Trish Stratus and Lita had come a long way by 2013.

Their relationship had progressed nicely since those early days Lita spent doubting Trish's desire for the pro wrestling industry, and they'd travelled thousands of miles together flying the flag for the women's roster. When Trish gave birth to her son Maximus in 2013, she asked if Lita would like to become the kid's godmother.

That moment helped bond the pair together for life. Not only were they peers who had grown to respect one another, Trish and Lita had also become real-life friends away from the ring. Now, with this token gesture from Stratus, they'd start to consider one another family too.

Old rivals turned into friends forever. In 2014, Lita picked Trish to induct her into the WWE Hall Of Fame 24 hours before WrestleMania XXX. That, along with Stratus' decision to name Lita the godmother of her firstborn, sealed their connection.
