WWE Hall of Famer Lita recently had an interview with Esquire Middle East and discussed about several topics. While speaking, Lita had a praise for AEW and also considered to going there when promotion reached out her.
“AEW is doing exciting stuff. It’s brought new life in the industry. Any time there’s competition, it’s good. It revives the industry. When they reached out to me, I did consider it. I said, we can talk, I’m interested, you guys are doing some interesting stuff,” said Lita.
But after speaking to All Elite Wrestling, she realized that she already had that in WWE. So, Lita felt that going to the AEW promotion at this stage didn’t feel right for her but she stated that she will watch and support them.
“But ultimately, upon talking to them [AEW], it just made me say to myself, ‘but I have all of these things already!’ I have those things with my home that I’ve known for 20 years, with the people that I’ve worked with for 20 years. Basically, I gave them my blessing. I said, I will watch you and I support you. And I want you guys to do great, but this just doesn’t feel like the right fit for me right now,” she added.
