WWE Hall of Famer Lita recently had an epic match against WWE Women’s Champion Becky Lynch at Elimination Chamber premium live event in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Though she couldn’t dethrone ‘Big Time Becks’ but she certainly won million hearts with her performance that night. She joined in as a guest on the latest episode of WWE After the Bell with Corey Graves and she recalled her bout against Lynch. However, a regret remains for her.
Lita wishes she had more time to prepare
The former Women’s Champion continued to speak about what’s next for her career following her match with Becky Lynch and why she’ll continue to train, knowing WWE could call her at any time. She revealed that she wished she had a bit more time to prepare for the match:
‘I do want to continue to train, not actively for a championship but knowing that the way WWE works, you get those opportunities a lot of times without notice,’ Lita said. ‘One thing I wish I had was a little bit more time to prepare. If I’m closer to being ready, my body already feels good and if there’s an opportunity to seize that fifth title run, I’m ready.’
She also talked about reclaiming that passion for the business and shared that her experience in the Royal Rumble gave her a new outlook on the current women’s roster:
‘It more so had to do with being in the Rumble and there are women that I touched in there so briefly,’ Lita mentioned. ‘And I was like oh, they’re really strong or they’re really good, seeing them from inside the ringwork versus from television. Just seeing how deep and talented the roster is there are just so many possibilities of great matchups that I would enjoy and the fans would enjoy.
She added:
‘I wouldn’t say it’s Pandora’s box, like let me in there, anyone, anytime, let’s do this. We could think about this and there could be some fun matchups that could just lead to these cool cross-generational experiences, not only for the women in the locker room but for the fans too.’
