This will be Stratus’s first singles match on PPV since her retirement from full-time action at the Unforgiven 2006 PPV against fellow Hall of Famer Lita.
Stratus has competed since her retirement on episodes of RAW and at WrestleMania 27, including the first Women’s Royal Rumble Match this past January.
