Lita is back on WWE Raw for the time being as we head into Wrestlemania 38. There will be one final stop before that in the form of Elimination Chamber where the trailblazer for the female performers in the wrestling world will be gunning for her fifth title.
After paving paths the way for future generations of female pro wrestlers, Lita is now set for a dream match for WWE RAW Women’s Championship against the champion Becky Lynch in a one-on-one capacity at the upcoming Saudi Arabia PPV event. The fact is that this will be her first singles encounter with WWE since Survivor Series 2006. In between, she’s performed in several tag team or battle royal matches in one-off capacities.
WWE Has No Plans For Lita After Elimination Chamber 2022
Lita recently had a sit-down with Ring the Belle to talk about a range of topics before her Elimination Chamber battle with Big Time Becks. Via her comments, it was clarified that she found out at the very last minute that she was going to face the top WWE Raw Superstar in just a matter of days when she was asked about it.

Lita shares her experience from WWE Raw return
During the post-Royal Rumble edition of WWE Raw, she made a surprise appearance to lay down a challenge to Becky to set up the upcoming encounter. It was a last-minute set up and she didn’t even have the proper outfit to show up on live TV. So, the Hall of Famer had to visit another pioneer in Renee Young who lives in that area.
“Renee Young [Paquette] lives in Cincinnati. These [clothes from WWE Raw after Royal Rumble] are her clothes because that is how little time I had to prepare. They were like, ‘can you come?’ After St. Louis, I was supposed to go home.
And on Sunday, I drove to Cincinnati and swung by Renee’s house. And I’m like, ‘girl what can I wear?’ Johnny Ace asked me. He’s like, ‘do you want to fight Becky?’ I’m like, ‘wait what? Like you know that I do. You know that she does.’ And he’s like, ‘how about in like two weeks?’”
The host also asked Lita about what makes the battle versus the current WWE Raw Women’s Champion, so unique and she moved forward by saying that it’s a generational clash because she sees herself in Lynch. Lita said she was opposed to WWE’s frequent visit to Saudi Arabia at first since no women were allowed on the programs. But now the ethics have changed as the Saudi authority is allowing them to break the barriers.
