Amy "Lita" Dumas Responds to Jim Ross, WWE Tenure

Amy Dumas also recently commented on Jim Ross’ views on her via her MySpace page.

"I really appreciate the kind words from him. I always got along and respected him. He shoots straight and is sincere in his words. I do feel as though I contributed a lot to the wrestling business, and I understand "Lita" left the WWE as a heel character. However, the human being Amy Dumas, gave a lot of blood, sweat, and tears to the WWE, and I am glad that someone that the same person that hired me, acknowledged that."

Amy "Lita" Dumas Comments on WWE Departure

The Baltimore Sun recently interview Amy "Lita" Dumas, former WWE Diva. Here are a couple of excerpts from it:

Amy Dumas On her departure from WWE she said, "It felt like it was time to at least see what else was out there. It's a job that you have to give 110 percent to be successful at, and I just felt like I didn't have 110 percent to give anymore. I feel like if I would have stayed longer with WWE I would have started to resent my time there, because you're so inundated with the schedule and everything."

She also said that the storyline with Edge and Matt Hardy was a hard time in her life:

"When you go through personal problems, it's hard enough as it is, but then to have every aspect of your life out there and to feel like everybody knows your business when they really only know such a small percent and they're passing judgment ... there were definitely days when I didn't feel like getting on the plane to go to work."
