RAW Women’s Champion Becky Lynch has spoken candidly about her admiration for Lita after defeating the WWE Hall of Famer at Elimination Chamber.
Yesterday, Lynch retained her title against Lita in Saudi Arabia, in what many expect to be Lita’s last match with WWE.
In a post match interview, ‘Big-Time Becks’ couldn’t hold back her emotions as she said Lita still has ‘it’ and called the former WWE Women’s Champion her childhood hero:
“It was, it was [special]. There were a lot of emotions coming into this match and now there is a lot of emotions after leaving this match. My childhood hero [Lita], the person I looked up to in a match that I honestly never thought is going to happen. And when she challenged me, there were so many conflicting ideas in my head that yes, this is something that a 13-year-old me would have loved but now, it is right before WrestleMania. And if anything happens, if I slip on a banana peel and fall, I could lose the most important thing in my life to my childhood hero and how badly would that affect me.”
