Lita Praises AEW’s Lights Out Match: ‘They Went For It And Delivered’

WWE Hall of Famer, Lita is no stranger to main-eventing in professional wrestling.

Respectfully known for her history-making 2004 RAW main event match against Trish Stratus, Lita (Amy Dumas) knows what it takes and feels like to compete in that primetime slot. Recently appearing on Oral Sessions with Renee Paquette, Dumas was asked her thoughts on All Elite Wrestling’s first-ever women’s main event and Lights Out match between Britt Baker and Thunder Rosa:

“Holy sh*t, right? Like–Insane. That was great that they got that spotlight but just to talk about, like you just need a moment that brings you up from a wrestler that people have heard about to just-knock your stock up,” Dumas praised, “You know, I think Thunder Rosa won the match but it was one of those where it’s like it doesn’t matter. They just tore the house down and there’s also no counterpoint. There’s no counterargument.

“Like, that was an awesome match. I mean not to mention, or yes, actually to mention, the crazy stuff they did. I saw the bag come out, and I was like, ‘I’m for sure there’s thumbtacks in there’ and yeah, they fully went for it–not for a gender or for a amount of time in the business. They went for it and delivered. It was crazy.”
