Pro wrestler Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson attends the WrestleMania XXVII press conference at Hard Rock Cafe New York on March 30, 2011 in New York City.

After months of waiting, WWE WrestleMania 31 is almost here. While the long-awaited matches and opening performance already made the fans excited, most recent news has it that numerous WWE legends are set to appear on the biggest pay-per-view of the year.

With less than a week until the big show, reports noted that Concussion Legacy Foundation co-founder Chris Nowinski is already in Dallas for WrestleMania 32. Also, in town are former WWE stars Candice Michelle, Christian, Edge and Beth Phoenix.

WWE star Neville is also in Dallas for the biggest event of the year, where he has been spotted on crutches. The 29-year-old professional wrestler endured a fracture in his left lower leg amid the intense match against Chris Jericho on March 14, Monday night's Raw.

"Neville had some repeat testing done in Orlando which included X-Rays and a CAT scan of his ankle," Dr. Chris Amann told WWE. "Upon further review, it has been determined that surgical repair of the ankle would not be necessary. Instead, he will be treated non-operatively with a cast and crutches."

Dr. Amann added that Neville is expected to be out of action for around 2-3 months. Thus, the injury that the superstar sustained just a couple of weeks before WrestleMania 32, will probably keep him off from the event. Rumor mill has it that Neville will reportedly participate in a ladder match for the WWE Intercontinental Championship.

Meanwhile, the WWE United States Championship match featuring Kalisto vs Ryback will take place on the WrestleMania 32 Kickoff show. The said match will air during the preshow's first hour on WWE Network and WWE's social media accounts, alongside the Dudley Boyz vs The Usos and the Team Total Divas vs. Team Bad Blonde match.

The second hour of the pre-show will feature the 5-on-5 Divas match highlighting Lana, Naomi, Emma, Tamina and Summer Rae against Brie Bella, Natalya, Paige, Eva Marie, Alicia Fox and the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal, Wrestle Zone has learned.

The upcoming 32nd WrestleMania event is set to be the biggest pay-per-view in the WWE's history. Watch the footage below for more information:
