Oh, we’re going there ladies and gents.

If you thought Shayna Baszler’s turn on Raw couldn’t get any worse, you would be sorely mistaken. After jobbing to pyro and a rollup for the third consecutive week, Baszler attacked Reginald during an appearance on Alexa’s Playground, then sat down to join Alexa Bliss. Baszler told Alexa that she was “becoming a big problem” and then said that before things get out of hand, the two needed to have a chat… next week.

Then, just to sink things even lower, Shayna knelt down next to Bliss and stared at Lilly and said, “You’re just a stupid doll.” This sent Alexa into a seething anger as the scene ended. So it’s pretty obvious that Baszler is going to be the sacrificial lamb to Bliss and her “supernatural” powers via her doll.

Yep, MMA fighter and can’t-miss brawler Shayna Baszler is now feuding with a doll. If Ronda Rousey wasn’t already out for another year due to becoming pregnant, this would be enough to keep her away from WWE in perpetuity.
