9. The Godfather
The Godfather was a character in professional wrestling throughout the 1990s and into the early 2000s. He was set up as a caricature of a pimp, frequently taking to the ring with a group of scantily clad, attractive women. He’d then walk around with the microphone in his hands saying things you’d never believe he’d be able to get away with. Sometimes he’d even ask audience members to roll him a “fatty”. The man behind the character, Charles Wright, has openly admitted to smoking weed as well.

This was the peak of the Attitude era, and it was clear the WWE upper management had no idea what they were really dealing with. The Godfather has since given interviews in regards to that time period saying he was able to talk rather openly about marijuana use because the upper management had little familiarity with his slang.
