After losing the Intercontinental Title to Rey Mysterio, JBL "quit" the WWE.

2009 Hall of Famer Stone Cold Steve Austin had a beer celebration on the show.

The scheduled Unified WWE Tag Team Championship Lumberjack Match took place prior to WrestleMania coming on the air. I assume it will be on the DVD release.

After the match, Mickey Rourke knocked out Chris Jericho with a left hook.
