A debut at WWE WrestleMania is something extremely special and reserved for a very select few throughout the event’s history.
The WWE world is ever changing and there are quite a few interesting names on the market that WWE might hire for a first ever appearance at the Grandest Stage of Them All.
Here are five debuts we could see at WWE WrestleMania 41.
5. Hikuleo
Ever since news broke of WWE signing NJPW’s Hikuleo to a contract back in July last year, fans have speculated when we would see the giant star show up.
As the New Bloodline vs. OG Bloodline storyline passed by, so too did an obvious way to introduce Hikuleo, with the brother of Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa seeming like an obvious fir for Solo Sikoa’s outfit.
While reports have suggested Hikuleo will start out in NXT, those plans may well have changed by now. A debut at WrestleMania 41 would be about as big as it gets and immediately push Hikuleo as big player on the roster.
Debuting and screwing over Jacob Fatu in his potential United States Championship match at Solo Sikoa’s request could be the perfect way to bring him in. Setting up more Bloodline warfare post-WrestleMania.

4. Brock Anderson
Ever since leaving AEW in 2023, Brock Anderson has been a mainstay on the American indie scene. He is currently signed to a deal with MLW, however has only made a handful of appearances for them.
Brock is, of course, the son of the legendary WWE Hall of Famer Arn Anderson, who has a strong connection to Cody Rhodes. While he would not exactly be the one who would receive a big entrance and a marquee WrestleMania match right from the start, his services might be needed at the show of shows.
John Cena, the WrestleMania opponent for Cody Rhodes, is not alone. He is there because of The Rock. You could argue that Cody Rhodes needs an outside enforcer for his WrestleMania match.

3. Gisele Shaw
On the women’s side, we have Gisele Shaw, who left TNA Wrestling last year.
Although she has made a few appearances since her exit – most notably for Maple Leaf Pro Wrestling – things have been rather quiet for the former Progress World Women’s Champion.
Undoubtedly, she is still hungry and ready to collect gold, and could turn her attention to WWE Women’s United States Champion Chelsea Green, who feels too secure with her new Secret Hervice…
With Green not having an opponent for WrestleMania 41 at the time of writing, maybe, just maybe, Gisele Shaw is the one to answer a potential open challenge.

2. Alex Hammerstone
Technically speaking, Alex Hammerstone already made his WWE debut, appearing for two matches in NXT last Fall. However, we are talking about a WWE debut that is attached to a full-on main roster contract with the company.
So this is, for sure, totally different! But how would Hammerstone make his debut at WrestleMania, and why?
Here is where things get interesting. He is a veteran in this industry, and he has the shape of a WWE Superstar prototype.
And that is why Hammerstone might be the perfect guy to appear and pick the bones of one of the many stars to take a loss at WrestleMania. Everyone should watch their back. A shark is swimming in the waters.

1. Jeff Cobb
Massive and extremely talented. That is the one and only Jeff Cobb.
Some reports say that Cobb is already listed on WWE’s internal roster, despite recently competing in NJPW. So, it is seemingly only a matter of time until one of the best heavyweights on the planet enters a WWE ring for the first time.
WrestleMania seems to be perfectly suited for that. Whether he attacks someone, joins a team or simply wins a suprise match, he is going to make a big difference for the company and a big impression at the show of shows.
At 42-years-old, Cobb’s run in WWE likely won’t be a massively long one but that’s not to say it can’t be filled with memorable moments, and there is truly none bigger than a debut at The Show of Shows.
