Trish Stratus says her schedule during WrestleMania week will determine whether she can induct Stephanie McMahon into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2026.
Speaking with KLAS 8 News Now, Trish Stratus addressed the possibility of introducing Stephanie McMahon at the ceremony. McMahon is set to headline this year’s Hall of Fame class, which also includes AJ Styles and Demolition.
Stratus noted that her availability remains uncertain due to commitments tied to WrestleMania weekend in Las Vegas.
“I’ll have to see if I’m not at Flanker. I’ll have to see,”
Stratus said when asked about potentially handling the induction.
Trish Stratus Will Be In Las Vegas For WrestleMania 42 Week
The WWE Hall of Fame ceremony is scheduled for April 17 at Dolby Live in Las Vegas. However, Stratus will also be hosting her “First Crush” fan event throughout the weekend at Flanker Kitchen & Sports Bar.
The event is being promoted as an interactive fan experience featuring a pop-up merchandise shop, themed food and drinks, meet-and-greets, podcast recordings, and live discussions. Because these activities may run alongside official WWE programming, Stratus said her attendance at the ceremony has not yet been confirmed.
While WWE has not officially announced who will induct McMahon, many fans have speculated that a member of the McMahon family or a longtime rival such as Stratus would be a fitting choice.
The 2026 Hall of Fame ceremony will take place during WrestleMania 42 weekend in Las Vegas, where the two-night event is expected to feature multiple championship matches and appearances from some of WWE’s top stars.
