Amy Dumas, better known as Lita to the WWE fans, is a passionate animal rights advocate. She founded the animal charity Amy Dumas Operation Rescue and Education (A.D.O.R.E.) in 2003. It does not take a giant leap of reasoning as to why Lita adopted a vegan lifestyle, revealing the choice during an interview in 2014 and remaining a vegan to this day.

Talking to Whatculture.com, she revealed:

"Another big lifestyle change is transitioning back to vegetarianism and now vegan. I was vegetarian since I was 14, and then I wasn't when I was on the road wrestling. It was just hard for me to find healthy choices, especially at that time when I couldn't punch whatever I wanted into my phone, and my phone would just take me there. So when I retired, I transitioned back."

Lita was one of the pioneering members of the women's revolution in WWE and was involved in the first three Monday Night RAW main events featuring women. In addition, she also faced Victoria in the first-ever women's steel cage match in November, 2003. Making her debut in 1999, Lita left quite an impression on the WWE universe, leaving the company as a four-time WWE Women's Champion.

Lita was also associated with the Hardy Boyz as a part of Team Xtreme, while her feuds with real-life best friend Trish Stratus have produced some of the best matches in women's wrestling. She was officially inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2014 and remains a dedicated animal rights activist to this day.
