T & A T & A ( Test and Albert ) was a professional wrestling tag team in the World Wrestling Federation . T & A had Trish Stratus as their team manager with their name being a pun on the initials of the two wrestlers and the slang expression " T & A " ( referring to Tits and Ass ) , spawning numerous coarse jokes on fan ' s signs and from commentator Jerry Lawler in reference to the buxom Trish Stratus . History . Test and Albert met in Dory Funk , Jr . ' s training center , the Funkin ' Conservatory , where they were trained . Following this , both men took on individual careers in the business leading them to the WWF , where they were repackaged as a tag team during 2000 . On the March 19 , 2000 episode of " Sunday Night Heat " Stratus made her debut with the gimmick of scouting wrestlers to form a team . Shortly after this Test and Albert ( who both wrestled on that show ) became her wards . Their first match as a team was on the March 30 episode of " SmackDown ! " , when they lost to the Hardy Boyz . Their first pay - per - view match was at WrestleMania 2000 , when they defeated Steve Blackman and Al Snow . They competed against established teams in the WWF ' s tag team division , including Road Dogg and X - Pac , The Godfather and D ' Lo Brown , and The Holly Cousins , before beginning a feud with the Dudley Boyz . In a match against the Dudley Boyz at the Backlash 2000 pay - per - view Stratus was the recipient of a powerbomb through a table from Bubba Ray Dudley , although T & A won the match . They continued competing against teams including the Hardy Boyz and the Dudley Boyz for the next few months , and on June 25 , they competed for the WWF Tag Team Championship in a four - way elimination match at King of the Ring , but were the first team eliminated after Matt Hardy pinned Test . Test , Albert and Stratus began a feud with the Hardy Boyz , Matt and Jeff , and their manager Lita , which led to a six - person intergender tag team match at Fully Loaded , which T & A lost when Lita pinned Stratus . During a feud with the Acolytes Protection Agency ( APA ) , the two men parodied the team under the name T & APA ( Test & Albert Protection Agency ) . As part of this feud , all three members of T & A were supposed to face Bradshaw and Farooq of the APA and Lita in a six - person tag team match on October 22 , at the No Mercy pay - per - view , but T & A attacked the APA backstage , so the match never started . They then attacked Lita at ringside until the Hardy Boyz saved her . A feud with The Holly Cousins ( Hardcore , Crash and Molly ) followed , and at Survivor Series , the Holly Cousins , with Steve Blackman replacing Hardcore , defeated T & A in a six - person match when Molly pinned Stratus . In December 2000 , Albert turned on Test , causing storyline internal injuries which resulted in bleeding from Test ' s mouth . Trish continued to manage Albert for a while , but eventually began a storyline involving Vince McMahon and eventually broke out as a wrestler on her own . Albert went on to join X - Pac and Justin Credible in their own stable , X - Factor . Test went on to feud with Eddie Guerrero over the European title before eventually joining The Alliance .
