7 Ups And 5 Downs From Last Night's WWE Raw (Feb 5)

6. What’s Bliss’ Motivation?

If you were keeping score Monday night, Alexa Bliss came to the rescue of Mickie James after Bliss learned she would face five women in an Elimination Chamber match later this month, one of whom will be James.

Knowing Bliss, the Raw Women’s Champion was simply trying to curry favor with Mickie and maybe form an alliance in the chamber. Considering that Mickie had just defeated Sonya Deville and was attacked by Absolution, that would make perfect sense.

And it all would fit Alexa’s conniving personality. Expect this to be fleshed out in the coming weeks, but it was good to see Bliss playing chess, constantly trying to figure out ways to protect her title when the odds are stacked against her.
