10 Fascinating WWE WrestleMania 31 Facts
7. Paige Became The First 90s Born Wrestler To Compete At WrestleMania
There are eight WrestleManias that are older than Paige. That fact alone is enough to horrify many readers of these lists, particularly those who settled into the 'Manias of the red, white, and blue-rope era like a warm bath. Most WWE fans knew Paige was rather young, but to have it put into that context is at least somewhat jarring.
At the time of Paige and AJ Lee's victory over The Bella Twins in Santa Clara, the second-generation wrestler was only 22 years old. Her main roster debut a year earlier put her in position to be the first 90s-born match participant in WrestleMania's long history.
Since then, two other wrestlers born in that decade have taken part in WrestleMania matches, both at WrestleMania 32: Sasha Banks in the women's triple threat, and Bo Dallas in the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal.
