The return of Trish Stratus (and Lita) has been a refreshing moment in the women’s division over the past few months. Stratus along with Lita and Becky Lynch teamed up for WrestleMania 39 and defeated Damage CTRL.
On the most recent episode of Busted Open Radio, Stratus stated that she went into that match with an injury.
“I had a few obstacles. I had a partially torn hamstring, by the way. Nobody knew about that,” she said. “It was just like, WrestleMania, let’s just go,”she said. “This time, I had this injury, so I was a little unsure going in, but man, there’s something about feeling at home. It’s like riding a bike, as you guys know when we get back in there, your body’s like, ‘I got this just. Just do your thing,’ and it just flows. I’ve kept my health and fitness up, and that always plays into it as well. I am good in those moments, right? I work well under pressure. I always feel like I have to prove myself every time I go out there, so that was like a big driving force for me that evening, was to go out and prove that I belong in this match, that I belong with these other talented women and that I still belong here, period.”
Stratus has since turned heel on both Lita and Becky Lynch after costing them the tag team titles.
