The Mixed Match Challenge is in the quarter-final stage, currently. All the six first-round matches are done crowning the participants for the second stage.
Already, the first two matches have been done in this round who went on to the semi-final round. The team of Alexa Bliss-Braun Strowman and The Miz-Asuka headed one step closer to become the winners of this contest who will receive 1,00,000 dollar as the prize money.
This week’s matchup witnessed Team Little Big defeating Jimmy Uso-Naomi in quite an interesting matchup. Ever since Braun Strowman and Alexa Bliss were paired up in this league, they delivered us quite entertaining segments. It grew the popularity of their team to a whole new level.
It started back in the first round match where the current WWE Raw women’s champion noted her partner is kind of a cute person. The behemoth from the WWE Raw roster also responded saying Miss Bliss is cute, too. It left us wondering whether there’s something brewing between these two.

This continued on the social media as well as on this week’s show. Naomi pushed Alexa Bliss twice from the ring apron. But, Strowman was standing right behind her to catch in the mid-air to save her from a bad landing. That awkward moment continued for a couple of times fuelling up the speculations about a romantic development for them.
So, this issue was addressed in an interview on WWE.com by Dasha Fuentes. The host asked these two about the ongoing rumours when the monster among men stated something is going on between them, as the teammates and nothing more. Check out the exact comments from him, (courtesy stillrealtous.com)
“We’re going all the way. In the Mixed Match Challenge that is. “Yeah, there’s something going on between us. We’re teammates. That’s what teammates do. They gel, they mesh. They go out there, they work as one, as a unit, and that’s what we just did tonight as a team.”
There’s a good chance that Alexa Bliss and Braun Strowman will end up winning the Mixed Match Challenge. They are going pretty strong at this moment. With this team continuing their winning streak, it is evident; we will see more of these awkward moments between them.
