Lita Wins First WWE Championship In 17 Years

Lita

Becky Lynch and Lita are the new Women’s Tag Team Champions via an assist from a returning Trish Stratus.

The victory marks the first time that Lita and Becky Lynch have won tag team gold in their respective careers. But they also owe a huge debt of gratitude to Trish Stratus who arrived at ringside to take out Bayley and even the odds.

As Bayley got more and more involved in the match, Stratus arrived to a huge ovation. The star beatdown Bayely, eventually laying her out with a Chick Kick. Becky Lynch dealt with IYO SKY on the ring apron trapping her in the Disarm-her, leaving Lita free to hit her famous Moonsault onto Dakota Kai to score a massive win.

Lita, Becky Lynch, and Trish Stratus posed in the ring as fireworks went off and the show went off the air.

Lita Set For WrestleMania Match

The WWE Hall of Famer returned to the red brand on February 6th to help Becky Lynch defeat Bayley in a Steel Cage match. Two weeks later Lita was back again to stand side-by-side with Lynch to lay down a challenge for the Women’s Tag Team Titles.

Ahead of winning the gold on Raw, it was reported that Lita could be set for a major match at WrestleMania. The match in question will see Lynch and Lita defend their newly-won titles against Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler.

Incredibly, this would be only the second WrestleMania match of Lita’s career.
