5. Bliss Pushes Buttons

If there’s one thing Alexa Bliss excels at, it’s working over fans and other wrestlers.

The Raw Women’s Champion gave the Newark, NJ crowd a reason to boo her, then ran down Bayley after the former champ emerged. She continued to demean the Huggable One until she finally did something uncharacteristic – she lashed out at Bliss. But Alexa came back with a vicious kendo stick, furthering the feud between the two and created the much-needed (/snark/) stipulation for their Extreme Rules rematch.

Bliss is just vicious enough to make her a credible heel champion. If her in-ring skills continue to develop, she could be a significant player. But for now, she continues to do what she does well.
