WWE: 'This match almost didn't happen'


Trish Stratus she is one of the oldest women wwe legends of history, and the company has remembered him as part of history many times.

Evolution 2, earlier this year in Atlanta, was one such moment, and Trish had the opportunity to wrestle for the WWE Women's Championship against Tiffany Stratton.

Stratus recently took to Instagram to reveal why this match almost didn't happen, noting that it was her mother who convinced her to be on the show.

This match almost didn't happen. When my mom got sick, I thought it wasn't the right time to walk away, but she said, “Do it. Do what you can, while you can.” Those words come across differently now. It wasn't just about fighting, it was about life. About showing up, even when it's hard. About finding strength in the things that make you feel alive. I am so thankful that I did… and that I was able to share this ring with my little sister @tiffanywwe – who deserves all his flowers. It was special in more ways than one. Exactly one month later, my mother passed away…but she got to see me do what I love, one last time. 🩶🪽
