WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus offered much praise to her best friend Lita as the latter put up a valiant effort against Becky Lynch at the Elimination Chamber.
Lita and Becky Lynch faced off for the RAW Women's Championship at the premium live event that took place in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Lita came close to winning the title as she landed a Moonsault and a Twist of Fate on Lynch during the closing stages of the match. Becky kicked out of the pin and countered with The Manhandle Slam to earn the victory.
The 7-time women's champion appeared on WWE's The Bump this week and stated that Lita did an incredible job despite being out of wrestling for so long.
"Oh my god, I was so proud of her. The things that she delivered, she just did so well. And I know, any of us, I am talking about me when I went back, Lita went back, I know Stone Cold Steve Austin is going back. It is like you are going back to something you haven't been to for so long. But I will tell you we realize that it is in us."
Stratus added:
"You get in that environment and it just comes. I know Amy [Lita] was super nervous going into it. But as soon as she went back to it I just knew she was back. It was Lita, the fans were behind her and she was feeling that and she delivered. They had a hell of a match. Both of them did amazing and I was so proud watching her." (29:25 onwards)
