In a recent interview with Live Audio Wrestling, Trish Stratus and Amy “Lita” Dumas stopped by to make an announcement and to take calls and e-mails from the fans. Trish also shared a few words on how Tristian came about. Here’s what she said:
When we had the Jericho and Christian thing, that started with Jericho and I talking about how cool it would be if we did something together, some kind of match, you know, and then we talked to Amy and Christian and we just put this little idea together. It was supposed to be a one-off and Vince thought the chemistry was great with everyone and it just turned to a little bit more than that and obviously the Jericho/Trish story went on after that and it was kinda cool…
…the only time that I was really bummed that I didn’t get to do the thing that I wanted to do, was Jericho and I wanted to be this babyface couple. That whole storyline was supposed to lead up to Jericho and I being this babyface couple and no-one had really seen just this really silly, campy couple out there and it just didn’t happen of course, but then obviously, Vince saw the bigger picture and said ‘No, I think we should do this’, which of course we were like ‘No, we want to do this’, but then it was like okay actually that’s a really good idea.
