10 Saving Graces Of WWE Programming In 2017

10. Alexa Bliss

Alexa Bliss' in-ring abilities remain questionable, especially considering how mediocre her matches with Bayley, Becky Lynch, and Mickie James were in 2017, but there's no denying that she carried the women's division on Raw and SmackDown Live during her time on both brands.

Once she left SmackDown for Raw in April as part of the Superstar Shake-up, the blue brand's women's division was never same, and instead devolved to holding multi-woman matches on every one of their pay-per-views for many months. On Raw, Alexa wasted no time in taking the brand's top strap from Bayley and beating everyone who stepped up to challenge her.

Save for the extremely brief eight-day reign of Sasha Banks in late August, Bliss has held gold for almost the entirety of her Raw run, and currently, there's no end in sight.

Say what you will about Bliss being overexposed on the flagship show, but she is easily the best talker of all the women on Raw right now. Imagine how much more uneventful women's wrestling would have been in WWE without her last year.
