Victoria, a renowned WWE women’s wrestler from 2002 to 2009, had an illustrious career during her time in the company. She competed against several top stars, including Trish Stratus and Lita. Recently, it was revealed that Trish Stratus reached out to Victoria before the WWE Payback steel cage match between Stratus and Becky Lynch. The match was a highlight of WWE television for several months, and it ended with a thrilling steel cage match.
As mentioned in the article, Stratus paid tribute to her friend Victoria by hitting a Widow’s Peak on Lynch during the match. On the other hand, Lynch used a Twist of Fate on Stratus as a tribute to Lita, which was a nod to their steel cage match on the November 24, 2003 episode of RAW. This was not a subtle gesture, as both women had competed against Victoria and Lita in the past.
Speaking on her GAW TV show, Victoria recalled that Stratus called her a couple of weeks before the match to ask if she could do the Widow’s Peak, which is a move that not many wrestlers do today. Victoria was thrilled with the request and gave her approval. Interestingly, Lynch also reached out to Victoria after the match, sending her a direct message to thank her for being part of their match.

The story highlights the respect and admiration that Trish Stratus and Becky Lynch have for Victoria, as well as their desire to pay homage to her wrestling legacy. Fans of WWE are eagerly waiting to see if Victoria will ever return to the ring, but for now, this exchange between Stratus, Lynch, and Victoria serves as a testament to the lasting impact of the legendary wrestler.
