Trish Stratus during a recent interview with Divadirt.com:
What she would have booked for WrestleMania 28:
“Personally, I would’ve loved to see Natalya and Beth go and run
towards ‘Mania. If you’d asked me a year ago what I would book for
‘Mania this year, I would’ve had Beth and Nattie run together as a team
and I would’ve done the Triple H/Batista angle where I would’ve had
[Natalya] turned and at the end, we’d
have those two at WrestleMania. To me that would’ve been an epic moment.
Maybe that would’ve been a good time for Nattie to win the championship
back or something like that.”
John Morrison “cold shoulder” following WrestleMania 27:
“It probably blew up more than it did between us. It was one of those
moments where he was straight up saying, ‘I’m just not really a fan of
you coming in’, and that’s fine, everybody’s entitled to their opinion.
It’s just unfortunate that his personal feelings translated to our match
and that’s where I had the problem.
“We had that moment after
Raw where that cold shoulder happened and I said to him, ‘It’s too bad
that that happened’. I shook hands, I said, ‘It was a pleasure working
with you. Personally I’m a fan. I love the idea of John Morrison and
Trish Stratus as a team. I think it would’ve been cool’.”
“If I
go back, if we had been on the same page with things, we could’ve
created some awesome moments between us. Like when Carlito and I were a
tag team, we had similar styles and we got some really neat, memorable
moments. I think John Morrison and I — that’s what I was excited about
doing, something like this. To me, it’s just unfortunate that we
couldn’t get on the page. I wish I had known he was totally on the other
side of the page and maybe [there] would’ve been a different approach
altogether, rather than finding out live on Raw. [Laughs] But we’re all
entitled to our opinions, it’s one of those things – you don’t miss what
you never had.”
Whether there was a double standard because
she was a female and if he’d have done the same thing with a male legend
like Stone Cold or The Rock:
“Maybe he thought he could do
that a little bit more to me than he could to one of the male
Superstars. Maybe there is a double-edged sword there. But who knows?
It’s fine. We move on.”
On Natalya flatulence gimmick:
“I haven’t seen it so I can’t comment on it directly, but hopefully
it’s one of those things where it just gets people talking and it’s kind
of like the Molly Holly thing where [we had] the ‘junk in the trunk’
[storyline]. People were like, ‘I can’t believe they’re doing that to
her’, but at the end of the day, it got people interested, it got people
invested, it got people into what they’re doing and you have something
to talk about.”
