what's going to be in the works."

Snoop joins Sting, Jacqueline, Stan Hansen, The Godfather, The Fabulous Freebirds, Big Boss Man and Warrior Award winner Joan Lunden in this year's class.

The Hall of Fame ceremony will be held at the American Airlines Center in Dallas on Saturday, April 2.
