WWE has moved into the PG era for quite a long time now. We don’t see any violent products on either of WWE Raw and Smackdown Live. Vince McMahon remained quite strict about the entire WWE programming being a family-friendly environment. This is what grabs more audience all around the world. No wonder why this company has become a global brand.
This is indeed a good strategy to reach every corner of the world where people with different taste can enjoy it. However, the USA based sports entertainment program has built major rivals over the years. Companies like Impact Wrestling, Lucha Underground, Ring of Honor and New Japan Pro Wrestling do bring out A-rated segments on a regular basis.

This garners more attention from the crowd and views on social media, as well. With the competition being an all-time high, WWE Raw may have been forced to air some of those adultery segments. Alexa Bliss appeared topless on the flagship show that is one of the rarest in this new era.
This shocked the pro-wrestling industry by all means. If that was not enough then WWE also broadcasted another such segment with Mandy Rose on the very next day. But primarily, it was that Alexa Bliss clip that received almost 7 million views i.e. the top-most view from WWE Raw programming. So who was the mastermind behind this segment?
Ringsidenews.com is reporting via Ryan Satin on Wrestling Sheet Radio that Alexa Bliss herself was the innovator of this much-talked portion. Most of the fans thought that it was the writers who inserted this segment on WWE Raw. But actually, Alexa Bliss herself wanted to do something different with her character. Here’s what the source stated,
“Okay, from what I’ve been told the segment was Alexa’s idea. It was an Alexa thing… she was trying to do a little bit of a tribute to Trish Stratus because it was something Trish Stratus did back in the day […] She’s a big Trish Stratus fan.”
As you can see, Alexa Bliss wanted to pay homage to her idol, Trish Stratus. She was about to face the legend at Evolution in a one-on-one dream contest that never happened. So it was her way to channel the inner Trish of herself in a dignified manner. So for those who were wondering that Alexa Bliss did this forcefully, it is not that at all,
“It was something she wanted to do. It was not a thing that was pushed on her.”
