Following her return to the ring at the Royal Rumble, Lita will compete in her first singles match in 10 years when she challenges Becky Lynch for the Raw Women's Title at Elimination Chamber on February 19.

Speaking about the upcoming match on his Hall Of Fame podcast, Booker T noted Lita deserves the spotlight in Saudi Arabia.

"God bless Lita, go get that money girl. It's a great match to have for that Saudi crowd because I'll tell you right now, that crowd probably thought that Lita was still on the roster. That's how much they love throwbacks, that's how much those guys over there love seeing someone from that era," Booker T began.

"For me, them having the chance to see Lita over there is going to be huge. Becky Lynch is going to be big as well. But for the people in Saudi to see Lita, it is going to be a big moment for them. As well, it's going to be a big moment for women's wrestling," he continued.

"For Lita to actually be able to have that moment, I think she deserves it. You say she's taking somebody's spot? I don't think so. Because I don't think anybody from a female perspective of this era is going to be as big as Lita in Saudi Arabia at this time right now. I don't think any of the females on the roster are as big as Lita is in Saudi Arabia in 2022. I could be wrong, but those fans over there, they want some old school."

Lita made an appearance on Monday's edition of Raw to promote the match and she ended the night standing tall after decking the Raw Women's Champion with a Twist of Fate and her patented Moonsault.
