Trish Stratus' on-screen relationship with Jeff Hardy had the potential to be one of the most intriguing storylines in WWE history, considering their legendary status. While both are known for their remarkable work in and out of the ring, their romance angle was brief, and their pairing was limited to the screen.Stratus and Hardy's romantic relationship was teased by the company in 2001. Still, nothing significant came of it, except a few backstage moments, including the Canadian star kissing Jeff after his loss to The Big Show. The creative revisited the angle in 2003 after Jeff saved the Hall of Famer from Victoria and Steven Richards on RAW, even kissing Stratus in the process. The storyline was eventually scrapped, and the former champions never dated in real life.The Hall of Famer was already in a long-term relationship with her high school sweetheart Ron Fisico. After more than a decade of dating, Ron and Trish Stratus married in 2006 and now have two children. Meanwhile, Jeff has been married to Beth Britt since 2011. They also have two children together. The Canadian star returned to the company earlier this year and is currently feuding with Becky Lynch and Lita. Meanwhile, Jeff, too, returned to AEW after a lengthy hiatus.Old School Jason (OSJ)@Shoryuken91Trish Stratus & Jeff Hardy def Victoria & Steven Richards in mixed tag team action.

Hence, WWE might have expected the duo to succeed on television when they were first paired.On his Something to Wrestle podcast, Bruce Prichard mentioned that Jeff felt uncomfortable with the on-screen pairing, while Trish Stratus was open to the idea. Vince McMahon eventually scrapped the storyline as he believed the duo lacked chemistry. Prichard said:"Jeff was uncomfortable with it. Trish was always game, man. She always had ideas and she would listen, and she would try pretty much anything. There wasn't a whole lot of chemistry there, and Vince looked at it and was like, 'Not feeling it, next, move on.' Nobody was going to buy that because there wasn’t any chemistry. He [Vince] didn't feel it."Dave Trainor@Dave_The_Rave91Lita and Jeff Hardy had a reunion Trish Stratus taking the role of Matt Hardy #TeamXtreme194Lita and Jeff Hardy had a reunion ❤ Trish Stratus taking the role of Matt Hardy #TeamXtreme https://t.co/17ONlGK7wGDespite their failed on-screen pairing, both stars have achieved a lot in their WWE careers, winning multiple titles.
