Trish Stratus Says Her WWE Return Went Smoothly

Trish Stratus is back in WWE, and now she is on the road to WrestleMania alongside Becky Lynch and Lita. Although there are a few twists and turns coming for that storyline along the way, the WWE Universe has really appreciated that extra dose of Stratusfaction.

Although rumors of her WWE return leaked weeks before it actually happened, with reported plans to bring her back sooner, but they held off. Trish Stratus is back in WWE, and it’s like riding a bike for her.

While speaking with Adam Silverstein on Getting Over, Trish Stratus was asked about reports that she was set to return earlier than what was planned on television. She was quick to shut that down, because her return went according to plan without any change in direction.

“No, everything has been pretty smooth, to be honest. I know there were little online rumblings, but everything happens for a reason. There are definitely a lot of gut intuitions going into making these decisions, and I think we landed at the right place at the right time. I’m excited where it landed. It’s just enough time before Mania, it’s the right dynamic, the right timing, the girls have the tag team titles, unexpected.

What a moment. Nobody expected that. For me, there was so much buzz about me, people forgot about me, then I surprised them again. Everything played out really well, I think, in a way where this world can be predicted, ‘ah, we know what’s happening tonight,’ I think we did it in a nice way that it’s exciting and people didn’t know what’s coming next. Still, there is so much more that can happen between now and Mania. It’s exciting. There is a good build up now, because when I came back for Charlotte, we didn’t have much time to build it. Here, we have a nice little bit of time to build into Mania.”

Trish Stratus could wrestle in a six-woman tag team match at WrestleMania alongside Becky Lynch and Lita, with Damage CTRL on the opposing side. We will have to see how WWE does this, because the WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles are also in play here, with Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler reportedly in line for a title match as well.
