10 Worst WWE Matches Of 2021 (So Far)

10. Asuka Vs. Alexa Bliss (Monday Night Raw, January 18th)

Two and a half decent minutes of back-and-forth were sacrificed in order to get over the confusing and frustratingly unfinished Alexa Bliss gimmick in a contest even worse than their second a week later.

When Bliss brought down the lights and switched her colour scheme from pink to black, Asuka had to sell sheer, scarcely-believable terror despite the fact that the referee wasn't remotely rattled and the commentators switched only switched from a yell to an ASMR whisper to call it.

A tonal mess, Bliss suddenly had enough magic powers to completely no-sell kicks and a spinning back fist from the 'Empress Of Tomorrow', begging the question why she wouldn't just do this from the off. In the aftermath, she switched back to her supposedly normal side, only to mouth "Let Me In" as Bray Wyatt's voice played over the PA and Raw went off the air.

That's right - this was the evening's main event too. That status alone damned it long before the contradictory messaging and spooky bullsh*t ate itself.

And it only got worse from there...
