WWE Hall of Famer Axed From Raw Appearance

WWE Raw Set

On WWE Raw in Ottawa, Becky Lynch and Lita laid down a title challenge to Damage CTRL but a new report says things were meant to go very differently.

On the 20th of February edition of Raw, Bayley was attempting to host her Ding Dong Hello segment when the party was crashed by Lita and Becky Lynch. The pair then challenged SKY and Kai for their WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship on the 27th of February edition of Raw, which Bayley accepted on her Damage CTRL teammate’s behalf.

A new report from Fightful Select has suggested that the segment was meant to go down very differently. According to the report, WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus was meant to return to television in her home country as part of the Ding Dong Hello segment.

Details on why Trish Stratus was pulled from the segment are scarce but Stratus was at the show in Ottawa but apparently left before the segment took place. The only note from WWE is that a “creative change” happened causing Stratus’ appearance to be nixed.

Also on Raw, Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens came face to face after the thrilling events of the Elimination Chamber while Brock Lesnar is facing a mammoth challenge for WrestleMania 39.
