Trish Stratus And Lita Recall Their Iconic WWE RAW Main Event Match

WWE Hall of Famers Trish Stratus and Lita spoke with DS Shin of Ring The Belle on a number of topics, including how she and Lita werenโ€™t told at first that their match would headline RAW.

Stratus said, โ€œAs females there was no like โ€˜Hey, one day weโ€™re gonna lead towards this,โ€™ absolutely not. I donโ€™t even think they wouldโ€™ve thought (โ€ฆ) I think it was in the moment; I think the feud was โ€” everything sort of was in the right place, right time thing.โ€

Lita on her mentality at the time:

โ€œI had built up this mentality of donโ€™t get excited, itโ€™s not gonna happen. Somethingโ€™s going to change, you know.โ€ Stratus then shared Litaโ€™s sentiment, noting how often similar things got scrapped for them. โ€œA lot of it, we did think it was a rib.โ€

Stratus on the backstage kiss not being their idea:

โ€œNot that I wouldnโ€™t kiss (โ€ฆ) I just didnโ€™t โ€” I didnโ€™t think we needed a kiss to start โ€” kick this main event match off.โ€
