In fact, Lita recently said that her dream fight would be to enter the ring against Ripley. “It’s wild,” Ripley told Sporting News Australia. “It simply came to our notice then. Talking to her is crazy for me. As if he is such a wonderful person and knows that someone like Lita, someone who has been in this business for years and paved the way for all of us girls, wants to fight me. It’s exciting, it’s absolutely exciting and I really hope that happens. Well, WWE, if you’re listening to this interview, please, please. I would love that too. And as you said, because she may not have many matches left, if I could be one of the last, it would be completely crazy and I’m desperate for that. “ Lita recently returned to the WWE for a short tour. She crossed paths with Rhea Ripley when they participated in the Women’s Royal Rumble in January. That led to a story with RAW women champion Becky Lynch that culminated in the Elimination Chamber pay-per-view in February. “I had a lot of conversations with Lita,” Ripley said. “And I accept everything he says and it really is, like, whenever he talks to me, he more or less explains to me how much he believes in me and that is the number one thing that really helps me. Having someone like her believe in me and believe that I could possibly become the face of the WWE women’s division, as this is all I need to hear to light the fire under my a ** and just to keep going and keep going. And fortunately for me, I can fight it a bit at Royal Rumble. Somehow he taught me a lesson there as well. “I almost had it there though.” If you use any of the excerpts in this article, credit Sporting News Australia with ah / t at Wrestling Inc. for transcription.
