The grandeur of WrestleMania always brings out the biggest stars from around the world. The very best stars from sports, music and entertainment make their presence felt at WWE's biggest event of the year.
In the past we've seen names like Mr. T, Pamela Anderson, Muhammed Ali, Motörhead and Mike Tyson all appear in some capacity. That being said, let's take a look at the top five WrestleMania celebrity guests of the last decade.
#5 Michael Che and Colin Jost at WrestleMania 35

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
Colin Jost and Michael Che of Saturday Night Live fame appeared on the March 4, 2019 episode of Monday Night RAW.
In a backstage segment, they were confronted by The Monster Amongst Men Braun Strowman. Colin Jost disrespected Braun by questioning pro-wrestling's legitimacy. Strowman responded by choking Jost. An act which ultimately struck fear in the pair.
The duo tried to apologize to the former WWE Universal Champion by buying him a car. Strowman decided to use his monsterous strength to tear the car apart in the parking lot.
Eventually, Braun invited Jost to compete with him in the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal at WrestleMania. Che agreed for Jost, who then confirmed Che would also compete in the match.
Things didn't get any better for the Saturday Night Live pair at WrestleMania. In fact, they both decided to hide under the ring for the majority of the Battle Royal. In the end, they entered late trying to eliminate Strowman, only for Braun to overpower them and throw them outside of the ring to win the match.
Later in the night, in the treatment room, there was more disaster for Jost and Che. The host for the night, Alexa Bliss, appeared to advise them that Braun is really a nice guy and that two doctors would now examine them. The doctors turned out to be Kevin Nash and Scott Hall, with Nash putting on a rubber glove advising that he was ready for their prostate examination.
All in all, many in the WWE Universe may wonder what was the point of it all. Braun Strowman spoke to Sports Illustrated to state the whole storyline was good for his character:
"'Mania was great, I had the opportunity to work with some pop culture guys doing a little bridging outside of the gap of what I’ve normally done with my character. That was a good thing because it got my face out in front of more mainstream media and audiences that don’t necessarily watch wrestling. We were just talking about this at work, and I want to say it had 257 million views in outlets outside of wrestling in a matter of a week. It wasn’t ideally what I wanted to do at WrestleMania, but it was a good thing to do at WrestleMania," Braun Strowman said. (h/t The Sportster)
Jost and Che are yet appear in WWE since their WrestleMania storyline with Braun.
#4 Shaquille O'Neal at WrestleMania 32
In the biggest WrestleMania ever, Shaquille O'Neal made his in-ring WWE debut in front of 101,763 fans. He was revealed as a surprise entrant into the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal.
O'Neal ended up having a stand-off with The Big Show, one of the only men in the world who can stand toe-to-toe with Shaq. The former LA Lakers Center eliminated Damien Sandow, which disappointed the WWE Universe, before a whole host of WWE superstars eliminated O'Neal and The Big Show together.
In the past, it has been speculated that the two giants were going to collide in a match at WrestleMania. The one-on-one match never came to fruition in WWE, but at least we had some sort of confrontation between the pair in Dallas.
#3 Logan Paul at WrestleMania 37
Controversial YouTube sensation and boxing star Logan Paul appeared at WrestleMania 37 in the corner of Sami Zayn. Zayn was feuding with his long-time friend and foe, Kevin Owens, and they were set to go one-on-one. KO picked up the victory following the stunner on Sami.
After the match, Logan Paul came into the ring to congratulate Kevin Owens. This enraged Sami Zayn, but Logan shoved him out of the way. He continued to celebrate with Owens until KO turned around and gave him a stunner to the delight of the WWE Universe.
Speaking on the IMPAULSIVE podcast, Logan Paul described his reaction backstage following the moment:
"It was awesome. I haven’t had that much fun in a while. I was walking backstage after the Stunner and giggling the whole time, just having so much fun. I didn’t know I was going to roll because I didn’t know he was going to Stunner me. I thought he was going to be cool with me. He got me good," Logan Paul said. (h/t Inside The Ropes)
#2 Rob Gronkowski at WrestleMania 33 and WrestleMania 36
The Gronk has made two WrestleMania appearances in the last decade and both have been noteworthy.
His first at WrestleMania 33 in Orlando saw him enter the ring during the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal on the pre-show. He got into a confrontation with Jinder Mahal at ringside, then decided to hop the barricade and take matters into his own hands. He aided his close friend Mojo Rawley in winning the match after fending off Mahal.
His second WrestleMania appearance came during the two-night WrestleMania 36 event in which he hosted. Gronkowski's duties came to an abrupt end when he successfully became the WWE 24/7 Champion to the shock of the WWE locker room.
#1 Bad Bunny at WrestleMania 37
Not only did Bad Bunny earn the respect of the WWE locker room, but he also earned the respect of the WWE Universe. The rapper came into the company performing his hit song "Booker T" alongside the Hall of Famer. Little did we know that a few months later, Bad Bunny would step into the ring at WrestleMania and surprise us all.
He teamed up with Damian Priest against The Miz and John Morrison. He impressed everyone so much that it looked like he had been performing in the ring for years. Triple H revealed to Lucha Libre Online that Bad Bunny had been training for months ahead of WrestleMania:
"What they don't know is that he's been in the Performance Center for the last 3 to 4 months training every day. He wanted to do this. He moved himself to Orlando. He's been there every day working; I mean hard," Triple H said. (h/t ewrestling)
Bunny and Priest picked up the victory at WrestleMania, and the Puerto Rican rapper rode off into the sunset to go on a musical tour. There's no doubt he will be back in WWE someday.
