Alexa Bliss hasn’t appeared in a WWE ring in over two years, with her latest match being at the 2023 Royal Rumble Premium Live Event. Now, the idea of Bliss returning may be finished for good as she and WWE remain nowhere close to a new deal.
According to Wrestling Observer Newsletter’s Dave Meltzer, the situation is looking grim. It was explained that the two sides are so far apart regarding a new deal that “people are talking about not expecting a deal to be made.”
WWE reportedly planned for Bliss to return to Raw on January 13 as part of The Wyatt Sicks storyline. However, when Bliss pushed for a new contract instead of continuing under her existing extension, WWE nixed all plans for her return. The day after she was supposed to return, Bliss erased all WWE references from her social media accounts, signalling issues with the promotion behind the scenes.
Bliss has not publicly addressed the contract situation, but her priorities have been made crystal clear online. This week, Bliss shared a photo of herself and her daughter Hendrix with the caption, “If you need me. I’ll be here. For a while.” The notion that Bliss will be with her daughter “for a while” has continued to leave fans speculating that her current hiatus from WWE shows no signs of ending anytime soon.
Alexa Bliss Eager for WWE Return, but it’s Out of Her Control
Alexa Bliss was once one of WWE’s top female performers with multiple title reigns and a Money in the Bank contract win to her name. Now though, Bliss’ future remains increasingly uncertain as the promotion moves ahead without the ‘Goddess’ around.
