WWE has officially assigned Alexa Bliss to SmackDown. Initially expected to land on RAW, internal discussions led WWE to shift plans, with PWInsider reporting that creative pitches for her on SmackDown gained significant traction.
Possible Connection to The Wyatt Sicks
One of the biggest questions surrounding Bliss’ return is whether she will align with The Wyatt Sicks. WWE initially intended to pair her with the faction, but contract negotiations delayed her comeback, putting those plans on hold. Now that she’s back, there is renewed speculation that WWE may revisit the storyline.
Secretive Royal Rumble Return
Bliss’ return at the Royal Rumble was highly secretive, with WWE finalizing her contract just hours before the event. Even wrestlers in the match were unaware of her involvement until she arrived at the arena in Indianapolis. Despite the secrecy, WWE had been preparing for months, as her merchandise was already in production weeks before the Rumble.
With Bliss now confirmed for SmackDown, she shares the same brand as The Wyatt Sicks, opening up intriguing possibilities for future storylines.
