Stratus talked about Linda's reaction to the storyline, saying Vince's wife was "super cool about it." The former WWE President even gave the former model suggestions to enhance the storyline.
"We were very aware of what we were doing to provide fuel for our storyline and Linda was super cool about it too. She was in on it. You know, we were all in on it. There was a scene where I lean over and I kiss Linda and that came from Linda. She was like, 'Oh, it would irk so many people if you would lean over and kiss me in the head,'" Stratus added.
