WWE is making some incredible guest appearances in anticipation of WrestleMania XL. Recently, all eyes have been on the famous faces from Hollywood and the music industry who will be attending to grace the grand event. To make things even more exciting, a renowned bodybuilding icon has also confirmed his attendance at The Show of Shows.

Despite securing their spots in the multi-team ladder match for the Undisputed Tag Team Titles, there’s uncertainty looming over Waller and Theory’s participation. Rumors swirl that they might be pulled from the match, with WWE reportedly convening a meeting this week to address the situation.
According to wrestling analyst Dave Meltzer, the path that Waller and Theory are now on to the ‘Show of Shows’ may encounter a roadblock. He said, “By the way, even though Theory and Waller won. It is not necessarily that they’re going to be in that match. They might be. There is a meeting upcoming where they will make a decision on that.”
