News On WrestleMania 31 Start Times And The WWE Network, WWE European Tour Attendance

- It was confirmed this week that the doors will open at Levi's Stadium for WrestleMania 31 at 1:30pm local time, which is 4:30pm EST. This means that activity inside the stadium will begin around 2pm local time and we can expect a few matches on the pre-show.
