10 Things WWE Wants You To Forget About Lita

8. She Was Part Of The Godfather's Ho-Train

Lita didn't go straight from ECW to the WWF main roster though. She had to earn her stripes first, and during the 'Attitude Era', that meant appearing as one of The Godfather's lovely ladies. Just like Victoria would later, Lita worked as a 'ho' on television before anybody even knew her name.

This wasn't part of Lita's WWE Hall Of Fame speech in 2014, even though she got to perform alongside another inductee. We can't imagine why.

Of course, there's a good reason this wasn't mentioned in the modern era: Being dubbed a 'Ho' is hardly flattering, and is a stark reminder of the contempt with which WWE once held their female performers, and women in general.

Still, it happened, and the footage remains on the WWE Network for those interested. The only saving grace for Lita may be that she looked a little different back then, so those without eagle eyes may not even recognise her at all.

It was definitely Lita though. Sorry, WWE.
