Trish Stratus was in negotiations to be in the Diva's Battle Royal at Wrestlemania, but she soured on the idea when she found out Santino was scheduled to win. It wasn't necessarily that she didn't want to lose the match, but felt the format and the fact that it was based around comedy wouldn't do her character any good.

Trish is at a special point in her life, and any wrestling appearances need to be worth while.
