"It’s an honor for me to do this with my bestie. Like for us to come back this many years later and you know 23 years we’ve been here now. And to be able to do it together, to have a WrestleMania moment together is so much fun."

The Quintessential Diva added that the two are enjoying traveling together and making the most out of the opportunity.

"We’re traveling together, we’re enjoying it, we’re taking the moment, we’re passing the torch together whatever it is, right, we’re doing it together and it’s really fun to do that with Amy," Stratus said. [4:39 - 5:02]
