Trish Stratus is set to wrestle on house shows for the first time in nearly 17 years at this weekend's WWE live events. 

Stratus announced on Thursday that she has been added to the lineup for the Saturday, August 19 house show in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada and the Sunday, August 20 house show in Laval, Quebec, Canada. 

Stratus did an in-character post on social media regarding the events, stating that she was added to the shows after "souring" ticket sales. 

A follow-up article on her website stated that Stratus is set to wrestle at the shows, not just make appearances. 

Stratus also announced an appearance for Monday's Raw in Quebec City, Quebec, Canada. 

Prior to this coming weekend, Stratus last wrestled on a WWE house show in 2006, challenging Lita for the WWE Women's Championship at an event in Erie, Pennsylvania on August 27 of that year.

Becky Lynch and Stratus continued their months-long feud on Monday's Raw episode, wrestling to a double countout in a match where Stratus ally Zoey Stark was banned from ringside. Stark interfered as the match spilled to the arena concourse after the double countout. 

A Stratus vs. Lynch steel cage match was later announced during Monday's Raw show, but no date was advertised for the bout.
