Alexa Bliss thinks holding titles in WWE is great, but there's a hidden downside that almost wrecks the entire experience.

She told Maria Menounos’ podcast that it's a constant pain to cart heavy championship belts around when you're travelling so much. In fact, Alexa added, it's downright "embarrassing" when workers go through TSA and "it lights your bag up like a Christmas tree".

Then, of course, airport security staff want to pose with the title and show everyone who passes by.

Bliss did also say that this is a small price to pay for being successful, but it can be mortifying when wrestlers just want to get travel over and done with. Plus, some titles are "bulkier" than others, and that can cause other problems.

When Alexa was Raw or SmackDown Women's Champ (she didn't specify, but did say that the singles titles are more cumbersome than the tag ones), she couldn't even fit it into her bag or an overhead locker on the plane.

So, she had to sit there with the thing on her lap for the entire flight. At least everyone knew she was champion...
