5 WWE stars you didn't know were godparents to fellow wrestlers' children

#4. Lita is the godmother of Trish Stratus' son Maximus

Trish Stratus retired from WWE back in September 2006 at Unforgiven in her hometown of Toronto, Canada, just days before she went on to marry her long-time boyfriend Ron. Stratus was then inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2013 and she was able to announce as part of her induction speech that she and her husband were expecting their first child together.

Interestingly, Maximus was born on Trish Stratus' anniversary on September 30th, 2013 and after giving birth to her first child and working so hard to finally become pregnant, Stratus looked to her long time friend, rival and fellow wrestler Lita to be his godmother.

Stratus and Lita have been best friends ever since the duo feuded for the first time in a WWE ring and over the past decade whilst Stratus and Lita have been working on their careers outside of the ring, it's nice to see that the two women have found a way to remain as close as they always were.
