I’m back! I know y’all missed me, but I took a little hiatus; having 4 Biology tests in one week will do that to you! Seems like whenever I stop keeping up with the Divas, big things start happening! TNA jabs WWE again, Ashley is hinting (again) at blessing us with her presence and curses out a teenager, Eve wrestled, Natalya gets drafted, and now Maria is set to spaz out on wrestle Michelle McCool this week! While looking around for some worthwhile news, I stumbled upon yet another Trish Stratus interview, this time by SLAM! Magazine. Check out this excerpt from the interview:
Q: Do you feel that women’s wrestling (such as the WWE Divas and the TNA Knockouts) get the attention and respect that it deserves?
Trish: Currently, not as much as it used to get. I was lucky to have been a part of a time when women’s wrestling actually got quite a lot of attention and respect — sometimes as much or more than the men! It did however, take years for us to get there, so maybe the current views about women’s wrestling will see a shift over some time and get it back there. There’s definitely enough talent out there to help get it there.Q: Who is one diva past or present that you wish you can or could have got in the ring and have a match with?
Trish: I think a match-up with Nattie Neidhart or Beth Phoenix would deliver some serious Stratusfaction!Q: Any plans of returning, even for a limited run?
Trish: If the right scenario presented itself — like my recent return in Toronto — it was the right scenario to come out of retirement just to whoop Beth’s a**!Q: Who do consider your greatest rival in wrestling?
Trish: Hands down — Lita.
I’m going to apologize in advance, but is anyone else getting really tired of listening to Trish talk? I mean, I’ll be the first to say she was phenomenal and I am a huge fan, but she retired about a year ago, faded away into obscurity, and now since her surprise return on Raw, hasn’t stopped talking about Beth and Natalya! Supposedly, there hasn’t been an effort on WWE’s part to extend any kind of offer to Trish to make an appearance at WrestleMania 25. However, things just seem to be up in the air at this point! Trish keeps talking about Beth and Natalya, Beth keeps talking about Natalya, and Natalya keeps talking about Trish. This little triangle could all be a ploy by the WWE to keep us guessing, but if it isn’t, then Trish is starting to look mighty desperate. As I’m pretty sure has been an established opinion by most of us including myself at Diva Dirt, a Trish appearance at WrestleMania would only detract away from the hard work that the other Divas have put forth over the past year. At any rate, all this Beth vs. Natalya, Trish vs. Beth, Natalya vs. Trish, and Beth vs. Trish vs. Natalya madness needs to stop! And Trish, either stay retired or don’t… but pick one!

yeey finally a new blog hassan! i thought you were ‘fired’ or something lol,
but yeah you kinda make a good point, its not the trish stratus show, she cant decide
that she retires and then comes back whenever and where she wants, im still a big fan of her
and always will, but come on trish, i mean everyone allready forget about all the other girls from
the wwf/attitude area, its not needed for you to come back, its ok if she does promo’s or wrestles
on a monday night or on SD what so ever but not all the time and espacially not at WM,

But what people forget is this was from an interview. How many times have we read our favorite diva, hell celebrity, being interviewed and seem them being asked the same questions that the 5,000 interviewers before them have been asked? Its not Trish’s fault that she answers the same question the same way each time.
As for unretiring, Trish actually can if she wants to. If WWE offers her a large sum for a quick run, I think she should take it. I would be upset that she was taking a spot away from another woman, just like the rest of you; BUT I would be upset with WWE and not Trish.

Ahhh… I don’t see how she needs to decide to stay retired or not. She is retired, simply because she may talk about it doesn’t mean she’s not retired. Plus, most of the time she mentions that she wants to wrestle Beth/Natalya have been in interviews because almost every interviewer asks that question. However, they should ask that question. She’s freaking Trish Stratus, she’s The Rock and the Stone Cold of the Women’s Division. Trish, and to a certain extent Lita, can provide the only dream matches of the Division.
Beth-Natalya is not a dream match because Natalya is a nobody in the company. She is an extremely talented woman who should be a somebody, but she’s a nobody. Saying Beth-Natalya is a dream match is like saying Cena-Noble is a dream match; neither of them are dream matches. Cena-Rock or Cena-Austion, on the other hand, are dream matches. Much like Beth-Trish or Beth-Lita are dream matches. However, I’d like to see at least another year go by before either matches occur because Beth needs to establish herself more, because as of right now, a match between her and Trish would not be the best of dream matches. It’s like Cena, once again. A match between Cena and The Rock during Cena’s first reign would not have been a dream match, but a match between Cena and The Rock now would be a dream match.
