You know, I hate to say it, but Alexa Bliss is right. She really was the best part of Blake and Murphy. While her two former friends could use a bit more seasoning in NXT, Bliss seems more prepared for a main roster run. It wouldn’t be a terrible idea to leave her in developmental longer, except that WWE is very soon going to need a lot more women wrestlers if they’re serious about having Raw and SmackDown each having their own division.

If you look at the roster right now, here is absolutely every woman who is healthy enough to compete in a match: Alicia Fox, Becky Lynch, Charlotte, Dana Brooke, Paige, Sasha Banks, Summer Rae. Natalya. Oh, and then Eva Marie and Lana. So basically, that leaves eight women between two brands. Four per division?

Since they’re likely not going to coax Sara Del Ray to get in the ring, or call up Trish Stratus for another run, they’re going to have to go with what they got. Alexa has improved in a short amount of time in the ring, and with a bit more experience could be a solid addition to the main roster. The numbers are working in her favor.

As Rust Cohle from True Detective said "Life's barely long enough to get good at one thing. So be careful what you're good at." Sadly, I can't solve a murder like Rust...or change a tire, or even tie a tie. But I do know all the lyrics to Hulk Hogan's "Real American" theme song and can easily name every Natural Born Thriller from the dying days of WCW. I was once ranked 21st in the United States in Tetris...on the Playstation 3 version...for about a week. Follow along @AndrewSoucek and check out my podcast at wrestlingwithfriends.com
