"Book it!" - WWE Hall of Famer wants Tiffany Stratton to face 48-year-old veteran at WrestleMania
WWE Hall of Famer Booker T has expressed interest in seeing a match between Tiffany Stratton and wrestling veteran Trish Stratus. He wants the company to book it for WrestleMania.
The Buff Barbie Doll and the Canadian star were involved in a backstage segment at Money in the Bank last Saturday, which was hosted by the latter. During the post-show press conference, the SmackDown star even stated that she wanted to share the ring with the WWE Legend.
Speaking on the latest edition of the Hall of Fame podcast, Booker T revealed that he's very interested in seeing Trish Stratus have a match against Tiffany Stratton in WWE. He admitted that he could see the bout happening in Canada or at WrestleMania.
"Yeah, heck yeah man, I mean why not? I mean Trish Stratus, she's still got it. We know that... I can't wait to see Trish vs. Tiffany Stratton, I think that'll be a hell of a marquee match anywhere. I mean, can you imagine if they did it in Canada? Man, it would be off the chain. So for me, I'm just hoping I'm booked for that show, because I got to see it more than anything. Not just in Canada man, anywhere in the world. WrestleMania man, book it," said Booker. [36:08 - 37:11]
Booker T on Tiffany Stratton winning the Money in the Bank contract
The Buff Barbie Doll defeated five other women in a ladder match at WWE Money in the Bank to win the prestigious contract. She can cash it in for any women's title she wants.
During the podcast, Booker T commented on whether Tiffany Stratton becoming Ms. Money in the Bank was a good idea.
"Yeah, I mean why not? You want somebody like that to really be able to make a mark and really be able to make a staple instantly. You don't want to wait with somebody like Tiffany Stratton, she's a star. I recognized that in NXT very quickly. She hadn't been in the business in what, three years? So she's definitely on the trajectory where her star is still rising," said Booker. [34:12 - 34:42]
It'll be interesting to see whether Stratton will cash in on Bayley or Liv Morgan to win her first title on the main roster.
