Triple H teases celebrity appearances at WrestleMania 41
WWE Head of Creative Triple H recently opened up about potential celebrity appearances at WrestleMania 41. The Showcase of Immortals will be held at Allegiant Stadium, Paradise, Nevada, on April 20 and 21, 2025.
Like every year, WrestleMania XL also featured multiple celebrity appearances. Several popular names, including Snoop Dogg, Lil Wayne, Meek Mill, and more, were part of the show. NFL stars Jason Kelce & Lane Johnson and YouTube streamer IShowSpeed got closer to the action and were directly involved in matches.
During his appearance on the Roommates Show, Triple H claimed that a large number of celebrities have expressed their desires to be at the show. The Game pointed out that since it would not be possible for the wrestling promotion to have everyone on the show, only the biggest names and those making sense storyline-wise would be picked:
"I have a celebrity list a mile long from people that want to do something for WrestleMania in April Vegas at Allegiant Stadium. We just don't have the real estate to do it with them, so we'll pick the biggest ones and the ones that make sense storyline wise, and we'll do it with them. But it's incredible, the amount of people that want to be involved," he said. [From 1:22:50 to 1:23:13]

Triple H shares details behind a popular celebrity's in-ring appearance at WrestleMania 37
World-famous musician Bad Bunny made his in-ring debut at WrestleMania 37 when he teamed up with Damian Priest to defeat the team of The Miz and John Morrison.
Earlier in the podcast, Triple H shared backstage details about how Bad Bunny's appearance came about. The former World Champion pointed out that the musician was not on tour due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It was when the two parties talked about Bad Bunny's appearance at The Show of Shows. He added that Bad Bunny rented a house in Orlando to train at the Performance Center:
"During the pandemic, Bad Bunny is like a huge fan. For the first time in forever, he wasn't touring, and he had some downtime. We talked, and he was like, 'Man, dream come true if I could do something with you guys.' We came up with a plan. He wanted to do it, and he went and rented a house in Orlando. At that time, I was at the Performance Center, probably three or four days a week in Orlando. [...] He'd be all beat up, and he'd wear pads all over him 'cause he was killing himself. But he'd be in there every day 'cause he wanted it to be good," he said. [From 26:37 onwards]
After competing in the 2022 Royal Rumble Match, Bad Bunny returned to the squared circle at WWE Backlash 2023 to defeat Damian Priest in a San Juan Street Fight. It will be interesting to see if the musician competes in a wrestling match ever again.
