Despite only being a manager Trish wasn't spared taking bumps for too long. This was the Attitude Era after all, and one thing that the Attitude Era loved was unnecessary man-on-woman violence, especially where tables were involved. Trish Stratus' first experience of this, and her first big bump on WWF TV, came at the hands of Bubba Ray Dudley and D-Von Dudley.

Her team of Test and Albert had just defeated the Dudleyz, thanks in no small part to the distraction techniques of Trish. Stratus decided to gloat a little too much after the match however, and she finally felt the wrath of those damn Dudleyz.

In what was something of a team signature at the time, the Dudleyz proceeded to powerbomb poor Trish through a table. It was her first big bump as an on-screen talent, and what a way to start.
