As noted earlier, Lita is scheduled to be on WWE SmackDown tonight to promote the upcoming Women’s Royal Rumble match.
PWInsider is reporting that the decision to book Lita for the show was last minute. She was not booked to be part of the show until yesterday and then she was called and a plane ticket was purchased for her.
This would be the first time in 20 years that Lita has appeared on SmackDown. Lita is one of several returning names announced for the Royal Rumble.
Impact Knockouts Champion Mickie James, Kelly Kelly, Summer Rae, and The Bella Twins are just some of the names advertised to return this year and there are still spots open for unannounced surprises.
