10 Things We Learned From Lita On Stone Cold’s Broken Skull Sessions Podcast

Hustling was a way of life for Lita.

Austin was impressed when she said she'd knocked back several ECW tapings so she could attend WWF tryouts with Dory Funk Jr. Terry Taylor was similarly taken by the redhead, so much so that he started negotiating a deal with the company to bring her in.

Then, disaster struck when Terry left for WCW. Lita figured her federation dreams were dead in the water, especially when Taylor called her up and asked if she wanted the same deal he'd offered in Atlanta instead. The future Hall Of Famer said no, because she had her sights set on the WWF.

JR picked up where Terry had left off, and Ross knew she had something to offer Vince McMahon's roster. The WWF hired her, but Lita could've ended up in WCW had she trusted Taylor's advice. That was a bullet dodged, being honest! She'd go on to steal attention in the fed.
