She spoke about receiving a standing ovation backstage and shared, "Mickie James, you know, and Trish Stratus' match at WrestleMania 22 was everything, it really had every component you could ever ask for as a superstar. The best part for me personally, I don't know about you [Mickie], but when we came out, you know, through the curtain and having all our colleagues there giving us a standing O and giving us that applause was just so gratifying."
Trisha Stratus broke all records with a 448 day reign as WWE Women’s Champion, making it the longest reign of the 21st century. She also won the title seven times. Stratus is married to Ron Fisico and shares a child with him, Maximus Stratus Fisico.

Her fellow WWE Hall of Famer, Sunny opened up about how Stratus had been her inspiration and shared, "I do have to say, I mean the only person that I actually could sit and watch a match would be Trish Stratus. I give her all the props in the world. She's like the one person who came after me that I actually have 100% respect for because she came from nowhere and worked so hard and learned so much. She's the kind of person that does respect the business, you know? She was in it because she loved it not because it was a quick dollar."
