Lita Addresses WWE Future Following Elimination Chamber

Following her clash with Becky Lynch at Elimination Chamber, Lita has commented on her in-ring future.

In a post on Instagram after the show, the veteran didn’t rule out returning to the ring again in future as she thanked fans for their support. However, she also said that if that was her final match, she’s proud of what she achieved.

“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.”

Lita’s latest return to WWE came at the 2022 Royal Rumble, where she was back in action for the first time since October 2018. Although she was unsuccessful in winning the women’s Royal Rumble match, her performance garnered praise from fans and critics.
