3) Lita
One of the most popular female superstars in WWE, Amy “Lita” Dumas decided to leave the WWE in the autumn of 2006 after she lost the Women’s Championship to Mickie James at the Survivor series pay-per-view.
She had a huge fan base, more so after she defeated Stephanie McMahon for the Women’s Championship in the first ever female main event in 2000. The former champion was also part of Team Xtreme where she along with the Hardy Boyz made regular appearances on Raw and SmackDown.
She left because she wanted to retire and that, in our opinion, is reason enough to leave. She was about 30 years old when she bid goodbye to the world of wrestling, however, it would be such a treat to see her make a comeback, for a match or two.
