Following the news that Amy “Lita” Dumas would be inducted into the 2014 WWE Hall of Fame Class, WWE Hall of Famers Jim Ross and Trish Stratus commented on the news congratulating the former WWE Women’s Champion.

Trish Stratus: “I’m so happy for Amy! Lita was someone who connected with our audiences right from her very first appearance in the WWE ring. She embodied a generation’s battle to be authentic. Everything about her attitude, from her body language to her outfits, told girls and boys to be true to themselves. Her induction proves that she left an impression and she, rightfully, will not take her place amongst our industry’s best.”

Jim Ross: “Very proud of Amy Dumas aka Lita who will be inducted in the WWE HOF class of 2014 in NOLA the night before WM30. I had heard this info leaked from WWE a couple of weeks ago but did not want to contribute to spoiling the surprise. I did vividly remember meeting Amy in my Stamford office years ago when she came in for a job interview. She had been bold and brave enough to live alone in Mexico to train and develop a different skill set from other females and she eventually became one of WWE’s biggest stars, male or female, during my time in talent relations. There’s a funny story about her less than dainty shoulder tattoo that played into her job interview that I tell on our RINGSIDE shows.”
