Patty's Players Vol 5

Patty V • Aug 22, 2022

This weeks Patty’s Players piece is brought to you by teen hormones and nostalgia.

The year was 2002, and young Patty V was unquestionably hitting the most awkward years of his life. I can remember it like it was yesterday, I was fourteen years old, and had a crush on just about any beautiful woman I laid eyes on. Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Shakira, Christina Milian, Mya….and Trish freakin’ Stratus.

You may be thinking to yourself currently, “Patty, what on earth does this have to do with your weekly player’s column?” Well don’t you worry baby bird, the payoff is coming.

Without further ado, I would like to announce THIS weeks Player: Trish Stratus.

Now how on earth would a WWE Hall of Famer, who no longer even competes be relevant in 2022? How is she even in consideration for this weekly selection if she hasn’t done anything with the WWE in over a year?

I present exhibit A:

On Saturday, August 20th, Trish Stratus showed up at a WWE Live Event unexpectedly to confront Bailey and her new stable mates. While she was already advertised for the upcoming Monday Night Raw (tomorrow night, August 22nd), this showing was totally unexpected. Now, there was nothing extremely noteworthy about this appearance that would make her performance stand out, or be valued in the sense of being a weekly “Player”. However, the reasoning for my selection this week (other than it being a super slow time of year), is that Trish simply seems to have STOPPED aging.

I ask you this, how on earth, has Trish Stratus, now 46 years old, gotten MORE attractive!? Whatever those candians are eating needs to become a part of my daily routine, because HOT DAMN.

Leaving the oogling and ogling out of this, one can only HOPE to age as well as Trish has, and thus, she is this weeks selection for Patty’s Player of the week.
