-- The reason given backstage for Jack Swagger and Evan Bourne not having matches at WrestleMania is because the feeling was they hadn't been in the wrestling business long enough to earn a spot on the biggest show of the year.

In Swagger's case, not appearing on WrestleMania likely buried the ECW Championship by not having it defended on the show. It is also believed that Swagger's lackluster performance against Finlay at No Way Out played a part in the ECW Champion being left off the card. Swagger lost points with those in management due to his bad outing at the pay-per-view, so the feeling was he wasn't quite ready for a show as monumental as WrestleMania.
