Trish Stratus

25:51Like looking at him so lovingly, all evil, you know, and I'm like just thinking this is working and he loves me so much. And, you know, then he proceeds to tell me in no uncertain terms that he knows what's happened. He called me a certain name. He pie faces me. But when I go down, I'm wearing a very low cut wedding dress as one does. Of course. Naturally. To renew your wedding dress. Of course. And once again, I see our cameraman at the time, Marty, and he's like pointing like crazy. And I'm like, oh, my God, you know, and he stuck it back in there. And it's so embarrassing and it's horrifying.

26:35But again, getting back to thank God social media didn't exist. And that footage was supposedly burned. I don't think they ever picked up that camera angle. They didn't pick up that particular camera. They are searching right now. Because I think they could see that they shouldn't. They're trying to find it. Yeah, someone probably is. But that, yeah. So tell that guy in the comments to shut up. It's just funny every time. It's like there was a pedigree. But it was funny to be bent over like that and be not like, what could I do? I mean, I'm just staring at him. I'm like, oh, shit, they're there.

27:09Here we go. And I'm about to go through a table. Well, at least he had some cushioning on for that bump. You're welcome. Oh, my. Oh, horrifying. I mean, see, that's the thing, you know. I know wrestling is hard, guys. It is. But as a woman, we have a lot more to think about. We do. We got things popping out. We got stuff things in. You got to tape them up, right? You know, it's things we got to do. A lot of stuff. How much sticky tape or whatever it's called? What's it called? Topstick? Topstick. But now they have lots of different types of tape. Yeah. Yeah. Topstick is actually used for toupees.

27:42And we then applied a great use out of it, actually. Yes. And, you know, sometimes tuchus, like, just, you know, tape your pants, your shorts. No, this is fascinating. Makes sense, right? Fascinating. right what's the most like educated obscure thing you ever had to do gear wise um like what was happening to me yeah like I don't know like you know like you said you had the wedgie my boobs popped out like what happened you know anything I was pretty good like it's funny because someone recently said I read a comment what's going on we we don't pay we don't care about you but we do um someone said something like um well she's a lot more covered up than she used to be back in the day.

28:21But like, if you look at my gear, I was always, I went through this thing where I was like, I want people to look at my wrestling, not my ass, you know? And so I, on purpose was like dressing, like I wear the pants and I, most of my matches, I think I wore shorts like three times in my whole thing, which is, which mostly was with you. Don't forget our strap match. Oh, how could I forget? Tell me more. Tell me more. We'll have to roll. Yeah, we'll tell, we'll tell. We'll tell more. Oh, and so my outfits were quite, you know, they're kind of like good pants and tops. But my retirement match, Unforgiven, the pants were just falling off.

28:57I had plumbers crack the entire time. And you don't want to be like, it takes you so hard at the moment. You just have to leave it and go, oh, my ass is showing right now. That's a live show for you. Yeah, you just, you know. And it is the worst to see someone in the moment trying to adjust. It's true. It takes you right out of the match, you know. Not us. The audience. You can't take the audience. I don't want to take this away from you. You know what I mean? Because if my head was really hurting that much, I would not care that my ass was hanging out, right? Right. So you're welcome, is what I said after that.

29:27That's the reality in which we live in. Yes. Which is a totally normal world. Not too many conundrums and bad things happening with my wardrobe, luckily. Oh, that's great. From what I recall. Yeah, good for you. Good for you. Lucky for you. and that you could still remain i mean it wasn't it in roman's interview on the pod he talked about trish he had a trish poster this is a well-known thing and i am aware of this oh yeah okay great yes so it's well it wasn't just him so then it basically every guest whole domino and then it was like everyone goes oh yeah trish it's not even just they say your name is like this visceral reaction to Trish Stratus, right?

30:10I wore this shirt when I came back recently. It was your first crush. And everyone was like, yeah. So now everything I signed, you're like, could you just write my first crush? This is a thing. That's really cute. Really cute. Yeah. You know, it's a thing. I like that. I don't mind being people's first crush. I don't mind current crush. Whatever. Whatever. Yeah. I feel like, I used to be my first crush. I'm like, used to? I still am. Come on now. The cool thing is I'm like the dad. He's like, my dad. And then now the kid. I'm like their crush. It's like I'm generational crush material. That's quite a claim to fame.

30:44I've been around, kids. I've been around for a while. No, no. But I mean, a lot of people have been around. Not a lot of people have been around and look like you. Well, you know. You know what I'm saying? I do the essential amino acid. They're not like, oh, you were my dad's crush. Moving on. Right. You're their crush, too. My dad really liked you. You were my dad's crush. Right. I don't know why. You're a hag. You were their second crush. First crush, second crush. You don't count after. It just becomes. It's just a blur. You remember your first crush and that's it. And the rest are just a bunch of people that you liked until you got married or something.

31:17I agree. I agree. And once again, I'm going to pitch a merch line. I think you should do. I might be on that already. Thanks. Oh, thanks. I might have my people on that. Yeah. Well, you are ever the businesswoman. I just dropped a calendar, a 2026 calendar. Oh, it is your first crush's first calendar. So you can have your first crush up for the entire year. Is that the red boots outfit? Oh, that's the red costume. That's the inspo for your outfit. What I'm doing today. Just a little more covered up. No, I'm telling you, she's wearing it. Underneath? Yes. Yes. Okay, yeah. Underneath. Okay, no. I can't even tell.

31:51I can't even tell. Because then the boots were too much with the outfit. Yeah, it was bulky. It got a little bulky. I'm sitting next to you guys. I didn't want to overdo it. Right, right. Last year, my team was like, we're like, we got to do a calendar. And like, we've been saying this for a long time, but I was like, who puts calendars up anymore? Like, it was a thing like, you know, people do apparently. I didn't. I do. You need to know what day it is. I mean, like hot girls calendar. That feels so like, doesn't it feel like very 90s? Yes. That is what happened. They do like the hot fireman calendar still.

32:20Yeah. We got to take it back from the boys. Yeah. Well, it's, so I will confirm people do buy calendars. Oh yeah. No, they buy your calendar. It was a hot drop. But is that picture from that? It is. And we should definitely show it just because she's so hot. I mean, so if you want this calendar. Yeah. Oh, that's the cover. That is the calendar. And the pictures. And Elise's outfit. I already own it. That's Elise's. That is. So if you guys want to envision what she's wearing underneath, that is it right there. And she looks like that. I just feel like we're picking on me now. It was weird. You were sitting like that.

32:51I'm like, oh, my God, my thing. Yeah. Just like as soon as I wear this outfit. I will reenact. Yeah. No, it's good. Please. I almost did. Funnest thing ever, though. Shooting it like 12. We did 12 different looks, of course, unique shoots, or looks. Six in one day, six in one day, 15-hour shoot days. Like, this is how I work, though. I love to just, like, my - You're such a hard worker. I just, like, I'm in it, I'm in it. I'm, like, immersive. I like to do it, and I'm, like, all in. But I'm very compartmentalized. Like, don't give me it. Don't ask me about something else. I cannot give you my attention.

33:20I'm on this right now. Then I'm like, yes, what is this compartment? I can open it for a second, but I need to go back to this compartment, you know? I'm the same way, actually. Yeah. Yeah, I hyper-focus. yeah yeah good and bad agreed yeah she can focus on like six different things at one time yeah i just don't have a choice okay yeah no but i would mess up you don't mess up well like the joke is that i'm on the phone with her and i'm like okay did you text so-and-so or and then she goes silent i'm like oh you're doing it right now she's like oh yeah that's every time i'm like that's amazing she's like you know that I can open this compartment in a short amount of time but it's one thing that has to get my attention I feel like you need someone that can do both it's very helpful this works she's phenomenal in everything the multitasking it's not the outfit going back to our strap match because it's just a funny story do you remember the term Well, first of all, we were very honored to have a particular agent for that match.

34:23This would be Pat Patterson? Pat Patterson, who had never really done the women's matches and was known for his psychology and drama and always worked with the main event matches. And here he is. And Trish and I are like, oh my gosh. We are both just freaking out. Because totally, Pat is laying the match out. And do you remember the term he called us? Oh, you told me this. Yeah, I do. Do you read? Can we? I think there's a way to say it. Okay, so we can say it. Yeah, go ahead. So he called us. Technically, what he said is the one does to the other. And he's like laying out the match. There were other people.

35:05We were all like, no, no, actually, we did that internally because we wanted to look cool. And like, yeah, that's totally fine that you referred to us like that. Yeah. but the first time am i one or two obviously number one i'm the number one number two number one i see a t-shirt i see a t-shirt add it to the line number one number two it's like thing one thing two dr su's wouldn't mind no i don't totally this is not about the acceptable yep it rhymes so it's my wow oh my goodness yep And then we just went with it. We did, but when he first said it, it was like a little bit like this. But he didn't, you know, he just said it so nonchalantly.

35:45Just like that is, like might as well have been our names. Maybe **** in French means amazing wrestler. That's what I was. I can confirm it is not correct. Yeah, that's, yeah, yeah. Plus, putting the box. Thank you. Speaking of box. If you say the word **** eight times, That's what happened. Oh, are we doing that? Why? I'm trying to make people. Oh my gosh, look at you abusing me. Yes. Again. She has pants, but they're cool pants. I played soccer, woman. Look out. Look at us. Oh yeah. Slap your slaps out. The slaps are live. Those are great. Remember, we always have like a running agreement of like, we're just going to slap the shit out of each other.

36:28Oh yeah. Yes. Okay, cool. You can't. Yeah. And slaps, they have to look, I mean, they have to look good. They have to sound good. you can't fake them. Oh, look out. Oh, here she goes. Boom! Oh, I didn't sell it at all. There we go. You know what's funny, though? Because that hurts. So sometimes it's such a shock that your body's like, oh, yeah, you figure out how to take it. And then, yeah. And that adds a drama to it. After a while, you start going like, you're making like funny sounds. It's like, it's like, she's stuck in a foot. Like, it's like, she's getting me again. Ouch. Oh, my God. I like that.

37:06Polly, help me. The casual fall into the announcer's table. Performer. Look at that performer. Please watch out. Look how lovely I am. Oh my God. Amazing. Amazing. Oh my God, I forgot about that. I can't. Not my bestie. I can't. That's so good. Oh, you're evil. Always. You gotta be evil. And I like how, and then, oh, slam that. Yeah, right into my back. Right into the kidney. Oh, I love it. The slope and the big dramatic grab. Gotcha. I've got you. The drama was real. I don't even know what's happening. Oh, I feel that. Oh, okay. I thought it was going to be a worldly bird. Big boot to the midsection.

37:47I like the come here for the clothes. Your outfit is just killing me. Why? I don't know. You don't hate on my outfit. The yoga pants and the t-shirt? I don't know. They're just all over. Oh, yeah. Ow, bitch. You got to go when you get my health. It really hurts. Ow. oh i like oh and this okay oh god this is my favorite this commentary i am so rough so rough so rough but i love it it's so raw look at it it's like so raw oh my gosh girl don't get up there oh what's happening now i don't even definitely this doesn't work for me just kidding oh now i'm vulnerable now i got you look at that i'm what do i do i'm caught up oh i know you're gonna get right in the butt.

38:30There's only one option. Yeah, you are. Yeah, specking. Fat girl. I like that your hand just keeps going back there. Oh, it's so good. Oh, by the way, it stung. I remember it caught my hand a couple times when I was trying to block it. It really, but especially like when it gets to her appendages. Regal must have been like, I think maybe he was working for me at the time. Well, for the management, you know, for the family. Oh, oh, oh, no. Not in the belly. Oh, watch out. Oh. Okay, that hurts. I wonder if this was the one I had very... Welts? Welts, yes. Oh, Jericho. Oh, okay. What is Jericho doing in here?

39:14Everybody's surprised. Okay, okay. Guys, I feel like we're watching it for the first time. He's clearly on your side. All of us. It was 20 years ago, okay? It really was a long time ago. Okay. Oh, and why was he chasing me? Because you're a filthy, dirty... Bottom feeding, trash bag hoe. That's why. That's why. See? It makes total sense. Are you okay, Trish? Everybody always cater to you. I mean, look what she did to her stomach. Whatever. She gets me first. She saw her lay in those shots. I'm not sure if this was the match. There was a match where there was a meeting in the morning, maybe the morning after.

39:46It could be another straw match. I think I've had other straw matches. And Lillian. I did not. Lillian felt awful because she, that night, put the salve. She buried you. Remember the salve? Yes. Is it salve? We don't have it in Canada. What's it called? Salve, I think. Salve? some kind of an ointment. I think it's S-A-L-V-E. Salve. Salve. Yes. Salve. Salve. Salve. Okay. So I thought it was a brand name this whole time, literally. So I didn't know what it was either when it was brought up. I'm just repeating the word. Okay, so she was like, I just want to let you guys know that like, you know, last night I was tending to her wounds and I had to put Salve on her.

40:18It was bad. This was the producer's meeting, which is now all of the male producers. All the boys. Right, all the boys. And me. Yeah. And she made a big thing of it, right? But innocent. like for my friend and she's like maybe next time you guys you want to think about maybe using a different strap it was from the best intentions totally from the best place really she just felt awful and like maybe moving forward people don't have to have welts like this on their back because she couldn't even sit and we were driving the whole way she had to sit forward and like I was like so imagine and I was like I was like I wouldn't you know if anyone came to me that next day and said are you okay like I'm like yeah totally fine like I mean I have black eyes and broken noses and I'm like totally fine totally good right so like the fact that she's saying that I'm like I didn't I didn't not say ow.

40:59I didn't say ow. Cringe, cringe, cringe. I didn't know someone else who said ow. Yeah, that was crazy, but in the most innocent, lovely, loving. She really meant the best for you. I remember the moment and I remember going, no! You're like this. Lily and I was. I was like, no! I don't know who looked worse. Was it her or me? No, no, no. It was her. I was like, I don't know what you're talking about. You were like, I don't even know this person. I enjoy welts. Do it again right now. Don't talk to me, Blondie. Who are you? oh my lord yeah that was i remember shane told me he came to me and told me he's like just so you know your girl yeah but also all yeah so oh she's so sweet she is she's so sweet she's the best yeah and an incredible performer herself and what what a voice she has i know i was called the golden voice yeah i love it when she comes back i know i love like i love that we all get to come back thank you guys isn't that amazing right for me i mean she yeah um evolution she called my match I was like, we're like, what is this?

41:5620, how is this possible? It's 2025, she's calling me a match. And like, what? I'm wrestling in a championship match? So crazy. What year is this? I feel like the audience too, every time she comes back for a show, they're like, they're with her. Oh yeah. You know? Yeah, how can you not? She's just so good. She just has that like gravitas. Hall of Fame. Eventually. She doesn't yell it upstairs. Hall of Fame. There's people here, right? The writer's room is actually at the top of the stairs. Oh, well then, isn't there a match given, a match award every Hall of Fame? oh yeah i'm just saying yes the classic definitely i mean come on now yeah there's nobody could recreate what we did out so there's probably no way i'm like oh did i do my canadian thing you're welcome yeah yeah okay i'm canadian so yeah that's why we did it thank you so we also did an episode of weakest link oh my goodness we did do you remember that Yeah, speaking of being Canadian.

42:52Yeah, I know. That's the only reason I did not move on because. Goobers, right? No, it was glossettes. Because the answer was goobers. I don't know. But you didn't know. It was like, what is a glossette here? What is a glossette here? What is a glossette here? What is a glossette here? What is a glossette here? Or something like that. So confidently, I'm like, glossettes. Which, not a glossette ever even heard of. You guys were like, what did she just say? And we were all on the same team in WWE. Well, we were competing against each other. But ultimately, it's for money that went to charity. Yeah.

43:21So I say it. Oh, goodness. Is this here? Okay. You are the weakest link. You are the weakest link. Goodbye. How young we all are. Oh, my God. Such a young. Look at you. So cute. Look at you. You are so cute. Oh, goodness. Yeah. That's really cute. Glossettes. The little pee-pee voice. And she's so confident. Booker. I know. I was just thinking. This was so fun. And do you know who it came down to? Me and Paul. Destined to be together. You knew good girls. Yeah, we were not. I don't know if we were even together at this point. But destined to be together. Destined. Yeah. That was not fair, though, because of my - Big show.

44:00I should have got some consideration there. It is correct. You all the weakest link. Goodbye. In Canada. We were all like, oh, Canadian. Oh, she's Canadian. Well, you had - Also, there was another holiday that got botched because - Of the Canadian. You don't celebrate it or something. I don't know what it was. It's not fair. That wasn't fair. It was fun. I want a rematch. okay weakest link yeah she's still around yeah is she i don't know somebody's doing that very very famous host oh so it is the show is wwe should totally do another i'm in i'm down i have to redeem myself call me i'm available yeah hall of fame yeah hall of fame edition yeah yeah all right there we go okay i like this there i'm not brush up on your candy skills like i'm I was all right.

44:49You know, afterwards I was asked if I wanted to host one of the upcoming game shows that they had. Yeah. Because I was going back and forth with the host so much. Not that I could with Jane Lynch, but at the time I could. And I remember her saying something about, Stephanie, I thought you were a wrestler. Where are your muscles? Now, meanwhile, it takes her like, because she's being fed from a team of writers. Right. Right? And I said, I got two big ones right here. Oh, my God. That's the clip. And if you go back to when I was pedigreed one time on the... You can find the clip. It was so funny.

45:30So, I mean, you know, obviously I didn't go with that opportunity. But I was so honored that they would even consider asking me to do that. You get like some interesting job offers due to our exposure from this business, right? Yeah. Have you turned down a lot of interesting things? Not really. Well, I also am not aware of a lot of things that have come through. I've been turning them down left and right. Yeah, I mean, I don't think I was ever in the hottest of demand, except maybe to be a host at one point. Yes. I never wanted to do that. You did the Celebrity Boss. Oh, yeah. Undercover Boss.

46:03Well, Celebrity. Yeah, the Celebrity Version. That was fun. Did you do that? I did. I didn't see that. That's fun. No, it was so cool. And it was exactly what I expected because, you know, our fans know our brand. Yeah. And I went in, my character was, you know, with like prosthetics and stuff. Although Paul said I looked exactly the same. Oh my God. He looked exactly the same with blonde hair. And meanwhile, I was in makeup for four hours every day. Maybe like a little more chin. Chin and cheeks. Well, no, not the chin because when you talk. Oh, yes. That's what it was. Prosthetic. Yeah. Yeah.

46:33So it was like eyebrows. It was all kinds of weird stuff, but little things. But our fans were just right there because the whole thing was I was a sports writer, but I didn't understand the world of professional wrestling. So they had to like sell me on professional wrestling. Oh, that's fun. And it was really cool. And the people that I got to interact with were amazing. And they all told me about the brand and everything that we would do in the community and what it was really all about and how it brings people together. I mean, really like everything that I would ever say about our product as chief brand officer, they would say just because.

47:09Like our fans like advocating for like how special this product is. Yeah. And it didn't surprise me one bit. Yeah. You know, like it was just so incredible. Like that was really remarkable. And one of them was a photographer. I think it's Stephen Wright is his name. And he was a vet who had lost his leg. And WWE had gotten him through because he was watching videos while he was in recovery. And he was on the brink of, you know, taking his own life is what he said. And he, if I remember correctly, and it was really like grounding for him to watch for whatever reason. It's like the escapism, right?

47:49Like it takes them away from what this, this crappy job or this world. Or it was something he did with his family that like made him feel a certain way. But it was all about how it made him feel and it helped him get him through. So then here we are and we're shooting B-roll. And, you know, I'm not, I'm not supposed to break character. and all of a sudden he's showing me pictures that he took at this Wrestlemania because he happened to be the photographer at that Wrestlemania and there was a picture of Conor and he told me Conor's story oh my gosh and if you watch the videos of Conor just prior to that which I watched on the plane ride home you see the different angle right so this is the other side and when you watch the video back you can actually see this photographer spin into frame and take the picture wow so cool and it just felt like you know power so humbling right like just powers beyond yeah you know yeah it's pretty special it's so special yeah I know we definitely get some moments like it isn't it's incredible to see the impact that are what we think we're just doing our job right and how it affects people yeah and i think it takes like i would i don't think i realized i mean a lot of it i didn't really even amy and i talk about this all the time how lita guys that's lita um we like the the first ever woman um main event right yeah we like yeah we just didn't want to shit the bed that night that was our objective right way better like quality match i'll just say we did actually still stands a test we gotta say like yeah um but um we don't we didn't realize it was like gonna be this like rung on the ladder that eventually would you know be the rise of women's wrestling you know so it's like so cool and that it's still talked about today or or that it i'm getting goosebumps um that it inspired like you know charlotte was in the front row right yeah that's watching that saying okay i want i want to do this i see i can i can do it yeah she can see it she can be it you know yeah um so it's just like yeah when we do our things we just think we're doing our job and it didn't take me until i retired stepped back from everything then went back into it and started doing the meet and greets and talking with, and like, you know, this is one thing I love about as a retired, it's such a retired kind of sort of person is I have the, this is what I do is I do like the meet and greets, but you have time because, you know, obviously WWE, there's just like, you gotta go, right?

50:15But these, I get to like chat and hear the stories and like going, I do an autograph signing in a town that like that person was like, okay, that was my first wrestling match or I went with my, you know, they have these stories that are like local and stuff, but you realize the impact and it's just, you don't realize it When we're going out, they're just doing our job, what you're actually doing to people. And it's like, or when a young girl says like, I wanna be just like you, right? It's not that they wanna be a wrestler. They wanna be someone who is groundbreaking, following their passion, making a woman in a male-dominated world, whatever it is, like they're taking that piece of you that we get to do and applying it to their life.

50:45And it's very special. It really is. It's remarkable. It's like so humbling. It is. It's such a privilege when you hear that. Yeah. Yeah. So that's why when my daughter talks, I'm like, do you know who you're talking to? Go ask those fans that lined up for me. Yeah, it doesn't matter, right? They would eat my chicken. Eat your food. No, she loves my chicken. Okay. She loves broccoli too, so. Oh, okay. Oh, no. That's the other line. No, for sure. That's the meal prep line, obviously. The what? The meal prep line that you're going to put out. That's obviously the. Yeah. I mean, for sure. I'll be sponsoring your podcast.

51:24Oh, you better. I have no problems with that. As long as it's displayed here. And it won't. And people have to eat during their interview. Oh, for sure. I mean, because. That won't be awkward at all. And I want you to eat corn on the cob. Just because it'd be fun to watch. I mean, we should do that in our holiday special with Trish. Corn on the cob. Corn on the cob. Yes, we need to all eat, the three of us at the same time, eat the corn on the cob. Yeah. And try to like not talk with our mouth to show our teeth afterwards. Like all the. Work it. All the husks. But no fingers. You can't. What? Nope.

51:54Are we eating it? Oh, okay. Wait. how we can eat. No, no, no. I'm saying after. I'm saying after. We're eating again. I'm picturing like a after, after. Okay. Yeah, that's new. Back to your move. What do I think? Oh, bobbing for apples. I went to bobbing for apples. Remember? Oh, yeah. Why? At Halloween? Yeah, that was always terrible to mess up your face in here. So for the Halloween special, guys, tune in for apple bobbing. Then, of course, tune in for the Trishman special where we'll be eating corn on the cob without our hands. Long way. No? I like it. I mean, I think it works. That's the commercial.

52:26So just, if you want to pass it out. Please vote. Please vote. Yes. Yes. I use the little things. I got the cute little. Oh, yeah. The coin things. What are they called? They're like, it's a cute little corn. Corn knobs. Corn what? Where they're called? Corn knobs? Are they the little knobs? They have a name? Skewers? Corn skewers. They do have a name.

Corn knobs. Corn knobs. I like that. No? It rhymes with corn nuts, which isn't a pleasant thing to me. Corn knobs. What? I have little cow. Corn knobs. Yes. and it was the front of the cow and the back of the cow. Oh, that's cute. And it was cute. And then the pig. Yeah, my kids loved those. Oh my God, guys, I'm seeing a whole line. You can do a whole thing with this. You know, obviously for mine, it'd be like a goat.

53:32So like on the front end of your... Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, it could work. Yeah. It could happen. Johnson, I can use it, but it's mine. It's fine for the commercial. Anyway.

55:02Speaking of cord knobs. I mean, it's because of your cooking. but has she shown any interest i know i believe both of your kids were at one of your recent matches yeah the um elimination chamber in toronto yes um which is crazy that like i look back at 2025 and i was like i wrestled three times in the 2025 like some people on the may roster don't even get yeah you know what i mean it's like i can't i p p p pay per view you'll get you'll get it i can't it's no it's hard but you'll get it i'm so old school that i have to say pay review but I won't it is hard um because I could do media training um yes so they came for the first time and and like mildly interested they got it they get the you know what it is but to see me live I think was like something game changer yes and then they came to evolution and so Maddie seeing all the women was like she was addicted like she was like okay so wait did he did he betray her like and you know she's seeing the storyline right yeah right and then She's like, mom, I don't know why.

56:00Like she was very upset afterwards when I lost to Tiffany Stratton. And she says, she's like, okay, why? They don't understand. Almost like, you dummy. No, no, you dummy. It's like the mindset. She was like, why didn't you just roll away? Right? My daughter would say very logical things too. Yeah, why didn't you just roll? I was like, she's like, listen, you have to dodge. She kept saying, you gotta dodge. You gotta dodge these moves. Like you could just move this way. If she's going this way, you move this way. I'm like, okay. Very logical. And watching with her is funny because she'll call things.

56:26She's like, what is that? Why would you even go that way? Why did you turn into her? I'm like, I don't know. I'm feeding. I'm feeding. I don't know. So yeah, very cute. Max is like interested, but not like he would never got super into it. But, you know, Maddie really like thought it was cool. But then I asked her, I'm like, do you want to be wrestling? She kind of like she'd start doing some, you know, movement. She looked a little, you know, but she goes, yeah, I do. But like, I don't want to get hurt. So I was like, yeah. Okay, so. So it's not for you. No strap magic. Yeah. You could be a performer like Steph.

56:55just get that slap just you gotta work on that one move that's right one one move that's it that's all you need just one that's one just one you're really good on the mic as well oh thank you very good thank you yes you must that's that's my secret weapon yeah yeah it's not secret we we're well aware oh well it's the only like that in the slap well and i can take some bumps i could take you know i could take a beating we do enjoy it though i i think that was part of us coming up. This is part of our sickness a little bit. Yes. But we had to like prove to the boys that we could take it and like not like be bothered by it.

57:26So I think that's where that mindset came from us. You know, like we'll do anything. We'll take anything. Yeah. Like I remember taking Kane's choke slam. It was in Toronto. I remember Vince, like he's like, it's going to be great. He's like, they're going to cheer you. And then you just, you just turn and then we're going to come, we're going to give you a huge choke slam right in the middle. I was like, I love it. I love it. Let's do it. He's so tall, right? Like I mean, ridiculously tall. What are we, like, we're almost seven feet there? Yeah. What is an arm? What is an arm? A length is approximately a foot.

57:52He's a big man. Big man. So I'm, like, eight feet in the air coming down. I was, like, I remember going, where's the ground already? Should I be there already? It was really far. Yes, yes. That must have been a rough one. We need to keep my shoulder out. For continuity. Yes, come on. Yeah, so. Are you going to show your outfit? Oh, yeah. Is it time for the reveals? Take it off, please. Okay. I was going to take out my shoulder. I just want to be like Trish. next episode we should both have inspired by yeah okay yeah off the shoulders you could cut it you could get a large you know whatever you want to do all right i remember aaron murphy talking about our kids oh here it is here's the chokes on this is definitely worth replaying look how high i went look how big he is he's very big he's so bad he's no mask he's king he's conflicted he's like no no he's like no i'm a good man i'm a good man i'm gonna be a mayor but man am i i'm gonna be a politician.

58:48Look at that look. My evil side. But she is a bitch. Oh my. Wham. So high. Oh, Trish. Damn. Come on. Damn. That was, I felt that. Yeah. Yeah. That was great. You were up there. Yeah, it was really fun. You went for the ride. It felt like slow. I was like slow motion. It was so long. Oh my God, are you alive? The referee's like, oh, can you breathe? Please squeeze my hand. Did you ever have the wind knocked out of you? No. I did. Oh, not, when knocked down, but yes. I meant like, um, like, um, oh no. Yeah. No, no. Concussion. Concussion. Yes. Certainly. I have a concussion right now. Sorry. It was like a instant concussion that just happened.

59:29I don't know. It doesn't happen. It didn't get older, I guess. Um, oh yeah. Many, many times. It's rough. It's ouch. Yeah. What was your worst? I did it to myself in a match with Lita. Okay. And she was running me. You can't remember. You're like, which match? Yeah. Right. Cause there's like a ton of them. so she's running me into the into the ring only i don't jump for some reason and i run myself straight into the side of the ring completely knock the wind i mean i was going fast too and i completely knocked the wind out of myself yes and she like picks me up and i look heavy legit and she rolls me in the ring and i am sipping air oh yeah i am staring at the lights like Like you think you're going to die.

1:00:12You know, like, holy shit, this is it. This is how I'm going. This is how I'm going to go. And Lita gets on me, right? And I'm supposed to be doing all this stuff that I am not doing. You just can't. I'm trying to survive. And then finally she grabs my hair and she goes, Steph, get on me. Yes. Can you? Can you? Can you? Can you? And then suddenly, somehow I got my win back right in that moment. and then we were able to finish the match, but it was awful. Isn't it adrenaline is something? Adrenaline is crazy. Like what we can do on adrenaline is insane. Like, I mean, we know that, but like - Greatest drug on earth ever.

1:00:49Yes, adrenaline. What match was it? Mickey James and I had a match and I dislocated my shoulder and we'd been working, like we'd been doing this, like there was a, we went to the corner, I was doing like the 10 punch and then she tossed me off when it happened at the live events a couple of times and it was like, got a great reaction. So we're like, all right, again let's do it let's do it right so we're going 10 punches for their counting crowds into it right and she tosses me off and i'm as i'm falling i'm like oh steps there's steps there there was not steps so i couldn't take a nice clean fall so i put my hand down to hit the apron to like pivot myself so that i cannot land on the steps but then in doing so i also my arm stayed there while my body went the other way and i dislocated the shoulder and i was just like the worst pain but you see like we're in character so there's a moment so i'm talking smack to her and my arm's just dangling out of his socket.

1:01:36I'm like, you better do it. And the minute it went dark, I was like, oh, my shoulder. But we're still in it. We are still in it. We are not giving it up. Until that goes dark, I will talk shit. That's right. I will keep talking shit. You took that to my shoulder. Hang in there. It hurts a lot. Oh, I remember Fit popped it back in. I was like, oh, better. Oh, yeah, he did? He did. But you think it's better, but then you have a fracture. The tendons were all stretched. Oh, you had a fracture. You had a fracture. It took me a little while. Yeah. but we got there yeah got a good reaction it works now ish when it's cold it's creaky honestly yoga is my lifesaver yes yes like so if you're like how do you keep going i'm like it's like i i feel the number you know a lot of people what is the number one advice you have for wrestlers and that people get a deep we talk character and psychology and you know good foundation for training and things like that i'm like do yoga do fucking yoga like i'm telling Total core control, right?

1:02:31It's not just core. Honestly, it keeps your joints lubricated. It keeps your body, mobility is number one. As you're aging, mobility is, if you can, you know, going into your 40s, 50s, 60s, like if you can move and keep moving. And you have to keep moving. You have to keep moving. Because if you stop, you stiffen up. Yeah, you do. Yeah. And then you think you're in pain, so therefore you can't. Right. But, so it's like a total downward spiral. Yeah. But really you have to just push through the pain. Yeah. And yeah, it gets a little painful as you get older. You mean like with the stretching and the stuff?

1:02:59Yeah. Yeah, yeah. Or whatever. I can't do yoga. I can't touch my toes. I'm like, that's, you know. No, but you can, you can. But like, that's why you should do yoga, right? So then eventually, but no, it's so important. I think it's like how I'm able to go back and like, just, I can move like that. Like I just can move. It's still like, my body's still, it's tricky. It's awesome. There's moments where you're like, so I remember getting the 2018 was the Royal Rumble, first ever women's Royal Rumble, right? Oh yeah. And I remember getting the call and I was like, I was like, I don't know, it's been like 10 years.

1:03:25Popped up two babies. I'm like, I don't think so. um and so before I remember again the class like um I'll I'll check my schedule like what you have of course I'm gonna do it right but I was like I'm gonna this is me this is my level of like if I'm gonna be I've always said to you if I can't give 100 % I'm not I'm not gonna give you here's a cool 60 guys you know so like in general that's your approach that is my approach I'm gonna do 100 % I'm not gonna do it all and so I before I said yes I went to a ring I'm like I'm like called my guy I'm like can we set up the ring I need to like and I just was like let me just do of my greatest hits is if I can do them.

1:03:55And I remember thinking like, oh, it's bad. Right. And I looked at my video and I'm like, oh my God, she's not bad. It was just like, yeah, but there's also muscle memory. It's like, it's like for us, it's like riding a bike, right? So your body remembers like the things that we do. Right. Right. Certain things. I mean, I've never worked with the Bella twins, but look how fun. That was so fun. That was so fun because at that point too, now I've been retired for several years. What? Oh my God. Several years, 2006, I retired. Yeah. And how many matches have you had since then? I had two. Because it was a true WWE retirement.

1:04:29Yeah, exactly. Oh, yeah, no, that was. It sounds good at the time. You're like, I'm getting, I'm retired now, this moment. Yeah. Oh, this was such a good moment. You know, it's funny. This, Nikki and I have like, this, this is our favorite. I remember you were going crazy on commentary right now. Like, oh, they love this. the crazy thing is is like this match was being put together there was no moment for mickey and trish and like so we're all seeing the group and there's like 30 women so you don't be like oh excuse me right i need my spot yeah right so but we did on the set i'm like i kind of feel like maybe if mickey can like stick around till later it could be a little moment and we were met with what kind of moment though and we're like because it's mickey and trish because they're like that was so long ago and i was like but i think i kind of i think they might remember so now we've we've pushed, we've, you know, we went to bat.

1:05:19We were like, we need to deliver now. Right. So we like, we were like hoping we're like, Oh, I hope they're, Oh shit. What if they don't remember? Right. Yeah. Then you're doubting. Then they're like, see, they didn't care. Like I told you. So why did you, right. Right. So then they cared. It was cool. It was nice to have that. Like, I mean, we talk about, that's why we got so close when you work with people, you, the bond you get with people, like they're your, there's nothing else like it. They're your everything for, especially during your, not to say afterwards, you're not, but during that time when you're working a program that is your person like you're like a movie i imagine yeah you know i mean not that i've ever been in a movie but i think yes you have you have but you must get so close to you know like in the seat like when you're in it to your points like you always have that bond no matter what yeah it's like a true friend it doesn't matter how long you don't see them when you do see each other yeah you pick right back up yeah well i mean and also you're going through this thing we're like we have the same mission we're out there to like you know entertain the crowd evoke emotion from the crowd like we know we have the same drive we have the same same thing we're doing out there but also just like to know we're trusting each other's bodies like i'm yeah you know it's a whole other level literally yeah yeah putting my body into your hands literally yeah don't put me up yeah right yeah so i mean it's pretty special that we get that it is yeah i just flashed on we we again so yeah stop laughing you're welcome pg Well, you were in a limo rocking it supposedly with my dad, but he wasn't really in there.

1:06:46This is PG. And I come running up and we get into this fight. Remember, I think it was in Kansas City and we were in this like barn. Yeah. And there was hay and there was cow shit. And yeah. Of course, you shoved my face in some. I did. No, you put mine. Shit. No, I put yours. You put mine. Okay. Yeah. And this was one where you definitely came out on top because you careened my head off the hood of the car. no one ever taught me how to take that bump oh you took it you took it so i i because everything was always like don't fake it make it look real yeah stupid it was your first concussion really stupid not the first taking it for real doesn't actually look as good as no because it really fucks you up for a second too like i saw a bright white light but i did it to myself you know i hit my head so hard i'm so sorry i should have told you i was like oh god and then you grabbed me and You were getting me good.

1:07:39And I'm like, thank God she is. Just take me. I'm out of it right now. Trish, take the wheel. Oh, here we go. Here we go. Here we go. Oh, it's not. Well, that was a little thing. But that wasn't the one. See, it's a little. Honestly, I just love how we're like so. It's like. We have no idea what we're doing. Yeah. But it's right there. It's so raw. It doesn't even look that great. It looks like. See, and now I'm like trying to learn on the fly. But that's not like a working cell. It doesn't look as good, right? Because it's just thud. Yeah. It's just like, oh, it kind of stuns you. You're like, I'm really out of it right there.

1:08:11Oh my God, I can tell because you were so heavy. I was trying to move you. Why is there a limo in the barn? In the barn. Because they were hiding. That's where we pulled up. I just see the animals in the background. This is the way it was in kids. Oh, I was just wondering what's going on. I think that's what people loved about those. I forgot about the kids. Oh. Oh, yeah. Also, I'm sorry. Is that real? Maybe. you know yeah you know what we do for the show yeah yeah there was some i don't know if that was actually real that's a good question because then what would it have been what did we do well look at the music they're hanging out in the background oh god okay okay that is amazing unnecessary no this is what i was good at i'll take the shit take the shit yeah but you know this was payback because this is the slop bucket yeah i mean you haven't seen my slop bucket have you seen my slop bucket i'm sure she got slopped i got slopped you guys having a hard time yeah no but i mean i was like so so out of it so really you pour it on me i don't care so just be over please i wonder what it was i'm really sure I wonder what it was.

1:09:30Some sort of pudding, some kind of chocolate mixture. Yeah, it was concoctions. Richie Posner was our magic man at the time. I remember, yeah, like for my concoction when I got swapped. What a job. Yes. He was like, look, you could eat this. Like you want to be like. Okay, so I'll tell you an actual concoction story you just made me think of. God bless Gerald Briscoe. Okay. So I was pretty new. And I forget who it was was going to throw up. I think it might have been Booker was going to throw up for some reason. but so part of what was in the throw up was soup mix. I remember that specifically.

1:10:04Don't tell me what kind. I don't even, I'm not even sure. Like a cream of mushroom. So I didn't know that Briscoe had such a sensitive stomach and that it was like a rib to try to make him throw up all the time. And they used me as the pawn. So they had me put some of this stuff in my mouth. and when the talent started to throw up on camera then you know you saw Gerald start to like oh god and he because he'll throw up on the spot like he's really really sensitive stomach and so he started to go and then all of a sudden I started to pretend like I was really not well and he's such a sweetheart and he looks at me Stephanie are you okay and I'm like and then I went oh my goodness with all the soup mixed up all over the place and god bless Gerald he hurtled that table see i told you i'm i'm terrible at these microphones i get too excited he hurtled the table oh my god like cleared the stairs i've never seen anything like it but he was throwing up in the trash at the bottom of gorilla yeah he which and then i felt terrible because then i was like i am an awful person i made him throw up like that he's having convulsions over there like just trying to do his job and i really i really gave You did it like for the boys.

1:11:23Yeah, I thought I was big. And I was like, oh my God, I'm so horrible. It's like what the boys do. Girls don't do that kind of stuff. You know what I mean? Oh my gosh. Which is why it worked. I did. I was on, speaking of movies. I don't know, it wasn't now, but earlier. I was doing a Christmas movie and I - Plug it. Yeah. I mean, no, it's a Christmas movie. A Christmas movie. No, it's a Christmas movie. It's called Christmas in Rockwell. But there was a scene where I was walking away and then they were opening the door and I met with my, you know, the guy that was my love that I had to leave town for that now runs the local hardware store.

1:11:57Yes, naturally. Naturally. And you were back from the city, right? So the door opens and so, you know, and you're always like, you know, there's moments of silliness on set. And, but you also know like, if there's a time, like we got to get this shot in, it's getting dark. It was an outdoor thing. But I was like, this is worth it. I have to do this. So as the door opens, of course, I do the whole thing that we do. And it hits me in the face and I do like this. But the director literally apparently was just like in shambles because she was like oh my god like is her face gonna be okay like i've just ruined my star's face and like i should have had a stunt on this and it like turned into a like i was like oh i'm sorry no no i'm okay like i was like yeah i was like i was like backfiring like it was like funny at first like oh she's upset no no it's fine oh i just replaced me i'm good she was not happy yeah yeah she cut film and then it was like very expensive lost the tape the time went away the The sun went down, the shot had to be killed.

1:12:45Yeah, we had it all because of Trish. Just for the fun. Just for the pop. Yeah. What we do for the pop, though. What we do for the pop. We do. We do a lot. Yeah. It is so much fun. Yeah. Lucky lives. Well, Trish, what do you want to plug here? Because what's your next big adventure? No, I mean, really? Because what is your next big challenge, right? Like, what's on? This was a bucket list for you, right? And then this magazine shoot for FHM. Yeah. And you do it when you're 50. and you're hot as hell. So then, like, what's your next big challenge? Song and dance routine, you know. Right, it's going to be the Halloween special and the Trishmas special.

1:13:25Well, yes, yes. That's my next one. Corn on the cob without the hands. I'm going to start practicing today with the choreography. I don't know. Honestly, that's the thing is I don't usually know. And I usually go, I always feel like, I'm like, I kind of feel like I've done it all. I kind of, I feel fulfilled. Until something comes up. Until something comes up. Like, even like, Canada's Got Talent. I did that, and I never looked at that show and said, I want to do that. or like, but when I got, I was like, oh my God, that is. And at first I doubted myself because I do have imposter syndrome. I think we all do.

1:13:49Don't we all? Yes, I do. But it's always so surprising to me when other people do. No, really? Yeah. Thank you. No, I was like, why would I do it? And like, but it was interesting because I really, as I'm doing it, I would be like, oh my gosh, this is like for us, think of the moments where we walked out in the ring and you had this match. So you've designated 10 to 15, well, maybe two to three minutes, whatever for the women's match, let's be honest. Or okay, you have a promo. So you're 10 minutes of this entire show that is designated to you. You are responsible for this show. So that's like a heavy thing.

1:14:19And, you know, it's like it's live. And obviously it's just why we're so good at like on the spot. Right, right. We improv, whatever. But so this is the same thing. This person on stage, this is their one shot, right? This is their one shot to impress us, to like do what they do. They've practiced. They've worked everything for this one moment. And, you know, it was really hard, especially because we're Canadians. There's times where we do say no. and in the beginning, all of us are like, so I'm really sorry, but it's a no from me. And the producer had to come to us and go, guys, you don't have to say sorry before you say no.

1:14:47It's okay. This is a thing in the show. People get no's, but we're just so Canadian, you know? But it was, so I realized like saying no, it was like, it was hard because I thought, oh my God, I'm crushing someone's dreams. But then I had to realize like, this may not be the part of, end of your journey. It's part of your journey. So this no may then make you look at things a little differently or revisit. Give you perspective. Yeah, give you perspective. perspective so again i'm veering off on a different story but no but i love i love where you're bringing it to yeah you know and so that was a neat challenge that was it was neat to put myself into this different medium and then nail it um i was like an amazing i was an amazing judge have you ever not have you ever tried to do something and been like i'm gonna go for it and been like, shouldn't have done that one.

1:15:34You can say no. Well, how great is that? Yeah, I don't know. I just, so preparedness meets opportunity is my mantra. And like, it really is about like, I will, like when I tell you I hyper focus, I will stay ready. I will stay ready and I will prepare for it. I will make sure that I, you know, from, I mean, everything from even when I got the first, like I was going to do a fitness modeling shoot, I was looking at angles. I was, you know, practicing my poses. Like I was like, I'm going to nail it. I walked away with a cover and I walked away with a contract. Oh, so the cover wasn't necessarily a given.

1:16:03No, it was a shoot, just like my first ever professional, professional photo shoot that I was, you know, so I trained and ate, slipped and trained for it. It was my first time ever. And that turned into my cover. And then he contacted me as a muscle mag girl. And then I became, he put me on the cover, like, just like what we do at WW is all marketing. This is Trish Stratus. She's the newest and hottest fitness model. And then I was, but I had to also live up to it. Right. Right. We are given opportunities in life, but it's up to you. No, I mean, of course they say, you know, here's the ball if you can run with it.

1:16:27A lot of the times it is that, but you have to still deliver. But you also have to - Well, then you have to deliver even more. But you have to also make sure you prepare for those opportunities. Or some people go, man, she's so lucky. She's got these opportunities or she's got, you know, everything's given to her. But it's like a lot of times in life, I feel like there are opportunities out there. But if you're not honed in enough to see the opportunities and recognize that that is in fact an opportunity, then you'll miss it. You'll never know you had that in the first place. That's right. Right?

1:16:49So yeah, preparedness meets opportunity, kids. That's my message. I love that. I love that. And yoga. It's really important. And yoga. And my DVDs are available. No, I'm just kidding. So what would you say is the most important, this is a doozy of a question, but wherever it leads, it's funny. What's one of the most important lessons you want to teach your daughter in particular? Both your children, but - Yeah, right. I think what has driven me for the last 25 years is to make sure you love what you do. you know because um then you'll like even when there's shitty times or when it's tiring or it's you know there's or you will fail or things like that as long as you love what you're doing you're going to keep going you're going to push through um and like and you know just to be able to do what i'm passionate about for living is a very lucky thing but also it's what drives you and keeps you going right because you love it i mean we love the road the the things that we endured the sacrifices the i miss so many of my friends weddings and and babies being born and all that stuff, but I love what I did and I wouldn't change a thing, you know?

1:17:54So I think if you just love what you do, make sure and find what you do. You know, that's one thing about my kids. I always encourage them as like, you know, you'll find it, find what you would find your thing, you know, find your thing and it'll come to you. Uh, and don't panic if it doesn't, it might take longer. Um, but you know, if you can do what you love, it's, it's a good thing. Yeah. And preparedness meets opportunity and continue to challenge yourself in new and exciting ways and always have a growth mindset. Yeah. I mean, those are the things I've heard from you. And do yoga. And do yoga.
