#4 Trish once met Owen Hart, way before her debut

Owen Hart is widely regarded as one of the best wrestlers WWE had in the 90s. His match against Bret Hart at WrestleMania 10 is a strong contender for being the greatest WrestleMania opener of all time.

A rare image from the 90s emerged years ago on the web, showing Trish Stratus hanging out with the late, great Owen Hart. There's little information on the photo, as to when it was taken, and how well did the two know each other, but it's certainly a cool piece of wrestling history, featuring two of the all-time greats and masters of their craft.

Unfortunately, Trish would never get the chance to work with Owen, as he died in a tragic accident at Over The Edge 1999. Around 6 months after the incident, Trish made her WWE debut. She went on to work alongside fellow Canadian greats like Edge, Christian, and Chris Jericho.

Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
