On WWE Divas today compared to her era:
“We don’t get to know them, so when they get to the ring unfortunately, nobody cares. There is nothing for us to get behind or motivated or excited about character-wise and storyline-wise. I think there needs to be a little bit more focus on characters and with more TV time. I need to know these characters.”
On fans getting to know the new Divas in WWE:
“I need to know why this person is doing that move and why she is doing this move,” Stratus said. “When Jazz and Trish fought in the ring, I knew Jazz was going to do this stuff and Trish was going to do that stuff. So when they got in the ring it came down to how is this all going to work out. It’s like how they do it with the guys. So that’s what’s missing from the girls. They kind of all do the same moves. I think I want everyone to get their loyal move sets and repertoires and keep them separate. Don’t do each other’s moves. It’s wrestling 101. A little bit of that is missing.”
