Ending a long hiatus of more than two years, Alexa Bliss returned to television at the WWE Royal Rumble 2025 premium live event in February, competing in the annual Women’s Royal Rumble match. She has not been fully regular on WWE programming, and that frequent absence could be attributed to her motherhood.
In an update, the WWE Superstar herself admitted that WWE has been great about supporting her as a new parent and bringing her baby on the road with her. For the record, Alexa Bliss and her husband, Ryan Cabrera, welcomed their first child together, a daughter named Hendrix Rouge, on November 27, 2023, which was the reason for her longest absence from WWE TV in the first place.

“I wouldn’t trade it for anything,” Alexa Bliss responded upon being asked about her opinion of being a mother, and further added how WWE has been helpful. “They’ve been so great about bringing her on the road. She’s got her own, like, set up when we go and she loves it. And it’s been great.”
