Patricia Anne Stratigias ( /strætɨˈdʒiːəs/;
born December 18, 1975), better known by her ring name Trish Stratus, is a
Canadian professional wrestler, actress and television personality currently
signed with WWE.[8] She is also a former fitness model.
After beginning her career as a
fitness model, Stratus began working for the World Wrestling Federation (WWF),
which was later renamed World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE). Early in her
career, she was involved in sexually themed storylines, such as managing the
team T & A and an affair with Vince McMahon. As Stratus spent more time in the
ring, her wrestling skills and popularity strengthened. Because of this, she was
a one-time WWE Hardcore Champion, three-time "WWE Babe of the Year" and was
proclaimed "Diva of the Decade".[9][10] After nearly seven years in the
business, Stratus retired from professional wrestling at WWE Unforgiven on
September 17, 2006, after winning her seventh WWE Women's Championship, the most
in WWE history. Since retiring, Stratus has occasionally come out of retirement
to compete in one-off matches.
Aside from professional wrestling,
Stratus appeared on a number of magazine covers and has been involved in charity
work. She has also hosted several award and television shows, Stratigias grew up
in Richmond Hill, Ontario, Canada where she attended Bayview Secondary
School.[11][12] She enrolled at York University, where she studied biology and
kinesiology and played soccer and field hockey.[2][6][9] Due to a faculty strike
in 1997, she was forced to change her plans.[2][6][9][11][12] She was working as
a receptionist at a local gym when she was approached by the publisher of
MuscleMag International to do a test shoot for the magazine.[12][13] She later
appeared on the cover of the May 1998 issue and was signed to a two year
contract.[13] For the next six months, she worked on her body and appeared on
numerous magazine covers.[12] During this time, she joined Big Daddy Donnie &
Jeff Marek as the third host of Live Audio Wrestling on Toronto Sports Radio,
The FAN 590.[2][14][15]
Stratigias had been a fan of
wrestling since childhood and her modeling work caught the attention of the
World Wrestling Federation (WWF).[2][11][14][15][16] In November 1999, she was
signed to a multi-year contract with the company, who sent her to Sully's Gym
where she was trained by Ron Hutchinson.[2][11][12][15]

 Stratigias
made her debut as a heel on the March 19, 2000 episode of Sunday Night Heat,
under the ring name Trish Stratus.[2] She appeared on stage to scout WWF
Superstars, in particular Test and Prince Albert. The next night on Raw Stratus
began her first role in the company, managing Test and Albert in the tag team T
& A.[2][17] It was during her stint managing T & A that Stratus took her first
major bump in the ring, being driven through a table by the Dudley Boyz at
Backlash after she had been taunting Bubba Ray Dudley for several weeks.[18] She
also began managing then-heel, Val Venis to win the Intercontinental
Championship but their partnership ended at SummerSlam after Venis lost the
title.[11]
Stratus made her in-ring debut on
the June 22 taping of SmackDown!, winning a tag team match with T & A against
the Hardy Boyz and Lita. A storyline feud between Stratus and Lita developed
after the match with Stratus attacking Lita on episodes of Raw and SmackDown!,
leading to an Indian Strap match on the July 24 edition of Raw which Stratus won
with help from Stephanie McMahon.[1] She finished the year competing
unsuccessfully for the WWF Women's Championship numerous times, and leaving Test
and Albert when the team disbanded.[19]
In early 2001, Stratus became
involved in an angle with WWF Chairman Vince McMahon, during a time when Vince's
wife Linda was kayfabe institutionalized following a demand Vince had made for a
divorce during an episode of SmackDown! on December 7, 2000.[11][20] Vince and
Stratus' relationship increasingly angered the boss' daughter, then-heel,
Stephanie McMahon.[2][4] At No Way Out on February 25, Stratus and Stephanie
squared off, with Stephanie scoring the victory after a run-in by William
Regal.[21] In the midst of a tag team match that pitted Vince and Stratus
against Regal and Stephanie the next night on Raw, Stratus was the victim of a
set-up by Vince, Stephanie and Regal. Regal executed his finisher, the Regal
Cutter, on Stratus and Stephanie then dumped sewage over Stratus' body. Vince
stood over Stratus, and he told her she was a toy with which he had grown tired
of playing and that it was over.[22] The angle continued the next week on Raw
with Vince forcing Stratus to strip down to her black underwear in the ring and
bark like a dog.[23] The storyline came to an end at WrestleMania X-Seven when
Stratus slapped Vince during his match against his son Shane,[2] becoming a fan
favorite in the process.[11][24][25]
Women's
Champion (2001–2003)
Following her first face turn,
Stratus began wrestling part-time. She won a Bra and Panties tag team match with
Lita against then-heels, Stacy Keibler and Torrie Wilson at InVasion.[4] After
suffering an ankle injury in the summer, however, she was sidelined for the
following three months. This interrupted not only her recent venture into
wrestling, but also an on-screen romance with Jeff Hardy and budding storyline
with Team Xtreme.[26] As she rehabilitated, she kept herself visible by
co-hosting Excess on TNN.[4] After returning in autumn, Stratus appeared at
Survivor Series where she won the WWF Women's Championship for the first time in
a six-pack challenge.[2][27][28] Stratus was next involved in a feud with Jazz
over the Women's Championship, where she was booked to retain the title at the
Royal Rumble but being booked to lose the belt to Jazz two weeks later on the
February 4, 2002 edition of Raw.[29][30][31] Stratus then went after the title
for several months, even competing in a Triple Threat match at WrestleMania X8
against Lita and Jazz in her hometown of Toronto, Canada but failed to win the
match.[6][32] While chasing after the Women's title, Stratus won the WWE
Hardcore Championship on May 6, pinning Crash Holly after Bubba Ray Dudley hit
him over the head with a trash can.[11][27] She, however, lost the title to
then-heel, Steven Richards soon afterward due to the stipulation that the belt
was defended 24/7 as long as there was a referee present.[11][27] One week
later, she regained the Women's Title in a tag team match with Bubba Ray
Dudley.[33] During this time, Stratus began wrestling solely on the Raw brand
after being drafted in the WWF Brand Extension.[34]
Stratus' second reign as champion
came to an end on June 23 when she was defeated at King of the Ring by the heel
gimmick of Molly Holly.[35] The two Divas continued their storyline feud for the
next three months. After a failed attempt to win the title in July, Stratus won
back the championship at Unforgiven.[36][37] While feuding with Holly, Stratus
was also involved in an angle with new Diva the heel gimmick of Victoria who
held a storyline grudge against Stratus, claiming she was betrayed by Stratus
when they worked as fitness models.[11] The two competed in several title
matches, with Stratus retaining until Survivor Series where Victoria won the
belt in a Hardcore match.[38][39] On March 17, 2003, Victoria and Steven
Richards defeated Jazz and Stratus in tag team competition when Jazz walked out
on Stratus. After the match, Jeff Hardy saved Stratus from an attack by Victoria
and Richards and then kissed her.[40] Stratus would become Hardy's on-screen
girlfriend once more. The two would talk and kiss backstage, compete as an
intergender tag team, and come to each other's aid when in danger during
single's competition. At no point was their previous relationship
acknowledged.[41] The storyline was suddenly dropped when WWE released Hardy in
April. This marked the second time in two years that a romance between Stratus
and Hardy was abruptly scrapped due to a setback in one of their personal lives.
In neither instance did the angle fully play out or reach a conclusion.[11]
At WrestleMania XIX Stratus
defeated Victoria and then-heel, Jazz to capture her fourth Women's
Championship, equaling the record previously set by The Fabulous Moolah, only to
lose the title to Jazz at the following pay-per-view, Backlash.[42] In the
following months, Stratus was placed into an alliance with Gail Kim. It was
short-lived, though, as Kim turned on Stratus and teamed with Molly Holly,
putting the women in a storyline feud.[11] The duo defeated Stratus and several
tag team partners until Stratus began to partner with a returning
Lita.[43][44][45] The team defeated Kim and Holly in several matches, including
a match at Unforgiven.[46]
Teaming
and feuding with Lita (2003–2005)
Stratus began a romance with Chris
Jericho during the November 10 edition of Raw when she agreed to go on a date
with him.[47][48] Subsequently, they participated in an intergender tag team
match as partners on December 1. After the match, Stratus overheard Jericho
talking to then-heel, Christian, who was involved in an on-screen romance with
the face gimmick of Lita at the time, about who could sleep with their
respective woman first.[49] One week later, Stratus and Lita confronted the men
about their actions, leading to a feud between the two men and women which
resulted in a "Battle of the Sexes" match at Armageddon, which the women
lost.[50] A rematch the next night ended in a no contest.[51] Her relationship
with Jericho continued into the next year with a new angle of Jericho developing
feelings for Stratus. Christian would also briefly turn face once again, but
would quickly turn heel once more by doing a one night betrayal on Stratus and
starting a feud with Jericho. During a match at WrestleMania XX, however,
Stratus became a heel for the first time since her debut by betraying Jericho
and siding with Christian, Stratus claimed her reasons for siding with Christian
were that he was a real man and Jericho was a love sick puppy.[4][14] The duo
feuded with Jericho for several months and competed in a Handicap match at
Backlash.[52] The team of Stratus and Christian were joined by "problem solver"
Tyson Tomko the next night on Raw.[53]
Stratus was booked to win the
Women's Championship for a fifth time at Bad Blood on June 13.[54] She defended
the title until she suffered a legitimate broken hand in July that caused her to
be out of action for approximately a month.[55][56] Upon her return, she
continued to defend the title against numerous challengers before losing the
championship to Lita on December 6 when both women wrestled in the main event of
Raw for the championship.[4] Stratus recaptured the gold a month later at New
Year's Revolution after Lita suffered a legitimate injury during the match.[57]
A new angle was then developed between Stratus and 2004 Raw Diva Search winner
Christy Hemme over jealousy of Hemme's Playboy magazine exposure, with Stratus
attacking Hemme and spray painting the word "slut" across her back.[58] Stratus
was challenged by Hemme, who later revealed she was being trained by Lita, for a
title match at WrestleMania 21 and was successful in retaining the title.[58]
Feuding
with Mickie James; retirement (2005–2006)

In May 2005 Stratus was sidelined
with the Women's Championship after suffering a herniated disc, with the
storyline explanation that Viscera had injured her with a big splash move at
Backlash after she berated him for losing to Lita's then-husband Kane.[4][26]
She returned to Raw on September 12, 2005 once again portraying her face persona
by siding with Ashley Massaro against Vince's Devils.[59] The feud also involved
the debuting Diva Mickie James who introduced herself as Stratus' biggest
fan.[4] On the Eddie Guerrero Tribute Show, Stratus took part in an
interpromotional Diva battle royal that was won by SmackDown! Diva Melina.[60]
The next week, MNM kidnapped Stratus for Melina, who challenged a tied up and
gagged Stratus to a match for the Women's Championship.[61] The two fought at
Survivor Series, with Stratus defeating Melina.[62] Stratus and James continued
teaming together in late 2005 while James' character became increasingly
obsessed with Stratus.[63] On the December 26 episode of Raw, the storyline
between Stratus and James developed into a lesbian one when James initiated an
intimate kiss with Stratus under a sprig of mistletoe, causing a surprised
Stratus to flee the locker room.[64]
The odd relationship between
Stratus and James continued into 2006, with the two Divas competing against each
other in a title match at New Year's Revolution, where Stratus emerged
victorious.[65] Despite the defeat, James continued to be enamored of Stratus
which made her feel uncomfortable.[66] On March 6, 2006 Stratus confronted
James, telling her that she needed space.[67] The duo briefly reconciled on the
March 18 edition of Saturday Night's Main Event, teaming together to defeat
Candice Michelle and Victoria. James, however, turned on Stratus after the match
and began to attack her.[68] A match at WrestleMania 22 saw Stratus lose the
Women's Championship to James.[69] During a rematch at Backlash Stratus suffered
a legitimate dislocated shoulder after taking a bump to the outside of the
ring.[70] While she was rehabilitating for six weeks she continued to appear
on-screen.[11][71]
Stratus returned to the ring on
June 26 and started a romantic angle with Carlito after he saved her from a
double team attack by Melina and Johnny Nitro.[72] They competed as a team and
won a mixed tag team match against Melina and Nitro at Saturday Night's Main
Event on July 15.[73] As a couple, Stratus and Carlito briefly feuded with WWE
Champion Edge and Lita after the pair interrupted Stratus' title match with
Mickie James. The two couples competed in several tag team matches, including a
six-person tag team match where Edge, Lita and Randy Orton defeated Stratus,
Carlito and John Cena after Orton RKO'd Stratus and Lita followed up with the
pin. Stratus' last match on Raw occurred on September 11, 2006 where she
defeated Mickie James.[74][75] In late August, Lita stated that Stratus would
retire following Unforgiven, which was later confirmed by Stratus.[76] At the
pay-per-view Unforgiven on September 17, in her hometown of Toronto,[77] Stratus
won against Lita with fellow Canadian Bret Hart's signature submission maneuver,
the Sharpshooter.[78][79][80]
Part-time appearances (2007–present)
Stratus made a special appearance
on December 10, 2007 during Raw's 15th Anniversary special along with Lita,
interrupting Jillian Hall as she sang by attacking her and then celebrating with
Lita.[81] Stratus made another special appearance on the May 5, 2008 episode of
Raw, as the event took place from her hometown, Toronto, Ontario, Canada. She
took part in a backstage segment involving Ron Simmons and Trevor Murdoch.[82]
Stratus wrestled her first match in over two years on the December 22, 2008
episode of Raw. She and John Cena defeated Santino Marella and her former
on-screen protégé Beth Phoenix in a mixed tag team match.[83] Stratus also
served as the guest hostess of the September 14, 2009 edition Raw in her home
town of Toronto. After a confrontation backstage with Phoenix and former
character beau Chris Jericho, she participated in what would be a six-person tag
team match with MVP and Mark Henry to defeat Phoenix, Jericho, and The Big Show.
Stratus made a surprise appearance
at the 2011 Elimination Chamber pay per view to announce that she would be a
trainer on the revival WWE Tough Enough. At the same event, she stopped
LayCool's attack on Kelly Kelly. Kelly and Stratus both celebrated the victory
shortly after. Stratus wrestled her first singles match since 2006 on the March
14, 2011 edition of Raw against Vickie Guerrero in a losing effort, due to
interference from LayCool and Dolph Ziggler. After the match, John Morrison and
Raw guest star of the night Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi (from the MTV series Jersey
Shore) came to her aid. Guerrero then challenged Stratus, Morrison and Snooki to
a match at WrestleMania XXVII against the team of LayCool and Ziggler. On the
March 21 edition of Raw, Stratus teamed with Morrison in a losing effort to
LayCool, Guerrero, and Ziggler. At WrestleMania 27, Stratus and her team of
Snooki and Morrison beat the team of Ziggler and LayCool. The night after
WrestleMania, on Raw, Stratus and Morrison once again defeated Guerrero and
Ziggler in a rematch. She appeared on the June 6 episode of Raw, in a backstage
segment with fellow "Tough Enough" trainer, Booker T before being interrupted by
Jack Swagger. She appeared on the September 16, 2011 episode of SmackDown, in
her hometown of Toronto. In this episode, she was seen backstage with fellow
Torontonians Edge and Christian, with Edge stating that Christian needs to stop
whining and be a man.
Other
media
From 2001, Stratus was a
spokesperson for the World Natural Sports Association.[2][84] On June 3, 2006,
she hosted the Canada's Walk of Fame induction ceremony and performed a song and
dance number inspired by the soundtrack from the film Chicago at the
event.[85][86] During the show, Stratus ad libbed a kiss with fellow Canadian
actress Pamela Anderson.[77][85][87]
From late November 2006 to
mid-January 2007, Stratus temporarily moved to Muncie, Indiana for the CBS
reality show Armed & Famous.[88][89][90] She was given a spot in the series
after Paul Heyman had mentioned her name to CBS.[88] The concept was that she
was one of five celebrities who trained as volunteer officers with the Muncie
Police Department.[91] After finishing her training, Stratus and her real life
officer partner were followed around by a camera crew while going on legitimate
police calls.[89] Although the show was scheduled to broadcast seven episodes
starting on January 10, 2007, CBS canceled the series after just four of the
episodes were aired.[88][91][92]
After the cancellation of Armed &
Famous, Stratus hosted The Second City's Next Comedy Legend.[88] The contest was
similar to the style of America's Next Top Model, with Stratus portraying the "Tyra
Banks" role as contact between the contestants and judges. Stratus also
guest-starred in the Canadian show Da Kink in My Hair's new season, which
started on February 12, 2009.[93]
In September 2007, Stratus
announced that she would be opening a yoga studio in Vaughan, Ontario called
Stratusphere Yoga in 2008. Also in 2008, she hosted her own travel show also
called Stratusphere.[94][95] She has an appearance in Smackdown vs. Raw 2010 as
an unlockable character. Trish is also a downloadable character in WWE '12 the
video game. Trish will be starring in the upcoming Canadian independent movie
Bail Enforcers, playing bounty hunter Jules Taylor, scheduled for release in
2011, premiering at ActionFest 2011.[96]
Personal life
Stratigias is of Greek and Polish
descent and is the eldest daughter of John and Alice Stratigias.[3][16] Her
sisters are named Christie and Melissa.[16] Stratigias married her high school
sweetheart and boyfriend of fourteen years, Ron Fisico, on September 30,
2006.[88][77][91] Guests in attendance at her wedding included current WWE Divas
Lilian Garcia, and former WWE Divas Lita, Ivory, Molly Holly, Torrie Wilson,
Victoria, Maria Kanellis, Ashley Massaro, and Mickie James.[3] Her bridal gown
was featured on a cover of Today's Bride magazine.[13] Shortly after the
wedding, Stratus got the call to be a part of Armed & Famous, so she filmed the
show instead of going on her honeymoon. Stratigias has also been involved with
numerous charities such as Ronald McDonald House, Dreams Take Flight and the
Special Olympics.[97] On March 29, 2008, she participated in the Island
Triathlon Series as part of a celebrity relay team to help raise money for
