It’s a new path. Wrestlers are in a weird place when it comes to celebrity status. While they are often on national television, they are often only known for being wrestlers. That often limits what kind of star power they can have, though every now and then you see someone move a few steps beyond. Now we are going to see a wrestling legend moving into a new field.

WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus has announced that she will be a guest judge on the upcoming reboot of Canada’s Got Talent. The series will premiere in early 2022 after being off the air since 2012. Stratus will be one of the four judges, along with Howie Mandel, Kardinal Offishall and Lilly Singh. Stratus retired from WWE in 2006 but has returned for some short term appearances in the years since.

Stratus certainly had talent. Check out what she did in her WWE career:

FULL MATCH - Charlotte Flair vs. Trish Stratus: SummerSlam 2019

FULL MATCH — Trish Stratus vs. Victoria - Women's Championship Match: WWE No Mercy 2002

FULL MATCH - Lita vs. Trish Stratus – WWE Women's Title Match: WWE Unforgiven 2006

Opinion: This is always cool to see as you don’t have many wrestlers getting a role like this very often. Stratus is a star in wrestling and it is great that she is getting to do something else as a result. She is still a celebrity that a lot of people are going to remember and it certainly seems that she is getting a chance to do something special as a result. Good for Stratus, because this is something a lot of people don’t get to do.

What do you think of Stratus’ career? Will she ever wrestle again? Let us know in the comments below.
