I always liked Lita. Before her neck injury she had better matches, but she was hotter post injury. I too miss her cleavage.

This might get me some hate, but I think she was at her best both in-ring and looks wise when she was with the Hardys, back when she was doing the thong above pants thing.
Pre-implants, pre-weightgain.

I liked her at her plumpest, around say WrestleMania X-Seven.

I never really liked her until she went heel and was paired with Edge. Her boobjob at that point was tremendous, and did a good job of distracting my eyes from her somewhat rough face.
She was never one of my favorite divas though, and I miss Trish Stratus alot more.

Me too...
Not only because shw was great as Edge's woman, not only because she had many great matches and got (physically) involved in her partners' matches.
But mostly because she was one of the first, and last, Divas to be a wrestler FIRST, and then an attractive piece of meat. In an era where women were on RAW just to flash their boobs and little more.
Lita helped restoring some credibility into the floundering women's division, something that looked almost impossible.
And yet she'll always be remembered mainly for the Matt-Edge thing, and for the jokes about her long list of "lovers"... Blah

I remember back in her Team Extreme days, she was always one of my favourite wrestlers because she was, well, hot (I was 13), but also because she looked different then any other female wrestler. IIRC, she was the only one around that time who wrestled in anything approaching sensible clothing, which was awesome. (Ivory doesn't count ) Also, I'm still a little annoyed at the way they had her leave. Obviously she shouldn't have had the Trish-exit, but they could at least have not had Chryme completely bury her on air. Even with every possible other thing, she deserves plaudits for being in the business for a number of years and for repeatedly risking her health for our enjoyment. ... Though I did only catch that show a few weeks back, its not like I've been carrying the pain down deep all these years.

I miss her, too. Gorgeous body, great talent. I wasn't too thrilled about her mic work, but hey, two out of three ain't bad.

Pre-implants, pre-weightgain. Oh no, I totally agree. She was still fairly hot as Edge's mistress, but the look she has when she was with the Hardys was wayyyy hotter.

Yeah, I definitely miss her. One of those cases where you see someone right from the start, I remember watching the episode of Heat in 2000 when Papi Chulo (Rios) came out with Lita and beat Gillberg.
Great as the go-getting punky babyface. Even when challenged by guys she still kept the 'don't back down' attitude, helped by taking some impressive bumps.
And, much like Trish, managed to slut it up brilliantly as a heel, a big part of getting Edge into that main event in my opinion. Added a lot to his character, in and out of the ring. Plus outfits that often defied gravity, homina homina etc.

I also think Marc Mero had an underrated moonsault back in his "Wildman" days. Mero was an underrated performer in general. You're right, though, his "Mero" sault was an amazing variation. Oh, I also miss Lita.

She was fine pre-neck injury but when she came back she became too sloppy in the ring for my tastes.

She was fine pre-neck injury but when she came back she became too sloppy in the ring for my tastes. True, but at least the went from Good to Passable. While Trish, the "best female wrestler of the decade" went from Barking On All Four to Passable-against-a-Good-Opponent.. Yet, guess who got the best send-off in history, this side of Ric Flair, and who got laughed back to the locker-room while Cryme Tyme were selling "her" private belongings? Lita has contributed to the business much much more than Trish, yet has gotten less than half of the credit the other one had... And Trish's last appearence at WrestleMania, in that botchtastic match with Mickie, that will be forever remembered for the Pussy Claw+Fingerlick of Doom is the oh-so-fitting "tribute" to Trish's alleged greatness... /rant

Pre-implants, pre-weightgain. she had implants since she debuted in WWE\F, though in her book she said she did it for herself and not to get ahead in her career.
