Clients can now punt on certain names making an in-house appearance during the show on Sunday. The list contains not only wrestling personalities, but famous faces that have either been associated with WWE in the past or who live in the Los Angles area.
Here are the odds as of 1:20am BST today

The traders have evidently done their homework with some of the unique names that appear. A few thoughts on some of the selections:
Freddie Prinze, Jr
A WWE fan who once worked for the company.
Batista
Extremely unlikely. He's going to be in the UK this weekend doing promotional work for the James Bond movie - Spectre.
Arnold Schwarzenegger
Might be worth a punt considering he was inducted into the Hall of Fame earlier this year and is featured on the latest WWE video game.
Chyna
If she's there, I'll give you the money myself!*
Spike Dudley
Some people might have a punt at those odds thinking he'll be brought in to counteract Xavier Woods.
Bill Simmons
He's recently left ESPN, so I don't know if WWE will want to acknowledge him if he's in the audience as the company is trying to develop some kind of relationship with ESPN. I listen to Simmons' podcast and he always mentions WWE events at Staples Center so it's possible that he will be there. If he's there, you'll be betting on a judgement call from the producers. That's my guess, anyway.
Shaquille O'Neal
Has appeared on WWE TV in the past.
The Rock
Is it too early for him to make an appearance to set up what ever it is that is planned for WrestleMania?
As per usual, these bets are paid out if the person is 'in-house' so they have to be featured either in the ring or within the arena. Backstage segments do not count.
This market is found alongside other Hell in a Cell match and prop markets under 'USA' in the 'Special Bets' section of the Betfair Website.
