Trish Stratus On Potential WWE Return, What It Would Take For Her To Go Back

Trish Stratus returned to the ring for a feud with Becky Lynch that ended at Payback 2023, and she weighed in on another possible return recently. Stratus spoke with Gorilla Position about her comeback and why another potential return is difficult for her to say a definitive yes or no to.

On if the feud with Lynch was her last in-ring appearance: “I don’t know. It’s a tough one. Since I left, retired in 2006, I always said, ‘Look, number one, if I knew I could come back and do something fans would love, it could challenge me, and it would check some boxes, you know, elevating someone, working with some new talent, doing something that hasn’t been done before, I would come back.”

On wanting to make sure she can give her all: “And if I watched my matches back and I was like, ‘Uh, moving slow, it’s not happening,’ because you never know until you’re back in the ring, believe me. There was a moment where I’d watch, and I was like, ‘Can I still do this?’ Because you can do your own practicing and you can do your own runs at home, but until you get into the ring and do it out there, it’s a big different story.”

On what it would take to go back: “If I say I go back and stuff, it needs to be for something really great. It needs to be a really great story. I’m all about story, I’m all about character forwarding, and so if it’s a great story that we can put forth, it’s something I certainly would approach. And I know I do have enough gas in the tank, so that’s good to go, I can check that box. It depends on who would be presented to me creatively.”
