Hi there, welcome back to Amolipi channel, where you can learn more interesting information
about your favorite actors and athletes. In today's video,
let's take a look at the career and some interesting facts of one-time WWE star Lita.
Amy Christine Dumas, better known by her ring name Lita, is an American retired professional
wrestler, animal welfare activist, and former singer. She was born in Fort Lauderdale,
Florida on April 14, 1975 and is now 46 years old. Dumas performed as a full-time wrestler with WWE
from 2000 to 2006 and has since made part-time appearances with the company. Often regarded as
one of the greatest women's performers, she was also one of the most popular female superstars in
World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) and was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2014.
Amy Christine Dumas was born to Michael and Christine Dumas.
She attended many different schools throughout her childhood and adolescent years
and managed to finish high school at Lassiter High School six months before graduation.
She majored in education at Georgia State University,
but dropped out in 1993 because she felt it was too much like high school.
Later, in Washington, D.C., Dumas played bass guitar in several bands, and she worked as a
roadie for a band for five years. She began taking judo classes and started wrestling.
In 1999, Dumas began dating Matt Hardy. In February 2005, it was revealed that Dumas had
been romantically involved with fellow wrestler Adam "Edge" Copeland for several months while
still in a relationship with Hardy, who had been at home recovering from a knee injury.
Following a public revelation of the affair, Matt Hardy was released by WWE. Hardy was
rehired several months later and the real-life situation was translated into a storyline.
Dumas dated fellow band member Shane Morton from 2006 to 2008.
Dumas also dated CM Punk from 2009 to 2010, and then again from late 2012 to September 2013.
Initially using the name of Angelica, Dumas started her wrestling career in Mexico with
the Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) in 1998, followed by briefly working on the US independent
circuit in early 1999, and then working for 6 months in Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW).
Dumas then signed with the World Wrestling Federation (WWF, later WWE) in November 1999,
debuting in February 2000 as Lita. Originally, she was paired with Essa Rios,
but she achieved her greatest push alongside Matt and Jeff Hardy as Team Xtreme, and in 2005–2006
was a heel wrestler, including as a manager to Edge. She is a four-time WWE Women's Champion
and was often considered to be the most popular Diva in the company's history.
After her retirement from wrestling in 2006, she made part-time appearances as a trainer
and commentator with the company and formed the punk rock band The Luchagors.
In February 2014, Lita was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame class of 2014.
As of 2022, her net worth is estimated to be around $4 million.
Dumas has a wide variety of tattoos: a three eyed green gargoyle on her upper right bicep,
the word "Punk" on the inside of her lower lip, and the word "iconoclast"
written in Russian Cyrillic letters on her lower back neck, all of which she got in the 1990s. In
2007, she acquired a sleeve on her left arm, featuring Mexican skulls, one of which has
the band 7 Seconds' logo on its forehead. Dumas is a known animal lover. In 2003,
she founded the animal charity Amy Dumas Operation Rescue and Education (A.D.O.R.E.).
After retiring from wrestling, in 2009 Dumas bought a house in Nicaragua and splits her time
between her home in Atlanta and her house in Nicaragua, where she enjoys surfing.
Dumas is a vegan. What do you think about this amazing woman?
