I actually think she was hotter in the Team Xtreme days myself.
I still remember her and Steph MAIN-EVENTING RAW for the Women's Title, unheard of back then and a great moment.

lita was awesome. i think she had even more impact than trish did in terms of moving women's wrestling in america away from the second rate strip show that the attitude era had made it, but she doesn't really get credited as much as trish does in that regard.
and throw me into the camp of people who didn't like the way she left. i know they wouldn't have done it if she wasn't okay with it, but it was still a bad note to leave on. she has a fantastic match with mickie, passing the torch, and the women's title, to her, and then rather than take the respectable walk to the back, she gets that. ugh.

I liked the Sid & Nancy gimmick that Edge and Lita had going on.

She was actually quite un-okay with it, but she sucked it up and went along with it anyway. In an interview she gave a while back, she said she thought it was completely humiliating, but she wanted to be a professional. In my opinion, her character was such an evil witch that she needed to get her comeuppance in the end, but they took that idea way too far and ended up disrespecting the person behind the character in the process. I've always been a bigger fan of Lita than of Trish. I have total respect for everything Trish has done, but I've just always found Lita much more entertaining.

I wasn't a huge fan of her, but the sendoff she got was disgusting. You can't really use the "she was a heel" logic either now that Victoria just got a respectful sendoff.

I think they redeemed it at the anniversary show, with her coming back, being treated as a face, and actually as a bigger deal than Trish appearing. That, and her and Kane having awkward chitchat was one of the funniest things on the show.

I liked her best when she wore those loose open shirts that made it look like her boobs were about to fall out... on the other hand, I've never been crazy about girls with overly grotesque tatoos.

Lita was both awesome and hot, liked her from the beginning when she debuted with Essa Rios. Then when she was with the Hardys she had a really cool look that set her apart from the other divas. Just as sexy as your big-titted, scantily clad blondes, but in a different way with the whole alternative/skatepunk thing going, and of course the peeking-out thongs. She was exciting to watch in the ring too. Then she was smoking as Edge's badgirl. I get the impression that she's quite a chilled and down-to-earth person outside of wrestling character as well.

Oh, how I do miss her. One of my favorite women's wrestlers, very, very talented, not to mention ridiculously hot. I think she's highly underrated from behind though.

I thought she was so incredibly hot. Loved her from her debut till the whole Matt-Edge drama went down.
Loved the red-hair, the outfits, the wrestling-style, the glare in her eye that gave off the impression you weren't gonna do as much to her as she was going to do to you..( ..Or coulda been my imagination..)
And to this day, I will occassionally make my Girlfrined stick her thong out mainly because of how Hot I thought it looked on Lita.
Shame how that the girl left the WWE though. But. All in all..she brought it upon herself.

Sure you can, Victoria essentially turned face the week prior. Lita's character was being a "dirty filthy disgusting bottomfeeding trashbag ho" (TM Chris Jericho 2001) The sendoff fit her perfectly.

Look, I get her character was that of a sleeze, but given everything she did for women's wrestling, the send off of her screaming/nearly crying as Cryme tyme humilated her for what seemed like an eternity was way too over the top. Especially given the Godess sendoff the Trish got just 2 months earlier. They couldnt have had Lita say something like, "love me or hate me, I busted my ass for you people and I loved doing it" Direct and somewhat staying in character.

You can't compare Trish's sendoff to Lita's Trish got the Godess sendoff because her character was basically "Godess of wrestling" Has Lita ever said if she had a problem with it? Or is it just angry interwebz folks who complain? From the looks of it Lita was fine with it, of course she may just be a good professional.

Im fairly certian that Lita was really uneasy with her sendoff
