With Elimination Chamber 2025 WWE premium live event emanating from her hometown of Toronto, Trish Stratus will be returning to action on the show as announced on this week’s Smackdown. She was a surprise attendee of the show to get involved in a segment to set up the tag match, teaming with the reigning WWE women’s champion.
On the February 14 episode of Smackdown, Tiffany Stratton (c) defeated Nia Jax via DQ to retain the WWE Women’s Championship, after Candice LeRae interfered and attacked Stratton. The attack caused Stratton’s second title defense before Elimination Chamber 2025 to end without offering a proper outcome. The two-heel duo then unleashed a further attack on Stratton.

LeRae handed a chair to Jax for a move on it from the top rope, only to see Stratus get involved to start the build for a tag team match at Elimination Chamber 2025. With Jax and LeRae dominating the scene, Stratus was also taken out, herself. Charlotte Flair then emerged to the scene and confirmed that she would be challenging Stratton for the WWE women’s title at WrestleMania 41 via her 2025 women’s Royal Rumble match win.
Stratus and Stratton then appeared in a backstage segment and they ended up agreeing to team up together in Toronto against Jax and Lerae at Elimination Chamber 2025. Earlier on Smackdown, Stratus was interviewed in the crowd and said she would be at the March PLE in her hometown.
