“Stone Cold” Steve Austin has made it no secret he will be in New Orleans, not jyst for the Hall of Fame, but for WrestleMania as well. Many expect Austin to make an appearance, and he has teased as much.
“Rowdy” Roddy Piper has gotten his wish and will also be in town for the event. Roddy also teased an appearance on the PPV.
The latest names to be confirmed as being in town on the WWE’s dime are Charles “Godfather / Papa Shango” Wright, who some feel could do a cameo as Papa Shango, or possibly both gimmick. Also in town are “The Genius” Lanny Poffo, which is quite a surprise, as well as the wrestling referee “Dangerous” Danny Davis.
It’s reported that WWE has contacted dozens of talent to attend the event for a chance at cameo shots to pay respect to the 30 year history of WrestleMania.
