Each year, the Stamford-based company brings in surprise appearances to delight the fans at the venue, as well as the ones watching from their home. While it is mostly kept a surprise, reports from PW Insider suggest the possibility that these five stars might show up in Philly two weeks later.
The list starts with Michelle McCool and moves on to the legendary manager Jimmy Hart. WWE Hall of Famers Ron Simmons, JBL, and Kane could also be at the event.
It has been a long while since either of these stars showed up in the promotion. So, if not all of them, any one of these names could also create an excited ripple among the crowd. Two more WWE legends are set to appear in Philadelphia as part of the Hall of Fame batch of 2024. Unlike the reported names, these two are confirmed to be at the event because they are being inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame this year.

Will WWE have ‘Rocky’ in Philly?
Sylvester Stallone has an iconic relationship with the city of Philadelphia, where Rocky is set. Moreover, the iconic training scene from the movie Rocky makes his appearance much more hype-worthy. Since the montage was shot in Philadelphia, it would make sense if Stallone could take some time out of his busy schedule to appear at the promotion’s event.
