WWE Raw saw a brief return to the company for one of the most outlandish stars in history.

Chelsea Green was in action on Monday Night Raw as part of the battle royal to find a new number one contender for the Women’s World Title. Rhea Ripley now knows her challenger for Survivor Series but it is not Green or her fellow WWE Women’s Tag Team Champion Piper Niven.

After the match, Chelsea Green was unhappy at her lack of success and wanted to know who was to blame for putting her in the bout. During her backstage rant shared on social media, she came across former WWE star Snitsky who wanted Green to know that it wasn’t his fault.

Who is former WWE star Snitsky?

Snitsky made his on-screen WWE debut on the 13th of September 2004 edition of Raw and it is memorable for all the wrong reasons. In his first bout in the company, the newcomer took on Kane and looked to make his mark by slamming a chair into the WWE Hall of Famer’s back.

Long-time fans will cringe to remember that the chair shot led to Kane landing on Lita, who in storyline was pregnant with his child, leading her to miscarry the baby. That led to the “It wasn’t my fault” catchphrase being born.

Snitsky then feuded with Kane for several months with the storyline coming to an end on the 31st of January 2005 edition of Raw when Kane defeated Snitsky in a Steel Cage match.

Snitsky is also remembered for his foot fetish gimmick in the company before he was ultimately released from his deal in December 2008. Snitsky is a Pennsylvania native so it is likely he was just visiting his former colleagues at the show in Wilkes-Barrer and he wrestled as recently as September 2023 for MLW.
