It's a little over 24 hours after delivering some Stratusfaction to Raw and honestly, the buzz is just barely starting to wear off ... actually I don't think it will be wearing off any time soon to be honest! I mean, in a word - someone I know said it best - "wow!"
And, I apologize, I would have been on sooner but it has been crazy for me the last few days ... Christmas kinda snuck up on me so I had to finish off some shopping today as I was busy all weekend hosting some guests from out of town, we dealt with some lost luggage due to the backlog from the storm on Friday, did some spa-ing, and downward dog-ing, and then, you know, got ready to deliver some Stratusfaction to the ACC! How crazy was that?! I don't think you guys realize just how amazing that was for me - can you see goosebumps on HD? Seriously, I've been hearing from many that it was an early Christmas present ... well, it was for me too.
Ever since I retired I am constantly being asked "would I ever consider returning" and I have always said: for the right moment, for the right scenario, for the right person calling me out ... well, check, check, and check!
Let's see, the Champ needed a partner, in the T dot, he's facing Glamerella - an unlikely duo that quite frankly I am a fan of - the bat signal couldn't be any brighter - cue the giggle!
It was great going back to the ACC, both backstage and on! It is an interesting thing when as a (former) WWE Superstar you return to the backstage scene. It does feel a little like it's a microcosm that you insert yourself back into and it's kinda all the same - like you never left. Sure there are a few new faces, new waists upon which the titles sit, but for the most part it's just like coming home after being away at college - it's still home. Especially with all the love ... the great, big hug from J.R. - 'Trish sighting confirmed', the smell of self tanner and hairspray - except the ladies locker room is now a little fuller (especially with the Supershow), handshakes from some new folks, whom I knew (from watching) but had never met ... it really was home sweet home - and yes, the 17, 000 in attendance helped with that feeling! Was that a déjà vu kinda feeling or what?
Did anyone notice the boots? Had to dust those babies off - last time I wore those was my last Raw match at MSG against Mickie James (who I see is still on fire!). Those boots are a bit of an homage to the greatest Canadian wrestling family - everyone digs them - well, usually - there was a certain someone backstage who wasn't too keen on me wearing them ...
Being at Raw kicking ass and taking names with John Cena, introducing the FOB Santino to the Stratusphere, and giving the Glamazon a sampling of what a seven time Champion tastes like was in fact an early Christmas present ... seconds anyone?
Speaking of presents - I got some I gotta go wrap...
What does FOB mean? Fresh Off the Boat - what else...
Wishing everyone in the WWE universe a Merry Trishmas!
