– One of the most talked about subjects backstage at WrestleMania was Jim Ross not being involved in the show. The decision was made by Vince.

– As previously noted, The Undertaker is still expected to take some time off from WWE following WrestleMania. To update on this, he’s still booked for some upcoming TV tapings, but not the European tour.

– The Toronto Star has a story up on Toronto trying to get WrestleMania again in 2012 — 10 years after the Canadian city hosted the Hogan vs. Rock match. WWE is telling cities to bid for WrestleManias between 2012 and 2014. The company is getting the cities to fight for the events, since they know they bring so much money to the local economies.

– Former WCW, WWE and TNA star Booker T was spotted at the Century City, CA theatre for the UFC show on Saturday.
