3. Pam Anderson In The Ring
The WWE has always courted celebrities to help enhance their brand and bring crossover appeal to their product. Ever since WrestleMania’s inception, celebrities have been heavily used in this capacity, sometimes for the better, sometimes for the worse.
In 1995, Pamela Anderson made a couple appearances with the company, most notably accompanying Diesel to the ring at WrestleMania XI. His opponent, Shawn Michaels, came to the ring with Jenny McCarthy (both women had done Playboy, so that’s most likely the connection here). Diesel eventually won the match, and left with both women at his side.
