Alexa Bliss has provided another update to her WWE return situation, so we’ll see what’s
going on there.
We’ll also take a look at what’s going on with Eva Marie
Let’s start things off with this Eva Marie topic, what’s the story there?
Well Do-drop was recently interviewed by Sean Ross and one of the topics that came up was
the former WWE superstar, Eva Marie
WWE had signed Eva Marie back to the company a while back, but she didn’t return to television
right away because creative had nothing for her
Plans for Eva Marie were finally made in mid 2021 and that’s when her return became official
and started getting teasers
Eva’s new story was that since she left WWE and became a big star, she was back to
help create new stars and show some of the new women how to be a big star like her
So everyone figured that she’ll be more in a manager role, but that wasn’t exactly
the case
Instead of technically being a manager, Eva Marie basically brought Do-drop into the main
roster scene to do the dirty work for her, but still take all the credit from Do-drop
That was their entire storyline from start to finish
And after the completion of the Alexa Bliss versus Eva Marie story, we saw a few Eva and
Do-drop matches before Eva Marie was never used again and later released
A lot of fans say “well, what was the point of Eva’s second run?
All she did was feud with Alexa Bliss and then get released.”
And that is true, everyone thought Eva’s second run would have played a bit more of
a significant role, but one great thing to come from that Eva run was of course Do-drop
herself
Pairing up Do-drop with a familiar face like Eva Marie and having her play a role in that
story with Alexa Bliss really helped to put Do-drop on the map
Do-drop would continue to have great success and even made it to the title picture for
a story with Becky Lynch
So during this interview, Do-drop was asked about everything related to Eva Marie and
had this to say, quote:
“It was scary, to be honest.
But she’s the nicest, sweetest person I’ve ever met in my life.
I miss her so, so much.
I loved having her.
I loved being with her.
She was like my big sister.
She taught me so much about the company and how everything works.
I felt like a kid gone off to school for the first time.
It’s like, ‘Mom, come back!’
But it was necessary, I think, for me to stand on my own two feet and gain the confidence
to end up where we are now.”
End quote
So a lot of fans talk about Eva Marie not being the most technical wrestler in the ring,
but she was definitely around the WWE for a long time and knows how the company operates.
She knows what’s gonna generate a reaction and what’s not, so for her to pass all that
knowledge down to a newcomer to WWE like Do-drop obviously played a big role in Do-drop’s
hot start to her WWE career
Will Do-drop ever get her wish of Eva Marie returning to WWE?
We’ll have to see if that’s the case in the future
————————
So by now everyone is well aware of how nonsensical Alexa Bliss’ elimination chamber return
appeared to be
For someone like Alexa Bliss to be built up for weeks, return, lose, and then disappear
was definitely not what fans expected to see at all
Fans have been voicing their frustration ever since that event, but it appears that Alexa
is also voicing her frustration through some subtle tweets every now and then
One fan responded to one of Alexa’s recent tweets by just telling her to come back to
WWE already
Alexa replied by saying that it’s not up to her with a shrugging emoji
So following Alexa’s crazy and sudden disappearance, everyone was wondering what happened
Did she get hurt at Elimination Chamber?
Did something go wrong?
Did plans fall through?
Then you had other sarcastic fans that responded to Alexa’s tweet by telling her to wait
it out and let it play out, which of course was the same thing she said to the fans during
the early weeks of the therapy sessions
The entire “let it play out” line is something that you constantly here about when it comes
to questionable WWE storylines
Everyone always says “let it play out” when a storyline is receiving criticism and
that line is becoming a joke amongst the community because as everyone knows, nothing important
ever happens when we do let something play out
Retribution, Mandy and Otis, WWE hacker, Alexa and Bray, and The Fiend are all some recent
examples of things that everyone said to let it play out and nothing happened in all of
those cases
So that’s the backstory behind that sarcastic line
But telling by everything Alexa Bliss has been saying after Elimination Chamber, it
sounds like she’s fully healthy and ready to go, this absence isn’t on her anymore,
this is a WWE creative issue
Alexa’s line of “it’s not up to me”, sort of implies that there isn’t anything
she can do on her behalf to speed up her return, it’s all in WWE’s hands now
And like we mentioned in all of the previous Alexa Bliss updates, we’re going on nearly
two years now of waiting for WWE to do something really significant with this new version of
Alexa Bliss, but it has yet to take place
Like we briefly touched on before, the Raw after Wrestlemania seems to be the ideal spot
for Alexa Bliss’ return
She’s not on TV right now because she’s obviously not a part of the Wrestlemania card,
so all this TV time needs to go to those Wrestlemania feuds, that’s understandable
But after Wrestlemania itself, we should definitely see Alexa Bliss
The only way to make any sense out of Alexa’s Elimination Chamber return is for her to confront
the new champion Bianca Belair on the Raw after Wrestlemania
That’s really the only way you can tie that pointless return back into Alexa’s story
and give her motive to go after Bianca Belair
But remember all of Alexa’s recent appearances have been pin-fall losses
She went from not being pinned in over a year, to getting pinned by Charlotte, pinned by
Bianca, and hasn’t had any sort of victory since fall 2021
So you’re entering dangerous territory now with Alexa Bliss because she’s in desperate
need of a win
If she comes back for Bianca Belair after Wrestlemania only to be easily handled and
defeated by Bianca then that’s gonna be a problem
Where do you really take Alexa now coming off of three big losses in a row, that’s
a scary thought
So if Alexa has no real shot at defeating whoever is the champion after Wrestlemania
then maybe it’ll be a good idea to keep her away and protect her from that loss for
a bit
Have her build up some momentum, get some wins, and then get back to the title picture
because bringing her right back into the title scene just to lose doesn’t sound like the
best option
So is there still hype around Alexa Bliss’ return?
Of course there is, everyone can’t wait to see her back on WWE television, the only
scary part that makes fans feel a bit uneasy about her return is the creative plans, what
direction is WWE going to take her in?
The uncertainty in that department is what fans are really worried about because that
has been an issue for Alexa’s character ever since joining Bray Wyatt
They really stretched out and completely butchered the Alexa Bliss and Randy Orton storyline,
even Randy himself said all of that was just insane
Then the split from Bray Wyatt with no real explanation, the arrival of Lilly which also
made little to no sense, the loss to Charlotte, the therapy sessions, the Elimination chamber
return…
just all of these decisions that end up being weird and not making a lot of logical sense,
that’s the problem there
But there’s no issues with Alexa Bliss herself, we just have to hope that this is finally
the return where they get her usage right, that’s the only thing we can hope for
