Below are some top news stories of the day, involving MVP and Trish Stratus.
• MVP shared a powerful Throwback Thursday post on Instagram, reflecting on his troubled past.
The former WWE United States Champion posted a rare photo of himself at age 16, taken shortly before he turned himself in for a high-profile robbery in 1990. He revealed he spent nearly a decade in prison.
He used the post to inspire others. Here’s what he wrote:
“MVP at 16 in 1990. Very shortly after this photo was taken, I turned myself in for a major robbery that made national headline news. I wouldn’t see freedom again until I was 26. 9 1/2 years later! #190197 went on to turn his life around and became MVP!!!!!
You are NOT defined by your past!”
Earlier this year, he detailed the robbery, which involved a casino on a cruise ship, and his decision to surrender after being betrayed by accomplices.
MVP credits the experience and a firm judge for steering him toward a better path, ultimately transforming his life and career.

• During an interview with TV Insider, Trish Stratus was asked which wrestler she enjoys watching today.
Trish picked current WWE Women’s Champion Nia Jax:
“Nia Jax. I’m so happy she came back. She has a great presence. She has been owning it. I really enjoy watching her. I have this weird thing where I don’t think I could fully retire until I’m rag-dolled by her. Is that weird? Imagine that? Then I can retire (laughs).”
Trish Stratus last competed in a WWE ring at Payback 2023, where she lost to Becky Lynch in a Steel Cage Match.
