#3.) Lita – 147 days
Lita retired in rather humiliating fashion in 2006. She was one of the biggest heels in WWE at the time and for some reason, the company felt that it would be more fitting for her to have a humiliating send-off. While we can’t comment on the circumstances surrounding it, the fact is that Lita didn’t really get the emotional farewell she deserved like Trish Stratus a few months prior.
So Survivor Series 2006 was her swansong and it was only a few months later when Lita returned part-time to the independent scene, wrestling for United Wrestling Federation in a mixed tag team match. She did get the recognition she deserved years later as she was inducted into the Hall of Fame.
Today, she’s considered one of the most important female trailblazers in WWE history.
