7 Ups & 7 Downs From WWE Raw (Sept 13)

6. Still Not Buying It

For whatever reason, the fans seemed into Alexa Bliss and Lilly, but it’s just a strange situation all the way around.

Feuding over the Raw Women’s Championship, you have Bliss, who has dialled back some of the spooky stuff lately, but still parades around with her magical doll. She isn’t really a babyface, but fans generally like her by default, so it’s tough to call her a heel. And Charlotte Flair very clearly has been a heel for a while now, though she has been fighting heels in recent weeks and is wrestling like a babyface at times.

So who are we supposed to cheer? Is Bliss planning to use hypnosis to take Flair down? Will Charlotte disposing of Charlie (the blond doll Alexa gave her as a present) factor into things?

These aren’t exactly the kind of questions that inspire you to get invested in a feud.
