LAUGHING MATTER
‘What a botch’ – WWE fans in stitches as WrestleMania 40 table blunder wrecks match finish of stunning bout
The botch took place in front of a WWE Hall of Famer and rap legend
WWE fans were left laughing their socks off after a hilarious table botch at WrestleMania 40.

The six men put together a stunning showdown with some hard-hitting spots that included kendo sticks, trash cans and steel chairs.
And the stakes went even higher when rap legend Snoop Dogg was added to provide commentary and WWE Hall of Famer Bubba Ray Dudley was named as Special Guest Referee.
The bout became so brutal that each team's ringside manager went though a table as The Final Testament's Scarlett hit B-Fab with a Russian Legsweep on the furniture.
But that wasn't the last the fans saw of the table in this encounter as Kross got into a heated confrontation with Dudley due to what he believed was a slow count from the ECW legend.
Lashley, Ford and Dawkins took advantage of the heavyweight's distraction and neutralised their opponent.
The trio then decided to finish the ex-NXT Champion with a Frogsplash by Ford through the table.
But as Lashley and Dawkins placed Kross on the table the furniture somehow broke.
The 38-year-old's weight combined with the fact Lashley placed the table in a wrong manner led to the embarrassing botch with some fans even booing.

What made the situation even more awkward was that it all happened in front of Dudley whose legacy is synonymous with table spots as he and his legendary partner D-Von Dudley slammed opponents through the wood for decades.
The three men had to bring another table to the ring and got it right at the second time of asking as Ford flew From the Heavens and went through Kross who was pinned by Lashley.

Funnily enough this is the second time Snoop Dogg is part of a WrestleMania botch as last year he saw Shane McMahon injuring his knee during an impromptu match against The Miz.
That led to the rapper thinking on his feet and taking down Miz with a People's Elbow to save the segment.
