10 Wrestling Facts We Didn't Know Last Week (April 3)

WrestleMania is done and dusted, but the controversy isn't!

WrestleMania 31 is in the bag, and WWE now looks forward to the Extreme Rules Pay-Per-View at the end of April. Traditionally, the company really try and put on a good show post-'Mania, possibly realising that they have a catchment of fans milling around for a while who generally don't watch anymore, but only tune in to see WrestleMania. One major problem down throughout the years has been the promotion's ability at keeping those people invested in what's going. It seems that just a few short weeks after WrestleMania, these folks disappear once again, only returning around the Royal Rumble to see what's going on. Maybe that's an issue which needs addressed, but there's a nice buzz about WWE even with those fans who stick around all year. Seth Rollins was a popular choice as champion, and it seems many were pleased with how 'Mania played out. Even WWE themselves seem chuffed, although there are several disagreements - as always - within the company. This list takes in the biggest news stories of the past 7 days, but also draws in some facts that people weren't necessarily fully aware of until this past week. A lot of it, naturally, revolves around 'Mania and the WWE Hall Of Fame, but there's also some other interesting tidbits.
