Trish Stratus is not only one of the most prominent women in WWE history, but she is also one of the most loved women in the company. Recognized for her looks, her charm, and her in-ring ability, the seven-time Women’s Champion was memorable and made an impact beyond the matches.
In the time since her retirement, we have seen many members of the WWE family sign up and admit (often in hilarious ways!) that they have had a crush on Trish. From childhood stories to social media interactions, these confessions have shown us just how much the WWE Hall of Famer has inspired their colleagues.
Matt Sydal
Matt Sydal, who some know as Evan Bourne from his time in WWE, once shared a fun thought about Trish Stratus. This was before he was in AEW. Back in 2014, he went on social media and called Trish a sweetie in a tweet.
Even though it was short, the post showed how much Trish influenced wrestlers. It wasn’t just her wrestling skills, but also her charm and confidence that people liked. Lots of fans agreed with Sydal’s tweet.
It was just one of those cool moments when a wrestler showed some love for another legend. It goes to show you that even wrestlers can be fans of Trish!
Otis Got in Trouble Over His Crush on Trish Stratus
The fun-loving WWE heavyweight Otis brought up a funny kids’ story with the topic of his infatuation with Trish Stratus.
While she was performing live, little Otis, who was so excited he lost his head, attempted to give her a high five. Unfortunately, the mishap went a bit off track. He said that due to a misunderstanding between security and his fervor for a security risk, they subdued him right away.
Jimmy Uso Revealed His First Crush Was Trish Stratus
Jimmy Uso has opened up in a recent episode of What’s Your Story? with Stephanie McMahon, where he revealed that Trish Stratus was actually his first celebrity crush.
Jimmy later shared that his mom let him only have one poster up in his room, which was of Trish. His wife, Naomi, was laughing as she told Jimmy “half the male population” probably had the same first crush on Trish.
Even after all these years, Trish Stratus is still a fan favorite in wrestling. She’s had a big impact on the sport, inspiring both the women wrestlers of today and the guys who looked up to her when they were kids.
