Lita has come a long way since her loss to Becky Lynch last year
Lita kicked off a feud with Becky Lynch in early 2022. The two female stars battled in a RAW Women's title match at Elimination Chamber 2022 in Saudi Arabia.
When all was said and done, it was Lynch who came out victorious. Here's what Lita wrote on Instagram after the loss:
“What an experience. It’s hard to put into words everything I’ve felt these past few weeks. But I can say the support I’ve received from all of you has touched me deeply. I thank you so much for the time you took to cheer me on, and the faith you had in me to get back in the ring. To the women currently grinding on the road to keep raising the bar, you inspire me daily. If this was the end, I am so proud. If it is not, I will arrive more prepared, train harder, and find a way to dig deeper.”
It remains to be seen what's next for the brand-new WWE Women's Tag Team Champions after last night's massive victory. With WrestleMania 39 almost on the horizon, it seems likely that they will defend the titles at The Show of Shows.
What are your thoughts on last night's events? Were you happy with the title change?
