For the past several weeks, Alexa Bliss has been showing indications to re-form her alliance with Bray Wyatt on WWE Raw. This week, the teases continued as the top female superstar went into trance, possessed by Wyatt after a long time. Also, she showed us hints of turning into a heel character by targeting the Raw Women’s Champion.
Last week on WWE Raw, Alexa Bliss won a Triple Threat main event match to become one of the top contenders for the championship held by Bianca Belair. DAMAGE CTRL attacked Becky Lynch during that match from last week as Alexa capitalized with a Twisted Bliss on Nikki Cross for the pin-fall victory. Thus, she was booked in a number-one contender’s match against Bayley.
Becky Lynch helped Alexa Bliss to get a win
Moving on to this week’s episode of WWE Raw, Bayley made her way to the ring with DAMAGE CTRL to kick things off but Becky Lynch arrived at ringside to get her revenge. Lynch attacked IYO SKY and Dakota Kai and chased them through the crowd.
WWE Raw Women’s Champion Bianca Belair was at ringside for the match and she managed to distract Bayley in the finishing sequence of the match. Alexa once again capitalized with a Twisted Bliss for the pinfall victory and earn a championship match opportunity against Belair at a later date.

Alexa Bliss acted strangely on Raw after her big win
After the opening match on WWE Raw was over, Bianca Belair congratulated Alexa but Bray Wyatt’s moth logo briefly flashed on the tron. This sent Alexa into a trance as she almost caught Belair with a Sister Abigail finisher. Alexa eventually stopped herself and apologized to end the segment.
Bliss getting a title match against Belair creates an interesting situation as Bliss and Belair acted as a team with Asuka during their feud with DAMAGE CTRL for the past few months. The two sides have also competed in the WarGames Match at the 2022 Survivor Series premium live event.
Bianca Belair commented on Bliss’ behavior
Following the strange behavior of Bliss, Belair was interviewed by Byron Saxton on WWE Raw Talk, this week and said she did not see that coming. While she’s surprised, she’s still ready to compete against her in the near future,
“She showed me a side of her that… I have no words for it. I’m still trying to figure out what that was, is this what is going to be, is this a phase?
We’ll have to see. But at the end of the day, we are competitors. So once we step into the ring there are no friends and I have to remember that.”
