“Jersey Shore” Star Puts Over Snooki at WWE WrestleMania, Announcer Update

Conflicting rumors have been hitting the web all week, but as of press time, it definitely looks like Jim Ross will be announcing for at least a portion of Sunday’s WWE WrestleMania, presumably beginning with the Michael Cole vs. Jerry Lawler match.

Ross reportedly told fans at AXXESS that he will be calling “some” matches on the show.

While the dynamic for the entire show was otherwise unclear, the word is that Josh Matthews will be at the announce table from start-to-finish.

— Though a piece on Snooki receiving $32,000 to speak at Rutgers University, a fee higher than that of commencement speaker and Nobel Prize winner Toni Morrison, has consumed the bulk of weekend media for the “Jersey Shore” star, her WrestleMania appearance did nonetheless prove helpful in getting extra MTV attention for Sunday’s event.

It also received a mention from her “Shore” co-star Pauly D, who Tweeted to his million followers Sunday, “Yo My Dude @JohnCena Watch After My Girl @sn00ki For Me ….. #WrestleMania27.”
