A contract signing segment between Trish Stratus and Becky Lynch for their match at Night of Champions 2023 was already confirmed heading into May 22 WWE Raw episode. Before proceeding to the segment, Trish asked WWE Official Adam Pearce to have a “no touch” policy to feature in the signing session.
Once it was ensured, Trish Stratus appeared face-to-face in the ring with Becky on WWE Raw in what was touted to be her first contract-signing segment. Trish reminded this while also saying that Becky has had many such segments in her career. Trish stated that is because a trailblazer like her had laid out the patch of the work, not Becky. Trish said this is going to be Becky’s last contract signing.

Becky Lynch verbally blasted Trish Stratus on Raw
Becky replied saying that Trish Stratus was scared, but she won’t do anything to her on WWE Raw as she wants Trish at her 100% at Night of Champions. Becky also verbally destroyed her saying that she has had a career that Trish could have only dreamed of.
Becky then said if Trish thinks “barking like a dog was embarrassing,” wait until what she does to her this Saturday at Night of Champions. Trish was angered by these words and pulled over the table at Becky before leaving the ring.

Trish Stratus barked like a dog on WWE Raw, two decades ago
For those who don’t remember, Becky Lynch was referring to an episode of WWE Raw from 2001 when Vince McMahon forced Trish Stratus to bend down on her knees and bark like a dog. Of course, that segment could be unwatchable to the fans who view PG content on WWE TV, these days. But WWE Hall of Famers like Trish or Lita had to go through several such segments in their WWE career.
Becky vs. Trish official for Night of Champions 2023
Now that the match contract has been signed on WWE Raw, the matchup between Trish and Becky will officially be happening at Night of Champions premium live event. The storyline between the two revolves around Trish’s problem of not becoming the second fiddle to Becky Lynch.
Trish also accused her current rival of disrespecting her legacy. The animosity between the two could be seemingly personal as the two took personal jabs at each other. A few weeks ago on WWE Raw, Trish even dragged Lynch’s baby daughter Roux to go to the maximum heel level. Afterward, Becky returned to seek vengeance and continue the feud.
