'Jersey Shore' Meets 'RAW': Snooki Gets Ready to Wrestle With WWE
by Elizabeth Sexton
Pro wrestling costumes typical require spandex, shiny vinyl boots, a colorful mask, perhaps a cape…and now spray tans?
Jersey Shore star Snooki will bring her fashion flair and guidette-game to "WWE Raw" next Monday. Rumor has it, Snooki will be creating an angle to become part of WrestleMania 27.
Snooki was previously seen on TNA – well, sort of. When fellow Shore star, Jenni “JWoww” Farley jumped into the ring for TNA, she was fake slapped by a fake Snooki.
Similarly, Angelina Pivarnick (another Shore mate) made an appearance on TNA. Ratings actually fell during this stunt (from a 1.52 to a 1.17), so fans are cautious about Snooki’s moves.
Regardless, both shows seem to be winning. "Jersey Shore" is consistently the highest rated cable show. Last week the show held about 7.7 million viewers, while WWE Entertainment came in just below with 5.6 million viewers.
