Rumours began circulating this past weekend that WWE had contacted Victoria to appear at WrestleMania 25 on April 5th. Despite retiring from the company just earlier this year, in January, the word is that Victoria – real name Lisa Marie Varon – is still under contract to the WWE and thus chances of her appearing are likely.
Unlike Trish Stratus or Lita, Victoria was not at the end of her contract at the time of her retirement. Her leave came amid a slew of releases, thus it is likely that she and WWE agreed upon her release as Varon had talked about retiring last year. Therefore, rather than retiring at the end of her contract, Victoria was released from the company but WWE were gracious enough to let her retire rather than the standard ‘future endeavors’ message.
Like all ex-Superstars, it is likely that Lisa has a 90 day no-compete clause which would keep her bound to the company. That 90 day clause expires just a little after WrestleMania.
