Maria Kanellis Reflects On Kissing John Cena and Snoop Dogg On WWE TV

Posted By: Ben Jordan Kerin on Dec 21, 2021

During an interview with Metro UK, former WWE Superstar Maria Kanellis discussed the awkward experience of having to kiss people on WWE T, including the times she had to do so with John Cena and Snoop Dogg.

Maria Kanellis on kissing John Cena and Snoop Dogg on WWE TV:

“I’ve kissed people along the way on television and everybody is always like, ‘Oh, you kissed him!’ It is the most awkward experience of your life. It’s not like this, ‘Oh, this is lovely’ – no, it is awkward! There’s a camera, there’s a producer, there’s your writer, then there’s makeup artists out there sometimes watching to make sure your hair’s in the right position as you’re kissing this person. It’s like, ‘Oh no, can you turn your face a little bit’ – and eventually you’re kissing the side of their face. There’s hot lights and you’re wearing, ‘I’m sorry, I smell,’ tanner – it’s not sexy!”

On the dancing skits with Shelton Benjamin: 

“When I worked with Shelton and we were dancing together on the side of the apron – OK fine, except for the fact that he was covered in sweat from not only himself but from other men,” Maria laughed. “I’m trying not to fall off the apron, meanwhile also trying to pay attention to what’s going on around me so I don’t get knocked off the side. It’s not that sexy!”
