The trio is facing Damage CTRL’s Bayley, IYO SKY, and Dakota Kai. Stratus was chatting with SHAK Wrestling’s Shakeil Mahjouri when asked if there are more matches to come for her or if this ‘Mania bout was a “one-off” thing.
Stratus notes that for now, “let’s get to WM” and “see what’s gonna happen”. She reveals that she’s currently a judge for the Canada’s Got Talent show, plus, she’s still a businesswoman and mom of two.
Trish states that it’s been “quite the balance” being on the road, managing her business, and having two little ones. While she does have childcare in place, she trains from 9 p.m. until midnight after she puts her children to bed.
Stratus also says that she can’t do this (wrestling) full-time because she does have other jobs. However, she notes that she’ll have to go to ‘Mania to see what happens next.

During a recent edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer notes that there are rumors that Stratus could turn heel. The end result would be a program with “The Man” Becky Lynch, heading into this year’s SummerSlam.
While this is just “buzz” and not confirmed, Meltzer also says that what has been confirmed is that there are twists and turns on the horizon for Trish Stratus’s WrestleMania 39 storyline. Fans will have to wait and see.
