It’s been a while since fans have seen Alexa Bliss on WWE programming as she last competed when she challenged Bianca Belair for the Raw Women’s Championship at the Royal Rumble back in January. Bliss definitely won’t be returning anytime soon as she’s currently pregnant with a child that is expected to be born in December.
When it’s all said and done Alexa Bliss will likely be out of action for over a year, but she recently explained to The Messenger why she thinks time away from WWE is a good thing.
“Time away and reinventing a character, and evolving yourself is the key to career longevity at WWE. So I always say time away is such a good thing because it gives people the time to miss you. When you’re being seen on WWE [TV] three or four times an episode, you don’t really have anywhere to go with your character. So whenever you take time off, it’s always a good time to evolve and to keep going.”
When it comes to making a return to WWE programming Alexa Bliss noted that she is going to take a few months to focus on her child after the baby is born before she starts making an effort to get back in the ring.
“I probably won’t bounce back as fast as I hope. I’m going to get to working out and doing all that stuff and get to where I need to be, you know, to have time. [I’ll have] the first fundamental months with the baby before thinking about trying to rush back to work.”
