WWE Hall Of Famer, Trish Stratus has posted a lengthy message on her final WWE match, noting how she passed the torch on to Charlotte Flair.
Stratus announced that her match with Charlotte was going to be her last prior to WWE SummerSlam taking place, and she noted on Instagram that it was an honor to step in the ring with her.
Stratus took time to thank the women of the current roster for allowing her to make a return, claiming she passed on the torch to Charlotte, who she believes is one of the very best of her era.
Her full post said, “One week ago I stepped into the ring for what at first was my comeback match… but slowly realized was my farewell match, a passing of the proverbial torch if you will. It was an honor and a privilege to step into the ring with @charlottewwe, one of the very best of her era, a total pro. Feeling immense gratitude to the current roster of woman who allowed me to dip my toes into their current waters. In the beginning of my career, I set out to knock down the preconceived notion of what a female could do in this male-oriented business and the current roster of ladies represent everything we dreamed of. If we laid the platform, you all have built a friggin skyscraper and we all couldn’t be prouder! And now I get to sit back and watch my girls (tagged #smackdownlive) continue to take the women’s division to new heights…”
