A WWE Hall of Famer says being part of WrestleMania 39 is an honor.

On the February 27 episode of WWE Raw, Trish Stratus made her return to help Becky Lynch and Lita defeat Damage CTRL’s Dakota Kai and IYO SKY to win the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships.

On this past Monday’s Raw, Stratus challenged Damage CTRL to a six-woman tag team match against herself, Lynch and Lita at WrestleMania 39.

Speaking on WWE’s The Bump, Trish was asked to describe what being part of WrestleMania more than 20 years after her WWE debut meant to her. She answered:

“First of all, it’s shocking. I did an autograph signing the other week, and the dad was telling me how I had these moments, and then the son… so I said, ‘Wow, so you’ve grown up watching me. Now you’re growing up watching me.’”

“That’s crazy, that we’re still doing our thing all these years later. We went out there, the things we did, the work we did, it was all for what the girls are doing now, it was for a change, it was for us to have representation to have a voice out there and really, seeing what the girls are doing now and to be able to dabble in and be among the girls and get a little taste of it as well, it’s amazing.”

“To watch it up close and live and see how professional and these amazing athletes these women are, having these moments, making history, and honestly to be alongside of it, it’s an honor, and it’s everything we could ask for when we were coming up.”

When asked about Bayley’s 2016 tweet in which she stated that she wanted to face Stratus and Lita, Trish replied:

“Well, dreams do come true. Maybe you should have her on The Bump afterwards and say, ‘How do you feel?’ after we whoop her ass at WrestleMania. See how she feels about putting that out there.”
