3 WWE accolades Trish Stratus can win in the modern era

3 WWE accolades Trish Stratus can win in the modern era

Time of India08-05-2025

Trish Stratus
still has some accolades missing from her illustrious
resume.
Trish Stratus is one of the biggest names in the history of women's wrestling. The former Diva of the Decade has paved the way for future generations and proved herself as a true trailblazer and accomplished WWE superstar.

Not only that, but Stratus has returned to WWE on numerous occasions and has shown that she can still go toe-to-toe with the stars of the current roster.
Moreover, Stratus came back to WWE in 2023 for an extended run that lasted for months. Should she decide to do that re-run again in the future, her goal could be to etch accolades that she did not win in WWE during her active years or previous appearances. Here are the three top accolades that Trish Stratus can win if she returns to WWE for another extended tenure:
3. WWE Women's Tag Team Championships
The WWE Women's Tag Team Championships were introduced years after Trish Stratus retired from the ring as a full-time competitor.
Despite that, she was involved in a tag team title match after WrestleMania 39. Stratus filled in for her best friend, Lita, to team up with Becky Lynch. However, if she returns to WWE for another run, this time it could be a full-fledged run with the tag gold, possibly with Lita or a top star of today's roster. One choice for her could be Tiffany Stratton, with whom she last teamed up and emerged victorious at the 2025 WWE Elimination Chamber PLE against Nia Jax and Candice LeRae.
2. Money in the Bank
Trish Stratus got to compete in her first Money in the Bank ladder match back in 2023, but she was unsuccessful in capturing the briefcase. With some experience now under her belt, she could resurface in WWE and compete in the ladder match, potentially winning the match. This could add a missing accolade to her resume and pave an easy path for her to another WWE Women's Championship reign.
1. Secondary WWE Women's Championship
Another new opportunity was introduced for the WWE women's division in the modern era.

That was secondary Women's titles for the division, i.e, the Intercontinental and United States Championships. Trish Stratus is a seven-time Women's Champion, and she can add an 8th title to her resume. However, this time it could be one of the new titles introduced for the WWE landscape should she make her return to in-ring action again.

CM Punk Appears As 'Dr. Of Thuganomics'; Parodies John Cena With 'Punkanomics' Rap: WATCH

Last Updated: CM Punk retaliated against John Cena on Friday Night SmackDown by mimicking Cena's old-school "Doctor of Thuganomics" gimmick. CM Punk decided to go bar-for-bar with John Cena on Friday Night SmackDown tonight, in classic 'Thuganomics' fashion, as retaliation for the reverse-pipebomb gimmick from last week. It was just a week ago when Cena slammed Punk through a table and delivered a scathing promo that parodied Punk's iconic 2011 'pipe bomb"—the very one delivered after Cena himself had been put through a table following a match with R-Truth. Well, it's always an eye for an eye with CM Punk, who responded in kind by copying Cena's 'Doctor of Thuganomics" gimmick on this week's go-home episode of SmackDown in Saudi Arabia. 👊 PunkLife 👊THIS IS BASIC PUNKANOMICS! 🔥 — WWE (@WWE) June 28, 2025 After Cena made his usual entrance, his old Basic Thuganomics entrance music played, and out came CM Punk. Punk was dressed similar to how Cena would dress as the Dr of Thuganomics about 20 years ago, and grabbed a mic on his way into the ring. Punk then proceeded to cut a promo on Cena in the form of a rap. Punk's rap took shots at Cena moving in slow motion, burying more wrestlers than The Undertaker, fixing his bald spot, and somehow being more problematic than Hulk Hogan. He said I'm a problem, he called me a player hater, let's be honest, John Cena's buried more talent than the Undertaker. That's why he's the champ and went and lost all his respects, but John I get it, I'd retire too if this place rehired my ex. If you never said your prayers, ate your vitamins or fixed your bald spot, you wouldn't be a pro wrestler, you'd be a Boston Mall Cop. But hey, he gets good movie roles that much is a fact, and then you see Batista act and you realise John ain't that. Same shirt, same hat, man, your persona stayed tragic. You're like a fish bellied white Hulk Hogan but somehow more problematic. . @CMPunk just left @JohnCena speechless… 👀 — WWE (@WWE) June 28, 2025 For someone who started off the night with boos after issuing an apology during the WWE Night of Champions Kickoff show for his tweet years ago about Saudi Arabia, Punk surely ended the night well, with the crowds singing ' Cult of Personality' in unison as he left.

CM Punk's 'Punkanomics' echoes these 3 savage John Cena parodies

Image via WWE CM Punk's infamous Pipebomb moment from 2011 was turned into a parody by John Cena on WWE SmackDown last week. The Best in the World retaliated in a similar fashion by donning Cena's popular 'Doctor of Thuganomics' and launching major verbal rap shots at The Cenation Leader. This came one night before they clashed for the final time with the Undisputed WWE Championship on the line at Night of Champions. Punk recreating an important part of Cena's WWE career as a mockery was a sight to witness. However, he was not the first one to do so. Over the years, top names in the business, who had heated feuds with the 17-time WWE Champion, mocked him in a similar way that The Second City Saint did on SmackDown. Here is a look back at those three times WWE superstars delivered savage John Cena parodies: 3. Big Show John Cena's first major rivalry in WWE during the start of his rise as 'The Doctor of Thuganomics' was against then-WWE United States Champion, The Big Show. In the buildup to their match for the star-spangled prize at WrestleMania XX, the duo met on SmackDown in a rap battle where Show took aspects from Cena's rapper gimmick and went toe-to-toe with him. Cena won the battle and even defeated him at WrestleMania to win his first title in WWE. 2. Kurt Angle The first WWE superstar whom John Cena faced in the company was Kurt Angle in 2002. Sometime later, when Cena found his Doctor of Thuganomics persona, he found himself crossing paths with The Olympic Hero again. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo At one time during an in-ring confrontation, Angle decided to shut down the young rising star in his language by delivering a charismatic rap that left Cena speechless. It showed Angle's hilarious side who rapped to perfection and reminded Cena that he was the top player of the big leagues. 1. The Rock WWE Raw 28/2/2011 The Rock Dwayne Johnson Rapping *HD* John Cena began a rivalry with The Rock following his return to WWE in 2011. The Champ rapped to The Great One after he berated Cena in his return promo. In response, The Rock appeared via satellite wearing Cena's cap, armbands, and rapping in a similar fashion. He did a few lines, but immediately took off all of Cena's artifacts to deliver a scratching rant in his own style, which became a memorable segment in WWE.
