WWE Tag Team Champions Honor A Tribe Called Quest’s Phife Dawg With "Can I Kick It?" Chant

Since his death last week, tributes have been pouring in for A Tribe Called Quest‘s Phife Dawg. Fellow Tribe founder Q-tip honored him with a two-hour mix on his “Abstract Radio” show; Tim Westwood shared an unreleased freestyle of his from 1999; and numerous artists–including Kendrick Lamar, El-P, Questlove, Chance the Rapper, and more–paid their respects to the late rapper. Now, professional wrestling trio the New Day–the current WWE Tag Team Champions–have entered the ring with their own tribute. Before their “WWE Raw” match tonight, they decided to taunt their WrestleMania opponents, a group called the League of Nations. During that promo, they took a moment to honor the late Phife Dawg by leading the crowd in a chant of “Can I Kick It?” Watch it below (starting at 1:44).

Just yesterday, it was announced that Snoop Dogg will become the first musician inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame.
