04/07/00 Internet Rumors While taking short breaks on the WWF tour, Trish Stratus flies up to Canada and trains with her close friend, Ron Hutchinson. Ron, who has trained such WWF superstars as Val Venis, Edge, Christian, and more, is teaching Trish more than anything how to take bumps. If Trish enters the ladies division, she's come up with a leg submission that will cleverly be titled the "Stratus-Sphere." [Mikey G.] ----- Trish Stratus isn't quite in the WWF Dog House but she's not exactly in the good graces of the federation either. The federation is said to be less than thrilled with the reaction she's gotten lately and her mic skills out in front of the crowd as opposed to rehearsals, differ greatly. It's been revealed that the federation will be spending a great deal of time working with her on cutting promo's, she is being teamed with Pat Paterson who said to be one of the best in the industry as far as tutoring the art of cutting promos. Stratus is said to be suffering from stage fright, though she's worked wrestling crowds in Canada but none the size and energy of a World Wrestling Federation crowd. [JC McGhee] WebMaster Note: Well it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out this girl is really lame on the mic so far.
04/10/00 Monday Night Raw On SmackDown the week before, Buh Buh Ray Dudley attempted to put Trish Stratus through a table. Looking for revenge, an angry Trish ordered Test and Albert into the Dudley Boyz locker room on RAW. T&A did just that, and put quite a beating on Buh Buh Ray and D-Von. After the break, T&A was in tag team action, as the duo took on the Hardy Boyz. Test and Albert clearly had the size and power advantage, but Jeff and Matt used their quickness and finished off Albert with the Twist of Fate and the Swanton bomb. After the match, the Dudley's attacked T&A, and set up a table. But instead of playing a helpless victim, Trish gave Buh Buh Ray a seductive glance. Buh Buh stood in awe, which gave Albert enough time to recover, throw D-Von out of the way, but drive Buh Buh Ray through the table with a double-handed chokeslam. [wwf.com]
04/16/00 Sunday Night Heat Devon Dudley and Test met for a one-on-one match while Buh Buh, Albert and Trish stood at ringside.

Trish went over to check on T&A only to find herself yanked into the ring by her hair by both the Dudley's. As the Dudley's threatened the blonde beauty T&A hit the ring and mopped up the Dudley's.
04/17/00 Monday Night Raw During a tag team match between Al Snow/Steve Blackman and the Dudley Boyz, T&A came out to ringside and interfered in the match, complete with Trish laying a big liplock on Buh Buh to his amazement.
04/20/00 Thursday Smackdown The Godfather led Philly’s finest Ho's to ringside as he and partner D’Lo Brown took on T & A with Trish Stratus.

Godfather had Test in position for the Pimp Drop, but was hit by a misguided D’Lo flying forearm. Albert nailed Godfather with the sit-down powerbomb to earn the win for T & A. [wwf.com]
04/24/00 Monday Night Raw Backstage, Trish Stratus was wearing only her long coat and her bra and panties! She talked about her love of tables - long ones, short ones, but especially hard ones. Clearly, it was a thinly veiled attempt to taunt Buh Buh Ray Dudley. Later in the show, she was backstage again. This time, she was in even skimpier attire and was polishing a table. She said that if Buh Buh Ray "played his cards right" there would be a table for two set for him and her at Backlash. Later in the evening Edge and Christian took on the Dudley Boyz. As the match got underway, T&A came out, carrying a table with Trish Stratus lying on it! When Buh Buh Ray saw it, he couldn't concentrate on the match. As he was distracted, Edge speared D-Von, and the Tag Team Champions picked up the win. Meanwhile, Test picked up Trish and carried her back to the locker room. [wwf.com]
04/27/00 Thursday Smackdown T & A tuned up for their Backlash match against the Dudley Boyz with a bout against the Holly cousins. But the Dudley's had their eyes on Trish from backstage. Hardcore went to finish off Albert with a splash, but was overruled by an overzealous Crash, who subsequently missed his attempt. A flying elbow from Test finished off Crash, but things were far from over. The Dudley's attacked T & A with chairs and Buh Buh Ray dragged Trish to the ring. Buh Buh was poised to finally drive Trish through a table, but she escaped again by caressing Buh Buh into another trance! Albert then took Buh Buh for a ride and through the awaiting table. [wwf.com]
04/30/00 Backlash PPV You just knew this was going to be a slobberknocker even before anyone hit the ring - the Dudley Boyz facing off against T&A at a PPV. Just as the match got underway Buh Buh decided to chase Trish around the ring on the arena floor while Devon battled Albert. Test finished the chase by clotheslining Buh Buh before he could catch his prey. Definitely a rock-em, sock-em match, both teams managed to get near-pinfalls on one another several times. Test even managed to shake off a Dudley 3D Drop and get right back into the battle. Just as the Dudley's called for a second 3D Drop Trish hit the ring apron and distracted Buh Buh so that Test got a well placed kick into his head. Buh Buh went down like a ton of bricks and Test got the pinfall and the win. Buh Buh didn't stay down long as he attacked Test and grabbed Trish by the hair. Albert jumped into the ring and Trish scrambled for a corner when Buh Buh let go of her hair so that he and Devon could deliver the 3D Drop on Albert and put him out of commission. Just as it looked like Trish might escape the ring Buh Buh again grabbed her by the hair and directed Devon to get a table. Trish began struggling for all she was worth at this point until she decided to change tactics and try another approach instead. She gave Buh Buh a quick 'come on' smile and then gave him a passionate kiss. This might have worked except she decided to look at the audience and 'flip' her hair, indicating she had just put one over on Buh Buh. Not taking kindly to being made a fool of Buh Buh grabbed her by the hair again and dragged her to the corner as Devon finished setting up the table. Devon picked Trish up and helped get her on Buh Buh's shoulders and away he went, dropping her dead center on the table. Of course paramedics were rushed in and they set her in a neck brace and then left the arena putting her in an ambulance. For Pics - Click Here.
05/10/00 Internet Rumors Before "Backlash" aired, Trish told Buh Buh Ray Dudley, backstage, that she didn't want him to protect her during the power bomb she'd take later that evening. Trish, who has been training to take bumps like this for over two months now, finally got the chance to show off the fact that there's more to her than just, well, T & A. Her actions paid off, as after the bump, Vince McMahon himself pulled her aside to tell her that she did a great job. [Mikey G.] ----- Trish Stratus has been receiving heat backstage in the WWF. She is very full of herself (rightfully so), and thinks she deserves special treatment. When she was asked if she was willing to be put through a table by The Dudley Boys, she said that she wouldn't do it on free TV, hence the reason she wasn't put through a table until Backlash. [Anthony Schilero] ----- Just because the 'official' website of Trish Stratus posted that she would be appearing nude on RAW, doesn't mean that it's going to happen. And all reporters posted this "Huge news" on every friggin newsboard because it just came from her 'official site'. It seems that those 'reporters' didn't check all the facts before typing the whole thing up and submit their 'huge news' to every board. The trishstratus.com was taken by someone, and registered under the name of "STRATUS ENTERPRISES" from a company called "3D INC" and the billing contact goes to a guy called "DUDLI BOYS" from "LEEDS, UK" and hosted on "FREESERVERS". Now you think this would be the official site? It's simple, someone got his hand on the domain after the folks that were supposed to take care of the site just messed up. For now the site is located at http://209.250.137.84/ until the domain is put back on the new IP address. And it's funny to read all the excuses by these reporters for their messing up. [Collin Vassallo]

In the ring, the seething Buh Buh Ray and D-Von got it on with Test and Albert. Trish attempted to get involved in the action, but was grabbed by Buh Buh Ray. Albert attempted a save, but Buh Buh Ray moved out of the way and Albert's momentum knocked Trish off the apron and into the arms of Brisco. The Dudley's then hit 3-D on Albert and had the match won, or so it seemed. Shane pulled the referee out of the ring as he was about to make the three count. With the referee distracted, Test hit his flying elbow on Buh Buh Ray to get the win for T & A. [wwf.com]
05/22/00 Monday Night Raw The Hardyz teamed up to take on T and A. Despite their larger appearance, the team of Test and Albert did well keeping up with the fast and furious style of Matt and Jeff. In fact, the duo was so quick that their sneaky double-teaming proved to be enough for the Hardyz. Test and Albert won after a flying elbow smash by Test, despite Albert being the legal man. Unfortunately for the Hardyz, the assets of Trish Stratus were too distracting for the referee to notice the blatant bending of the rules. [wwf.com]

06/30/00 Internet Rumors Playboy has either recently offered Trish Stratus money, or is about to offer her money, to pose for their magazine. Trish Stratus has recently said that she might be up for it if the payoff was high enough. Not much else is known other than the fact that Trish said she would be up for it if they offered her a price she was comfortable with, but Playboy is very optimistic regarding her posing for them seeing how she is the WWF's top female at the moment, and especially after the last issue of Playboy that was advertised on WWF programming - the April, 1999 issue with Sable on the cover - worked out so well that it was the hottest selling issue in the past fifteen years. [George Epstein] ----- Trish Stratus, along with Kane will be on hand at the St. Thomas Dragway to sign autographs on July 1st from 2-4 PM! While visiting, see Jerry Tolliver and Jim Epler participate in the Can-Am nationals with the official Rock and Kane racing cars! [Liz Wilson] ----- The WWF is VERY impressed with Trish Stratus' recent effort in working matches and proceeding angles. They are also many people who are amazed at how a newcomer so inexperienced as Trish can take bumps so well and sell them equally as well. The WWF may incorporate Stratus into singles matches somewhere down the road, but for now they are perfectly content at what they're getting. [Ryan Sanders] ----- Monday night on WWF's Raw is War, Eddie Guerrero and Val Venis had an early match. Eddie's valet, Chyna and Venis' valet Trish Stratus, had some action of their own. When Stratus kicked Eddie when he was on the floor outside the ring, Chyna took notice of it and charged after her. After running sometime, Chyna caught up with Stratus in the middle of the ring. She then executed a powerbomb on Stratus causing Stratus to suffer mild head trauma. As Stratus' head bounced off the canvas, the match ended and they went to commercial. Trish got up after a little bit under her own strength and went to the back. Reports state she suffered a very slight concussion, but felt a little shaken up. This explains why she didn't come out during the Tag-Team battle royal where her other team of T&A was involved. No word is in as to if she will miss any action over the bump, but it's unlikely that any time will be missed over the head injury. [Matt Boone]

07/24/00 Monday Night Raw Backstage, Triple H arrived, and Stephanie brought him up to speed on all the events that led to Foley's booking of the "brother/sister" match. As if that didn't anger Triple H enough, there were several bouquets of flowers on the table, just as there had been at Fully Loaded. Stephanie told her husband to read the card, but Triple H said he didn't need to read any card to realize he was being set up, and he tossed the flowers against the walls in disgust. A shocked Stephanie said she had purchased the flowers for him! Stephanie didn't have much time to react, as the "brother/sister" match was up next. Lita came out as the first of the McMahon siblings' opponents. Shane grabbed the microphone and said he would protect his baby sister at all costs -- no matter who the other opponent was. It turned out to be the Big Show! The Show returned two months after Shane had put him out of action; Shane was completely astonished, and he sprinted back to the locker room. The Show chased after him, leaving Stephanie alone with Lita. Stephanie took quite a beating, and Lita had her set up for a moonsault.

07/27/00 Thursday Smackdown Back in their locker room, Triple H complained to Stephanie about having Trish as a partner, saying that none of the women in the Federation could wrestle. Stephanie snapped at him, saying that she had been around wrestling her whole life. Mrs. Game then barged out of the locker room as Triple H tried to apologize. Later on backstage, Trish asked Triple H to teach her some wrestling moves. As he was showing her the proper way to counter a hammerlock, Stephanie entered the dressing room to find her husband and Trish in a compromising position! Unaware that the Game was simply giving a wrestling lesson, Stephanie went ballistic and again barged out of the dressing room. Triple H blamed Trish for the trouble, and then grabbed his things and left the arena. “To hell with Foley, to hell with the match, and to hell with my wife,” said Triple H to the Road Dogg as he got into his limo and rode away. Trish Stratus entered Mick Foley’s makeshift office in the back and tried to use her womanly charms to get the night off, since Triple H had left the arena. At first it seemed like Foley would go for it, but Mick then snapped at Trish, telling her that if she didn’t get in the ring, he would sue her for sexual harassment! Mick then assigned her a new tag team partner – Chris Benoit! The match-up pitting Y2J & Lita against Benoit & Trish was a fast-paced, high-flying affair, with Lita taking to the skies on more than one occasion. In the end, Jericho pinned Benoit after a Lionsault. [wwf.com]

The Commish also said that the Game's new partner would be Trish Stratus! As Triple H readied for his match, someone knocked at his door. Hoping it was Steph, he ran and flung the door open, only to find Trish, asking to be shown some more moves. Hunter just looked at her and told her to get out! In the main event, Triple H and Trish went up against The Rock and Lita. Triple H was obviously not happy about his paring with Trish, and he refused to even look her way initially. But after getting beaten by The Rock, the Game had no problem tagging Trish in. The Rock, not being one to fight a woman, immediately tagged in Lita, who nearly got the pin, until Triple H ran over and clotheslined her! Lita then took down Triple H and then tagged in the Brahma Bull. Triple H got to his feet and started beating The Rock, almost pinning him several times. The Rock kept coming back, and nearly pinned Hunter, had it not been for Trish's interference. Then, The Rock Rock Bottomed Trish and tagged in Lita, who got the pin. After the match, Rock nailed Hunter with a steel chair, knocking him into a very interesting position on top of Trish! The Rock was having the last laugh as RAW went off the air! [wwf.com]
08/03/00 Thursday Smackdown As Triple H waited for his wife to arrive at the Birmingham Civic Center, Trish Stratus approached him and apologized for what happened Monday. The Game snapped at Trish, saying it was all her fault and that she was bad news. He then told Trish to get away from him. Stephanie arrived at the arena, throwing a cold shoulder towards her husband. She told him to back off, saying she needed some space. As she walked away, Kurt Angle approached her and said that he’d be there for her if she needed a friend. Stephanie thanked him, and then asked where Trish’s locker room was. Stephanie barged into Trish’s locker room, and Mrs. Game was on a rampage. She lambasted the lovely Trish, saying that if Trish came near Triple H again, she would take her apart. As Stephanie exited, Test exclaimed, “Thank God I didn’t marry that woman!” [wwf.com]
08/10/00 Thursday Smackdown As Chyna was getting made up backstage, Trish Stratus walked by and made a snide comment. Chyna took exception to it, and Val Venis attacked her! Eddie Guerrero soon joined the fisticuffs to save his “Mamacita!” Eddie and Val wouldn’t have to wait long to get their hands on each other again, as Eddie and Chris Jericho battled Val and Chris Benoit next. Eddie would score with a frog splash onto Val, but Benoit was the legal man, so the ref refused to count the pinfall. With Eddie confused, Benoit hit the diving headbutt from the top rope and pinned Eddie for the win. After the match, Jericho went nuts, locking Benoit in the Walls of Jericho until Shane McMahon came down to save the Wolverine. [wwf.com]
08/11/00 Internet Rumors There is some talk being given to a 3-way women's title match at SummerSlam, with Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley defending against Lita and Trish Stratus. [Brandon Newman] ----- The Lita/ Trish/ Stephanie feud did not advance mainly because of concentration on other angles. Look for Lita to issue a challenge to Trish Stratus on Raw is War next week, or possibly on Smackdown. Trish and Lita have been rumored to go at it on August 27th, at SummerSlam. [Jason Hamill]
08/17/00 Thursday Smackdown Val Venis defended his Intercontinental Championship against Eddie Guerrero. During the match, Chyna got involved, as Mamacita powerbombed Eddie onto the floor from the ring apron! Trish soon took Chyna out of the match, however, as she broke a glass water pitcher over Chyna’s head! As Eddie watched, Val rolled him up to retain his title! Later with her head still hurting from the glass pitcher, Chyna barged into Mick Foley’s office and demanded a match with Trish! Foley refused, saying Chyna would tear Stratus apart. But Foley did make a mixed tag-team match for SummerSlam, pitting Eddie and Chyna against Trish and Val Venis! [wwf.com]
08/21/00 Monday Night Raw In mixed Tag action, Val Venis and Trish Stratus faced Crash and Ivory, as Chyna and Eddie Guerrero watched from the back. The match was tough, and Trish pinned Ivory after Val powerbombed Ivory. As Trish and Val celebrated, Chyna ran out and nearly pedigreed Trish! But Val made the save, nailing Chyna!

But, Foley had cooler heads prevail and made the mixed Tag match at SummerSlam an Intercontinental match as well! If either Chyna or Eddie pin Trish or Val, that person will be the Intercontinental Champion! [wwf.com]
08/27/00 SummerSlam PPV - Inter-Gender Intercontinental Title Match It appeared that Val would be at a distinct disadvantage in this inter-gender match. Before the match, in the locker room, Trish seemed to be more worried about whether she was a bigger sex symbol than Chyna, than the battle she would be facing against the Ninth Wonder. The stipulations stated that if Guerrero or Chyna pinned either Val or Trish, the Intercontinental Title would change hands and go to the wrestler that scored the pinfall. Eddie and Val started the match with neither having an upper hand over the other, until Chyna came in and delivered a clothesline to Val. After kissing Mamacita's hand, Latino Heat double teamed Val for a few seconds, before Eddie left the ring and Chyna went for an unsuccessful pinfall. Chyna followed up with several well placed kicks to her opponent until Val countered with a knee to the Ninth Wonder, followed by a suplex that Chyna was able to slip out of. Chyna went on the offensive again only to be stopped by another knee to the mid-section by the Intercontinental champion. Chyna quickly recovered with another devastating clothesline to Val and was aiming for another pinfall when Trish entered the ring and Chyna chased after her. Val immediately attacked her from behind and delivered a belly-to-back suplex as Eddie was getting run out of the ring by the ref. Val whipped Chyna into the corner and pummeled her with hard knee shots to the stomach and then placed her into a deadly suplex, slamming the Amazon to the mat. Val fell quickly on his opponent for a pin but Eddie hustled into the ring for a save. Val picked Chyna up and body slammed her once again to the mat and then made a fatal mistake. Thinking that the prone Chyna was out of action Val missed with a flying leap from the ropes. Chyna slowly crawled towards Eddie as Trish warned Val that his quarry was escaping. Just as Chyna was almost within reach of her partner Val grabbed her and pulled her back into the middle of the ring, but not before spitting on an exasperated Eddie Guerrero. A pissed off Eddie tried to enter the ring which took the referee's attention away from the match and allowed Chyna to deliver her know infamous 'low blow'. Chyna tried for a pedigree but Val still had enough in him to escape the maneuver. Both wrestlers took a running start at one another, but Chyna was the quicker of the two and she was able to put a DDT on Val. At this point she tagged in the second half of Latino Heat for what looked like the finish of the Intercontinental Champ. Eddie immediately went on a full blown offensive, pummeling the Champ and even using a hurricanrana before trying for the pin but Val found the strength to kick out. Eddie continued the assault to Val but was stopped when Val was able to throw him face first into a turnbuckle. As both men lay spent in the middle of the ring their partners begged them to get up and make the tag. Val was able to get to Trish before Eddie could even pick himself up and Trish surprisingly was able to try for a pin, although Eddie kicked out easily. While Eddie struggled to get to his corner Trish viciously kicked him several times. Unfortunately for the blonde bombshell Eddie grabbed a leg and sent her to the mat. Eddie thought about going for the pin but decided to tag Mamacita in instead. Just as Trish started to pick herself up off the mat Chyna delivered a clothesline that knocked Trish off her feet and onto her back. Chyna taunted Trish to get up and as soon as the sexy lady did Chyna knocked her down again with another clothesline. Chyna picked Trish off the mat and body slammed her back down. This time Mamacita pulled Trish up by the hair, grabbed her, and tossed her into the corner like a rag doll. Just as Chyna went to take a running start at her demolished opponent Val was able to grab her hair and throw her to the mat. With both women trying to make a recovery Eddie and Val began a battle in the ring with Eddie becoming the loser as Val managed to throw him over the top rope to the arena floor. Val grabbed Chyna by the hair and pulled her over to his partner so that the teammates could whip Chyna into the ropes. Trish and Val rushed towards Chyna who ducked and as they came rebounding from the ropes to try and deliver a double clothesline Eddie grabbed Val by the foot, leaving Trish single handedly striking Chyna. The only effect the blow had on the Ninth Wonder was to knock Trish off her own feet. Eddie took Val out of the rest of the action by throwing him into the steel stairs while Chyna got ready to finish off her opponent. Chyna picked Trish up and held her above her head for several seconds before finishing her off with a body slam that made the whole ring vibrate. With no resistance left in Trish Chyna got the pin easily a won the Intercontinental Title for the second time in her career. As a jubilant Latino Heat celebrated, Val began screaming and hollering at Trish for costing him the match and the belt. For Pics - Click Here.

Chyna said that she kind of felt bad for Hunter, but Eddie told her instead to focus on her Intercontinental Title match with Val Venis that night. Oddly, Trish Stratus did not accompany Val to ringside for his return Intercontinental match-up with Chyna. Even stranger, Trish came to the stage during the match and just watched on. Mamacita was clearly on fire, nailing Val with an array of maneuvers. With Eddie Guerrero distracting the referee, Chyna locked on the "testicular claw" on Val! But Val recovered, and went for the Money Shot. Trish soon walked towards the ring, and Val got down from the top rope and told Trish to go back to the dressing room. Chyna then rolled up Val for the 1-2-3! [wwf.com]

He said that he was sick of Trish, and that he was done with her. Trish said that Val would be sorry. [wwf.com]
08/31/00 Internet News Trish Stratus recently sat down with SLAM! Wrestling and had many things to say. Below are some quotes from the report. "I think what they (the WWF) do is they sort of take the individual's personality and find out what they're about, which is really good," she says. "(WWF chairman) Vince (McMahon) does that, he'll speak with you, and the writers will talk to you and get to know you and see what characteristics you have. And then they just sort of blow them up to larger proportions." "Not that I'm sort of a bitch and they made me a big bitch out there. I think I play that role pretty well. I can play it in a little cocky, sarcastic manner which is what I am, or what I tend to be, and sort of amplify it a lot out there." "My goal is to go out there and entertain, and I always try and present the best possible package. Everything I do, I've always tried to take it to the fullest extent. So I think for me to just go out there and stand and be pretty is not enough for me. I need to be challenged." "I think a lot of people realized at that point, 'Oh, she's willing to physically go through what we all go through and she can do that,' it was an interesting experience." "It's the continuous thing that's really tough. There's no off-season, and there's also the challenge of going out there every week to do better than last week." "Basically, everything just unfolded very nicely. I started training, spoke to the right people at the WWF, and they contacted me, flew me to their head offices in Connecticut -- this was the end of last year -- and offered me a multiyear contract, just like that. It was really awesome." "I'm naturally athletic. I've played sports all my life. So to go out there and be athletic and to do it professionally and also entertain millions of people every week is quite a combination and it's amazing for me. I wouldn't have it any other way." "I love it. It's very challenging, but it's a top-notch industry, and not everyone can be in it." [WrestlingDotCom.com, Slam! Wrestling]

09/22/00 Internet Rumor There has been much commotion about rumors that have been circulating the internet in regards to The Dynamite Kid appearing at a WWF Pay-Per-View in England.

The partnership between T&A and Kane was rocky, to put it mildly, as the trio took on Too Cool and Rikishi, accompanied by Mandy and Victoria. Neither Test nor Albert would tag in their 7-foot partner. Scotty 2 Hotty soon hit the Worm on Albert, who finally tagged Kane into the match. But the Big Red Machine – irate over how he was treated by his partners – chokeslammed Test and left! Rikishi then hit the Rumpshaker on Test for the win, and after the match, he danced with Too Cool and the ladies! [wwf.com]

10/15/00 Sunday Night Heat In the APA office, Test and Albert played cards with the Acolytes. Albert had bet all of T&A's money, and they couldn't pay their debts. Just before Faarooq and Bradshaw could kick T&A out of their office, Trish walked in, which gave Test an idea as to how they could work a deal out with the Acolytes!

That did nothing but fire up the Women’s Champion, who took it right to Stratus! But the match wouldn’t last long, as Trish’s team of T&A interfered in the match-up. Test and Albert helped Trish to pound on Lita, until the Acolytes ran down to save the redheaded diva! [wwf.com]
10/20/00 Internet Rumors There is a weak rumor circulating that states that Trish Stratus will somehow be stripped this Sunday, at No Mercy. Hold on, before you get too happy, if this does occur, I can guarantee that either Test or Albert (who have proved that they are protective of Trish), or the RTC would censor this event. [Jason Hamill] ----- Before reports get out of hand, don't believe the rumors of Trish being nude on pay-per-view this Sunday. The current rating for the show is "TV-14: D,L,V." It doesn't have the special "N" with the rating for nudity. When The Kat was topless at last year's Armageddon pay-per-view, it had the "N" letter with the rating beforehand. If the "N" shows up on the rating on the commercials before Sunday, then you will know it may happen. Until then, this is just another rumor taken way out of context.. [Eric Loy]

Test then asked Albert where Trish was, and Albert said he had gotten an answering machine message from her, saying she was home for the holidays. Test then suggested that maybe she meant Vince McMahon's home. T&A took on Too Cool in tag-team action. Too Cool had the match won after Grand Master Sexay hit the Hip Hop Drop on Albert. But with the official distracted, Test hit a top-rope elbow on Sexay, allowing Albert to get the pinfall. But after the match, Albert turned on his partner, brutally attacking Test, as Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley watched on and smiled! As Albert left, he screamed that he didn't need Test anymore! [wwf.com] WebMaster's Note: Well... With Trish apparently dating Vince and this fallout between Test and Albert, I would venture to say that T&A is officially finished. Personally I always thought that Test was a good single's wrestler and that he had more talent than he was getting credit for.
