Trish Stratus worked through an injury at WrestleMania 39.
At WrestleMania 39, Trish Stratus teamed with Becky Lynch and Lita to defeat Damage CTRL. Unbeknownst to most, Stratus wrestled that match with a partially torn hamstring, as she revealed on the April 19 episode of Busted Open Radio.
"I had a few obstacles. I had a partially torn hamstring, by the way. Nobody knew about that," she said. "It was just like, WrestleMania, let's just go," she said. "This time, I had this injury, so I was a little unsure going in, but man, there's something about feeling at home. It's like riding a bike, as you guys know when we get back in there, your body's like, 'I got this just. Just do your thing,' and it just flows. I've kept my health and fitness up, and that always plays into it as well. I am good in those moments, right? I work well under pressure. I always feel like I have to prove myself every time I go out there, so that was like a big driving force for me that evening, was to go out and prove that I belong in this match, that I belong with these other talented women and that I still belong here, period."
Trish Stratus was successful that night and would go on to team with Becky Lynch on the April 10 episode of Monday Night Raw, losing the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship for Becky Lynch and Lita before turning heel on Becky Lynch.
