— WWE was selling a “25 Years of Y2J” shirt designed to look like a New York Rangers jersey.
— The show was sold out with 19,224 fans in attendance.
— WWE used their regular house show set but had a full lighting truss. The steel cage was hanging over the ring.
— The show opened with a WrestleMania video.
— The announce team was JBL, Rich Brennan and Byron Saxton.
— Zack Ryder beat Bo Dallas in the opening match with the Rough Ryder.
— Mark Henry beat Brad Maddox with the World’s Strongest Slam. Maddox had blonde hair.
