Trish Stratus worked the Showcase of the Immortals with a minor injury.
Trish would team with Becky Lynch and Lita to take on Damage CTRL, a match that the face team would end up winning. Shortly thereafter, Trish would turn on Becky Lynch, attacking her two weeks ago on Monday Night RAW.
Stratus revealed on the April 19 episode of Busted Open Radio that she competed in WrestleMania 39 with a partially torn hamstring.
“I had a few obstacles. I had a partially torn hamstring, by the way. Nobody knew about that. It was just like, WrestleMania, let’s just go.”
“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.”

It is expected that Trish will face Becky Lynch in a singles match in the near future, possibly at WWE Backlash in Puerto Rico next month.
