WWE Hall of Famer Torrie Wilson has addressed the possibility of an in-ring return, stating that she believes she still has another match in her. While she has not competed in a one-on-one match in over 17 years, the former star says she would be open to it for the right opportunity.
Speaking with SHAK Wrestling, the popular star of the "Diva Era" confirmed that the door on her wrestling career is "never completely closed."
Torrie Wilson: "The Door Is Never Completely Closed"
Wilson explained that for any former wrestler, the desire to get back in the ring never truly goes away. She confirmed that she feels she could still compete at a high level, but the circumstances would have to be perfect.
"I feel like if you've ever been in wrestling, the door is never completely closed," Wilson said. "People ask me a lot, do you have another match in you? I'm like, yes, of course."
She added, "If something awesome came along, how would I not have that in me? It would take a lot more preparing on my end because I wouldn't want to go back and do something that didn't make people go, 'Oh wow, she is an athlete.'"

A Star of the WWE "Diva Era"
Torrie Wilson was one of the most popular female superstars of WWE's "Ruthless Aggression Era." After coming to WWE from WCW as part of the Invasion storyline in 2001, she quickly became a fan favorite. While known for her stunning looks and multiple Playboy magazine covers, she was also a capable in-ring performer who was part of many memorable storylines.

Her most famous feud was a bizarre and deeply personal angle with Dawn Marie, which controversially involved Wilson's real-life father, Al Wilson. After retiring from full-time competition in 2008 due to a back injury, she was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2019.
Since stepping away from the ring, Wilson has become a successful web-based fitness instructor and coach. Her incredible physical condition at the age of 50 is a major reason why a potential in-ring return is a plausible scenario.
She has made two previous one-off returns for special occasions. She was a surprise entrant in the battle royal at the first Evolution pay-per-view in 2018, and she also competed in the 2021 Women's Royal Rumble match. With other legends from her era, like Trish Stratus, making successful comebacks, Wilson's comments are sure to have fans fantasy booking potential dream matches for the Hall of Famer.
