Wrestlemania 39 season will be kicked off through the 2023 Royal Rumble event in January which is the busiest period of the year in WWE. The company will host its biggest annual event on Saturday, April 1st, and Sunday, 2nd, 2023, in Los Angeles, California. The catchline of the event is “WrestleMania Goes Hollywood” where there will be a number of celebrity superstars onboard.
This goes beyond the professional wrestling circuit, of course. WWE has always wanted to utilize mainstream names in their programming on bigger occasions and Wrestlemania 39 will be no different. The Rock and John Cena aren’t the only Hollywood Megastars that the company wants to bring in for their WrestleMania Hollywood edition.
WWE Royal Rumble 2023: Major Changes Expected In Rumble Matches
The Rock or John Cena won’t be only celebrities at Wrestlemania
Dave Meltzer recently discussed WrestleMania 39 in an edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter. Per his revelation, WWE is attempting to book numerous celebrities to the show since the theme revolves around Hollywood. Obviously, these names will bring along the attention that comes with their presence,
“WWE is trying to get a lot of celebrity involvement in the show with the theme of being from Hollywood, and the mainstream attention that comes from celebrities being there.”

Wrestlemania 39 to gather in a lot of megastars in WWE
According to the report by Meltzer, WWE co-CEO Nick Khan has several connections with people in the sports and entertainment business since he previously used to work as an agent. So, the expectation is that he could bring in some outside talent for the show.
Ringside News previously reported that John Cena has been in touch with WWE higher-ups for a possible matchup at Wrestlemania 39 and he also received Vince McMahon’s blessing. McMahon’s absence won’t be a factor for WWE to insert him into a match capacity if he’s available. Hence, fans might just see Cena compete for the first time in a WWE ring since SummerSlam 2021.
WWE has drawn a lot of success via Steve Austin’s in-ring return earlier this year for Wrestlemania 38. The Texas Rattlesnake is also reportedly listening to offers for WrestleMania 39 for another match. He’s also in a jacked shape as spotted in a video posted on Instagram. Plus, The Rock may join in Roman Reigns for an epic battle that’s been rumored for such a long time.
