That dreadful 'This Is Your Life' segment aside, Alexa Bliss has been awesome since hitting the WWE main roster. Her move from SmackDown to Raw represented another rung on the ladder scaled, although there were worries that WWE would strip the Raw Women's Title from her after such a terrible segment last week.

Extreme Rules put those fears to bed, because Bliss was booked to beat Bayley and hold onto her title. That's a good thing too, because losing the thing in a 'Kendo Stick On A Pole' match would be hard to live down. What did the WWE creative team think this was? WCW Uncensored?

Alexa needs continued faith from management if she's going to continue getting better. Dropping the title to Bayley would have been disastrous for her development, so it's great to see those in charge stick by her. Never book another 'This Is Your Life' skit again though, please.
