Former WWE diva Torrie Wilson says she misses the wrestling business because of the close friends she had on the road and it's difficult for her to watch wrestling again after she didn't get to leave on her own terms.

"I hadn't watched for the longest time, and I just recently started watching here and there a little bit a few months ago," Torrie told Kevin Eck of the Baltimore Sun before WrestleMania 25. "It was hard for me to watch for a long time. I felt like I was missing out on everything."

Torrie made a brief cameo during the 25-divas battle royale at WrestleMania 25 to unofficially say good-bye to WWE. However, the condition of her back after surgery last year will prevent her from wrestling another match.

"There's no way I would ever get in the ring again and take bumps. Do I want to go back to wrestling? No. But would I like to have another match? Yeah, of course I'd like to have another match," Torrie said. "When I left I just kind of fizzled away. I didn't have a goodbye match. I don't even remember what my last match was. It would be a great experience. I do miss being out in front of that crowd a lot."

Torrie is remaining active with photo shoots and running her clothing line store outside of Houston, but says she still has to deal with pain, even after leaving wrestling.

"I don't think the pain is ever going to go away completely," Torrie said. "There was no way I was going to risk hurting myself again (by continuing to wrestle) knowing how it felt to be so crippled."

While in WWE, Torrie says there was plenty of locker-room jealousy amongst the divas, especially when she joined the company with Stacy Keibler when WCW was bought out in 2001. Torrie says she got revenge on some of the divas a few years later.

"There were a couple girls who really believed their own hype," Torrie recalled. "I used to travel with my dog Chloe, and she went to the bathroom one time in the locker room, and I was feeling extra frisky and mean, and there were two girls that I just did not like very much that were very mean to me, and let's just say some of their stuff had dog poop on it."

Torrie was asked whether she would consider a non-wrestling program in TNA, but Torrie says she would only make future appearances for WWE, such as the cameo at WrestleMania.

"Nothing against TNA, but WWE is where you would want to be in that industry," Torrie said.
