Stephanie and Lita were involved in major storylines with The Undertaker

#4 Lita

One of the most popular Divas of all time, Lita had her fair share of encounters with The Undertaker, both as an ally and a rival. Back in 2001, The Undertaker and Kane, dubbed as The Brothers of Destruction, came to Lita's rescue when The Two Man Power Trip (Triple H and Stone Cold Steve Austin) were about to attack her in the ring. This was shortly after Stone Cold had turned heel at WrestleMania 17 and won the WWE title from The Rock.

Later in the year, Lita and Jeff Hardy were both tossed off the entrance stage by The Deadman, during a Hardcore title match. Matt Hardy, Lita's boyfriend in real life, attempted to exact revenge on The Undertaker, but ended up getting injured in a match with him.

The trio attacked The Undertaker during the 2002 Royal Rumble match, with The Deadman eliminating The Hardy Boyz from the match. The distraction led to one of the biggest upsets in the history of WWE, as Tough Enough winner Maven eliminated him from the free-for-all.

He completed his MBA from the Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management in 2016 and worked with multiple banking institutions, including Tech Mahindra. While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.

Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
