Below are some top WWE news stories of the day.
• Since announcing her pregnancy last year, Alexa Bliss has been away from WWE programming, leaving fans eager for the multi-time Women’s Champion’s eventual comeback. Recently, Bliss has hinted at possibly reviving an iconic character during her time off.
After giving birth to her daughter last year, Bliss has been fully engaged in motherhood and hasn’t yet returned to WWE programming. Her last appearance was at Royal Rumble 2023, where she faced Bianca Belair for the RAW Women’s Championship and lost.
Now, Bliss has fueled excitement by confirming her intention to return to the ring soon. Fans are speculating whether she’ll come back as her most recent persona or try something different.
On X, Bliss engaged with a post asking who has the best mic skills among Bianca Belair, Becky Lynch, Tiffany Stratton, Rhea Ripley, Liv Morgan, and her own 2017 self. When a fan remarked, “Don’t nobody want it with 2017 Alexa Bliss,” Bliss responded, hinting at a comeback of her 2017 character, with the comment, “Just you wait.”
Bliss’s 2017 persona was always on fire on the microphone, often dominating fans and shutting down her rivals instantly.
