Trish Stratus is one of the most famous female stars in WWE history. The veteran star is known for several memorable storyline moments, and one early WWE segment put her in hot water.

This happened on the July 27, 2000, episode of SmackDown, when Commissioner Mick Foley and Trish Stratus were involved in a backstage segment. During the show, it was announced that Trish and Triple H would compete in a mixed tag team match against Lita and Chris Jericho.

Following this, The Game and Stephanie McMahon were frustrated with the booking, and the King of Kings had no interest in teaming with Trish. As a result, he left the arena, leaving Stratus without a partner.

The legendary female star confronted Mick Foley backstage and wanted her mixed tag team match to be canceled. She started flirting with the Commissioner, but the move backfired.

Foley assigned Chris Benoit as her substitute partner and claimed that Stratus was forcing her se*uality on him, calling it harassment. Mick also said that he would sue Trish Stratus for se*ual harassment if she didn't wrestle in the tag team match.

This segment became one of Stratus' notable early WWE storyline moments, as her character's attempt to get out of the match backfired.

In a March 2026 interview with Sports Illustrated, Trish Stratus discussed a possible WWE comeback. The veteran star said that she is ready to make a WWE comeback, but only if it makes sense from a storyline perspective.

Stratus said that the WWE landscape would need to make sense before she steps into the squared circle again.

Still, it will be interesting to see how the storyline unfolds and whether Trish steps back into in-ring competition.
