Gene Snitsky’s most infamous WWE moment is being immortalized in action figure form.
Snitsky punted a fake baby on the November 8, 2004, episode of WWE RAW. Snitsky punted the baby after mocking Lita‘s miscarriage, who got pregnant by Kane. He worked this into his gimmick, and it later became a trademark of the monstrous wrestler.
The moment is still talked about to this day, and now, Title Run Toys is producing a Snitsky action figure that comes with a puntable baby.
The retro-style Snitsky figure features articulation points at the head, shoulders, and legs, as well as “an arm to cradle the pint-sized puntable pediatric.”
Snitsky also commented on the announcement, writing the following on Twitter/X: “ITs NOT MY FAULT!!!!! ProUd to announce the first of its kind SNITSKY action figure w baby punting action!!!! Now you can replicate the iconic baby punt right at home!!!! Gets yours at @titleruntoys”
Some fans thought Gene Snitsky kicked a real baby
Snitsky popped as a guest wrestler in a 2024 production of The Last Match: A Pro Wrestling Rock Experience. He appeared alongside Mickie James during the event, which saw him recreate the infamous baby punting spot from his time in WWE.
Snitsky recently told Chris Van Vliet on his Insight podcast that he rehearsed the baby-kicking segment, trying to kick it as high as possible. He also shared how some fans believed the baby was real, and he thought it was crazy that he had to explain it was staged.
“There were a lot of people who thought that the baby was a real baby. I don’t want to by any means talk down about wrestling fans, but there is a small majority of them that see things on TV and whatever they see, they think is real. I’m telling you, as I’m sitting here right now with this amazing beard and ruggedly handsome good looks. I’m telling you, it’s crazy, I’m just like, this TV show is fake. We’re not kicking real babies.”
