If Trish didn't retire in 2006, would she have still been pushed as the top star or putting people over?

I would have loved to have seen her reaction if Vince asked her to lose to Candice Michelle clean.

Would've been lumped in with all the women during the Diva era until mouthbreathers start saying she was overrated and needs to step aside for younger women....almost like how she was treated during that Snooki angle.

Probably would’ve stayed on top til the likes of Beth Phoenix and Kharma came along

Well she was only 31 so I’m sure she still would’ve been as much of a top star as a woman could be back then. But unfortunately the women were still being used as eye candy so

I think you mean leave because wrestlin' retirements are a joke.

She would have most likely been pretty dominant still but at times bein' forced to lose to women with no skill. She made a good choice leavin' when she did knowin' how things were.

She would've made a few more million dollars we would've only found out about a few months ago. :ortonout

Honestly, nothing more would have happened with her around. There had to be a generation of kids that watched what Lita and Trish did and wanted to be that in order for what happened to women's wrestling happened. At least that's my opinion. Just like there had to be a generation of kids that wanted to be HBK and Bret Hart and Eddie and Rey for us to get what happened with the norm no longer as pro wrestling is the land of the giants.
