<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Let me start off with that I am a fan of Alexa Bliss.\u00a0 From the first time I saw her in NXT and her ascent to the main roster, I was like whoa, at this spunky little spitfire who was totally my aesthetic.\u00a0 But aside from the physical appeal, I admired that she could actually go fairly well in the ring, and sell like a million bucks for everyone she worked with.\u00a0 Additionally, she knew and understood how to work an audience, and she was absolutely unflappable in front of a hot crowd, which says a lot more these days considering how fickle and persnickety wrestling fans have become these days.<\/span><\/p>\n But in light of recent rumblings about how Alexa has seemingly lost favor with the WWE, and how it seems like there\u2019s some sourness permeating into the relationship, culminating with the idea of her eventually departing, again I ask, would it really matter?\u00a0 Would it have much of an impact on the WWE?<\/span><\/p>\n I don\u2019t post this query if I didn\u2019t feel that it probably doesn\u2019t, but the reality is that much like all superstars past and present, one man or woman makes the company not, and in the grand spectrum of things, the loss of Alexa Bliss would barely be a blip on the radar.\u00a0 Whether she\u2019s off now due to injury, or just Creative having nothing for her, fans have mostly been used to her not being present over the last year and change, due to the fact that she was out getting married, and the world continues to turn.<\/span><\/p>\n If it is sour grapes in the basket right now, she couldn\u2019t have a worse time to be vaguebooking on the internet, because since her return last year, she really hasn\u2019t done much, which isn\u2019t always entirely the fault of the performer, but when it comes to leverage within the company, it doesn\u2019t help to not be seen as a major player.<\/span><\/p>\n Her last major program, that of being the brainwashed sidekick to Bray Wyatt, didn\u2019t do her any favors as it almost entirely removed her from in-ring work, and into this carny, monotonous supernatural storyline that most adult viewers don\u2019t give two shits about, and in the game of trying to figure out<\/a>\u00a0what wrestler will attempt to make the jump to Hollywood next, seemed like a convenient situation for Alexa to show some acting chops while not really being a wrestler anymore.<\/span><\/p>\n As much as I enjoyed Alexa over the years, the reality is that her in-ring work hasn\u2019t evolved or changed over time, and it\u2019s easy to say that it\u2019s because she\u2019s petite and has a ceiling of believability when it comes to being able to hang in the ring with the likes of Ronda Rousey, Rhea Ripley or Shayna Baszler, women who look like they could beat up most of the NXT roster male or female, at the drop of a hat.\u00a0 She hasn\u2019t been around as long as she has without development, but what I\u2019m getting to is the perception that as much as Creative might be bailing on Alexa Bliss, I think Alexa Bliss has been bailing on the WWE as well.<\/span><\/p>\n And although character work is extremely important to survive in the business, everyone still has to be able to perform in the ring at some point.\u00a0 And Alexa\u2019s in-ring talent has stagnated, while all around her, women have been arriving, developing and evolving all around her, reducing the need for her at all.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n I once joked that Liv Morgan was like an Alexa Bliss-lite as far as being the spunky hot blonde, but the reality is that she has been working her ass off over the last few years, the fans have recognized it, and if the WWE felt that there was only room for one spunky hot blonde, Alexa would be dead in the water right now.\u00a0 And maybe she already is and it only needs to be made official.<\/span><\/p>\n As far as the five-feet of fury moniker that Alexa used to utilize, Roxy Perez in NXT has taken that over too, as the diminutive performer is low-key channeling some AJ Lee vibes simultaneously with her ring gear, but also was trained by Booker T and has a vastly superior arsenal in comparison.<\/span><\/p>\n The bottom line is that Alexa Bliss really isn\u2019t needed in the current WWE stratosphere anymore, and if there\u2019s any beef brewing between them, I hope Alexa is prepared to accept the fact that her past accolades and reputation probably won\u2019t give her as much ammunition to be seen as worth keeping as she might think.\u00a0 I\u2019d miss the eye candy, but in the grand spectrum of things, it probably wouldn\u2019t be for too long.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Let me start off with that I am a fan of Alexa Bliss.\u00a0 From the first time I saw her
