10 Things WWE Wants You To Forget About Trish Stratus

9. She Was Better As A Heel Because She Was So Easy To Dislike

When WWE likes to paint a picture of Trish Stratus, they like to do so by portraying her as the nicest diva ever as if she was never a bad girl. While she may be really nice, she was a heel for a few different parts in her WWE career and she proved to be very good at it too. She actually started out as a heel that was managing Test & Albert in early 2000 and then by early 2001 she had advanced to the point that she became the on screen girlfriend of her boss, Vince McMahon. It was a huge role for her, but she was great at it. By that summer she had turned face and was in that role for about three years before going back to the dark side at WrestleMania 20. It was one of her best career moves ever as she turned on Chris Jericho to join Christian as a heel at WM20. The move surprised a lot of people, but it was the right thing for her. For the next year she was one of the most entertaining people on the show. About a year after the turn, she got hurt, missed a few months and went on for another year as a babyface before calling it a career. Everything about her heel work seemed better. She was more confident on the microphone, her acting was better and she was convincing as a shady heel too. She even dressed sexier too. Remember the white dress she wore during the Kane/Lita wedding? Incredible. Most of her career was spent as a babyface because WWE needed her more in that role, so that's what she was for the majority of her career.
