WRESTLEMANIA NEWS AND NOTES

By Mike Johnson on 2015-03-26 18:23:04

Sheamus is in San Jose, CA so if WWE decides to place him in the Andre the Giant Battle Royal as a surprise, he's ready to go.

Also spotted in town so far this weekend are Ric Flair, Michelle McCool (obviously with Undertaker, who arrived at the WWE hotel today), Jim Neidhart, Ricky Steamboat and Diamond Dallas Page.

There is a lot of excitement among the NXT crew as they have the tournament tonight at AXXESS, matches and appearances all weekend and the main event (for them), the big show at San Jose University. Some seats were released for the NXT show but they are expected to be sold out well before belltime, so if you want to attend, go to Ticketmaster ASAP.

Our friends at www.RingsideCollectibles.com are holding a "March to Wrestlemania" sale on action figures, signed items and more currently.
