Trish Stratus reveals why 29-year-old superstar was the "obvious choice" to team up with on WWE RAW

WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus has revealed why she has paired up with a recently drafted superstar on RAW.

Trish has been involved in a bitter rivalry with Becky Lynch for months. The two squared off at WWE Night of Champions in Saudi Arabia in a singles match, but the match ended in controversy. Zoey Stark interfered and hit The Man with a knee to the face. Trish then capitalized and escaped the premium live event with a pinfall victory.

Zoey Stark, Becky Lynch, and Trish Stratus have all qualified for the Women's Money in the Bank ladder match this Saturday night. Speaking on WWE's The Bump, Stratus claimed that Zoey was the obvious choice as a superstar to mentor on RAW:

"Basically, you saw us come together on RAW. She (Zoey Stark) was drafted to RAW, and I had my eye on her. But who wouldn't, right? If you look at potential and you look at the future generation. I'm here to learn, I'm here to give, and she was the obvious choice," said Trish Stratus. [From 00:12 - 00:29]

Trish added that Zoey's power and confidence stood out to her:

"When she comes on screen, what do people see? They see power; they see the way she dominates, she's confident, she's got a great set of biceps, I'll tell 'ya that. What else can you ask for in a superstar?" she added. [From 00:45 - 01:02]
