Alexa Bliss On Where She Found The Inspiration For Her Character

Alexa Bliss is the current Raw Women’s Champion, and over the past two years she’s become one of the top stars in the WWE women’s division.

Bliss seems to have it all figured out when it comes to her heel persona, but during a recent interview Detroit News, the Women’s Champion noted that she wasn’t comfortable with playing a bad guy at first.

“Before I was portraying the character Alexa Bliss, I was very shy, very uncomfortable with playing a bad guy or showing any emotion, really. Now when I’m in the ring or doing a speaking segment, I get so wrapped up in the character that I don’t even notice I’m doing it. It’s a natural feeling for me.”

Alexa Bliss has managed to get some major heat from the fans, and it seems that she’s quickly become a pro at figuring out how to piss people off. Which is a good thing in the world of professional wrestling.

William Regal is another wrestler who seems to have mastered the art of getting heat, and Bliss revealed that she took a page out of his book while developing her character.

“He would sit and watch people in airports and out in public and he would study their mannerisms, and he’d say if they bothered him, chances are they’d bother other people. I saw how other people were looking at this child, screaming his head off, kicking and screaming in the store, and the poor mother was just mortified and trying to get her son to stop. I was like, ‘that’s gold. I’m using that.’”

Alexa Blis is set to carry the Raw Women’s Title into WrestleMania this year, but her opponent has yet to be officially announced.
