Following the show, WWE held an exclusive interview with Lynch, Lita, and Stratus discussing Lynch and Lita’s championship victory and Stratus’ return.

Lita – “I’ve seen what Bayley has been doing and how the numbers game has caught up to Becky for months on end at this point, so [we] put a plan together, and there was one person on the list.”

Becky Lynch – “Thankfully, Lita has a friend because I don’t think I have many friends [laughs].”

Trish Stratus – “Now we’re friends right? I have to prove myself to you or something.”

…

Lynch – “For me, this is really surreal because these two women because these two women changed the game for all of us to be able to do what we do, for me to be main-event WrestleMania, it all started with these two being the first two to main-event on Raw. Tonight, the fact that we had both of them here, in the main event of Raw, and so that we were able to walk out as the tag team champions, it means a lot to me. I think 15-year-old me wouldn’t believe this, and I barely can right now.”

Lita – “It’s feeling really surreal to me. I don’t know if you had one of the Lita arm bands at 15-year-old you, but this was one of the original prototypes that they made the Lita armbands from. So I wore it. It’s a little worse for wear at this point, but it felt appropriate to bring the full-circle moment to this main event on Raw. We called our shot, and this never works. I never call my shot and it works. I call my shot, and they’re like, ‘No.’”

As a result of her Women’s Tag Team Championship victory, Lynch became the sixth woman in WWE history to achieve a Triple Crown based on WWE’s current criteria of a RAW, a SmackDown, and a Women’s Tag Team Championship.
