Welcome back to wrestling world!
Today we’ll be taking a look at the latest new update to Alexa’s character as well
as Alexa’s answer to one of our questions, so let’s get into it
Last time we touched on this topic, we left off with the Summerslam situation
Reports claimed that the original summerslam script featured Alexa playing a key role in
the main event of the night
Obviously that never happened and Alexa retweeted some of the fans that were questioning where
she was
That led to our discussion earlier in the week where we were wondering what happens
now with Alexa Bliss?
Does WWE drop that entire story for her and move in a whole new direction or do they find
a way to keep that same Fiend influence story going for her
I had my doubts, after so many other cancelled storylines this year, I thought there was
a real good chance that Alexa’s change gets dropped as well, especially with her cryptic
tweets, but thankfully that was wrong
WWE seems to be continuing that story of Alexa’s big transition and things are really starting
to heat up
Alexa wasn’t on Smackdown or Summerslam last week, but she finally returned this week
for a brief backstage segment
The segment was extremely short, but it told us a lot about where her character is at right
now
Nikki Cross is Backstage, having a discussion and Alexa Bliss appears
The one thing that stood out to me right away, it was even one of the first things Nikki
cross brought up, was Alexa’s hairstyle
Alexa had her hair up in that Margo Robbie / Harley Quinn sort of style
The last time Alexa had her hair like this was back in November 2019, but it was just
used as a special one night look for the pay per view
Alexa Bliss really made that look go viral during her debut year in 2016.
Alexa first debuted the Harley Quinn hairstyle that year and wore it for several appearances
There’s even Mattel figures, photoshoots, and so much merchandise of Alexa with that
hairstyle.
It was one of her iconic first looks on the main roster
But without counting that one night look in November 2019, it has been well over 4 years
that she wore the Harley Quinn look on a consistent basis
So what does her bringing back that hairstyle represent?
It’s quite early to tell, but my wish is still the same, I hope we do sort of get a
Harley Quinn like vibe from Alexa’s character going forward
But forget about the Harley Quinn hairstyle for a second because there was something much
bigger that was obviously going on with Alexa’s hair and Nikki pointed it out as well
A portion of Alexa’s hair closely represented the look of The Fiend’s hair
Alexa even noted that she thought of having her entire hairstyle done in that same sort
of Fiend style.
Could that comment there be foreshadowing by Alexa and that she will continue to transition
her hair to look exactly like the fiend’s?
That’s something we’ll have to keep a very close eye on, so pay attention to Alexa’s
hair in the near future because we got some heavy teases that huge changes might be coming
to her hair
WWE wants us to know that her hair matches the fiend’s because even one of the character’s
in the segment obviously made that known and called it out
Nikki Cross is very open with Alexa and tells her that she doesn’t like it because it
reminds her of The Fiend
Alexa’s entire mood changes the second The Fiend is brought up and I really loved that
Alexa seems to call off her friendship with Nikki and smashes the mug she got Nikki on
the ground before walking off
This entire segment was maybe 30 seconds to a minute long in overall length, but I absolutely
loved it and thought it was brilliant because it added so much depth to Alexa’s current
character and gave us a real good update
Take a look at the timeline for Alexa Bliss in recent weeks.
Nikki starts acting ruthless towards her and we all thought Nikki was turning heel and
Alexa would be the babyface, but that didn’t turn out to be true at all
After being captured and changed by the Fiend, it appears that Alexa could very well be the
heel in this situation
You take a look at how Alexa was when she confronted Braun Strowman compared to this
week’s segment with Nikki cross and it’s night and day
Alexa will still affected, but she was still mostly herself during that segment with strowman
a few weeks ago
But the Alexa we saw this week has clearly changed and is starting to lose it and let
that Fiend influence just take over
The vibe that I got from Alexa Bliss this week, besides Harley Quinn, was a little bit
of Bray Wyatt in there as well
Alexa sort of had that same vibe that Bray Wyatt has.
Bray is so warm and friendly to everyone when he’s himself, just like how Alexa first
entered the segment, just being happy and hugging all of them
But the second The Fiend gets mentioned, Bray’s whole vibe changes and that’s exactly what
happened with Alexa as well
It’s like she was basically Firefly Alexa towards the start of the segment and basically
ends the segment with being The Fiend Alexa Bliss, her character completely flipped entirely
around just because The Fiend came into the conversation
I love this moment because of all the possibilities and potential it has to be a really fun story
like where does Alexa go from here?
One idea I thought of is Alexa basically becoming The Fiend’s sort of secret admirer and she
just becomes obsessed with The Fiend
I feel like WWE has hinted at that heavily over the last few weeks.
Alexa said during the interview that she loved being around him, well saw her basically tame
him from attacking, and now she’s taking inspirations from his hairstyle
So if I had to take a guess with where this story is going, I think Alexa could turn out
to just be dangerously obsessed with The Fiend and that’s going to cause a major change
with herself and her personality like we’re already starting to see
It’s a little cliché and generic, but I think changing Alexa’s hairstyle to match
The Fiend’s Hair or even having her change the color of her hair would be a great visual
representation of the change that’s happening within her
Now that we got the clarification that Alexa’s story is continuing, I’m excited again to
see where it goes
——————————————
this is just another small side topic involving Alexa Bliss, but it includes the channel,
so I thought I’ll throw it in here for you guys to hear about
Our good friends over at Topps WWE Slam reached out and said that they were having Alexa Bliss
on for a Question and Answer session and would love for us to send in a question for her
So that’s exactly what we did, the question I submitted to Alexa Bliss was a simple one,
but I thought it would be quite interesting to ask
My question was: what match did you learn from the most or taught you something that
you didn’t previously know
Alexa had this to say in response to the question:
“It wasn’t even my matches, I would say it was when I was managing Blake and Murphy.
That’s when I learned the most in-ring psychology because I was still involved, but I wasn’t
having to worry about remembering a match or anything.
I was still developing my character at the same time and I think when you take time as
a manager, you learn a lot because you can take yourself out of it, but still be in it
and learn.
I say I learned the most from managing.”
So thanks again to Topps for the opportunity to submit a question and special thanks to
Alexa for answering the question
She really broke it down and give a real good insight to the question.
She learned the most about in-ring psychology and how to develop her character thanks to
her time managing Blake and Murphy.
Her time with them is most likely why she has made it soo big on the main roster
So it was great to learn that she learned the most when she was just standing at ringside
as a manager, really interesting to know.
Being that close to the action, but just observing, being able to still be involved, but still
take yourself out of it at anytime, must be extremely useful for new talent like Alexa
at the that time who awas still discovering her own character
What are your thoughts on another new hint of Alexa going through possibly big physical
and mental changes with her character
And what did you of Alexa’s answer to our question as well?
