Folks, big news in the world of WWE nostalgia—Hall of Famer Trish Stratus might not be done yet! After surprising fans with her Royal Rumble return at #25, speculation has been running wilder than Hulk Hogan’s storytelling about whether we’ll see more of the seven-time Women’s Champion.
And according to Fightful Select, the answer is: Yes! Maybe! Probably!
What’s Next for Trish?
With Elimination Chamber 2025 set for March 1 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada—AKA Stratus’ hometown—it’s looking very likely that WWE wants to cash in on some hometown nostalgia. And if that wasn’t enough, we’re also creeping up on the 25th anniversary of Trish’s WWE debut (March 19, 2000, in case you need to feel old today).
Will she wrestle? Will she just wave to the crowd and leave? Will WWE book her to eliminate 17 people from the Chamber just for the heck of it? We don’t know! But the Toronto crowd will lose their minds either way!
Trish’s Recent WWE Run (or: “How She Proved She’s Still Got It”)
- 2023 Feud with Becky Lynch: Trish turned heel, ran Damage CTRL for a bit, and gave us some fantastic matches against The Man.
- Wrestled at Payback 2023: Steel Cage match vs. Becky? Instant classic.
- 2025 Royal Rumble: Entered at #25, probably just to remind everyone she’s been doing this for 25 years.
Who’s Already in the Elimination Chamber?
While Trish’s role is still unclear, the Chamber matches are shaping up nicely:
🔥 Women’s Chamber:
✅ Liv Morgan
✅ Bianca Belair
✅ Alexa Bliss (recently returned, probably still evil, TBD)
🔥 Men’s Chamber:
✅ Drew McIntyre
✅ CM Punk (expect at least 15 minutes of talking before he enters the match)
✅ John Cena (let’s see if he still remembers how to take a bump)
Plus, tomorrow night on Raw, we’ll see:
➡️ Bayley vs. Lyra Valkyria in a Women’s qualifier
➡️ Logan Paul vs. Rey Mysterio in a Men’s qualifier (expect brass knuckles, sneaky roll-ups, and at least one Prime energy drink plug)
Final Verdict: Will Trish Stratus Be at Elimination Chamber?
All signs point to YES, because WWE never misses an opportunity to milk nostalgia (see: Goldberg, The Rock, Undertaker’s 37th retirement match, etc.). Whether she wrestles, manages, or just gives a heartfelt promo about her career, one thing is certain: Toronto is getting some STRATUSFACTION.
