8 Ups & 3 Downs From WWE SmackDown (Aug 28)
7. Alexa Bliss Going Heel
That coffee-loving double act thing Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross had going on was horrible despite the fact both are talented. It was sucking the life from them, and those 'A Moment Of Bliss' smile-fests were painful to watch. Alas, there is progress.
Bliss has dreaded part of her hair like the 'Fiend' she claimed to tame, and Nikki doesn't like it. Alexa doesn't care, and smashed up the coffee mug she gifted to Cross last year. Trouble in paradise is a step forwards for this duo, especially if it leads to Bliss turning back into a snot-nosed, conniving little witch.
That's a role she plays well.
The BFF tale needed to end anyway. There's gas in Bliss vs. Cross, and it'd be even better if that then led to Nikki losing her 'SAnitY'. She's in the same boat as her pal - Cross is much more vibrant as a character when she has menace.
