She's performed as a heel (one of the bad guys) and a hero (one of the good guys). In his heyday, Hulk Hogan offered Hulkamania; Stratus provides Stratusfaction. Like more than a few entertainers before her, including Judy Garland and Frank Sinatra, Stratus retired more than once. The first time was in 2006. She was newly married; they wanted to start a family, according to Fox Sports. Sometimes it's just hard to stay away from visiting the gang back at the old job. She returned to the wide, wide world of wrestling in 2011, though as a trainer. In 2018 she was in the ring again, twice. Stratus took on Charlotte Flair in 2019 and, after losing that match, announced yet another retirement.
Stratus has also parlayed her ring career into other ventures — she's hosted a TV travel show, done some acting, and opened an "eco-friendly" yoga studio, Stratusphere, back home in Toronto in 2009. And that family? A son, born in 2013, and a daughter, born in 2017. As any parent can tell you, that's the real championship, right there.
