Alexa Bliss recently spoke to Byron Saxton for an interview with WWE.com. During the interview she explained why she decided to break away from Blake and Murphy, her plans for the future and more. You can check out the full interview here along with some highlights below.
Why she decided to break way from Blake & Murphy:
After a while, I felt I was being taken for granted. Blake & Murphy didn’t seem to appreciate who I was and what I was doing for them. After losing the NXT Tag Team Championship, they went on a long losing streak. They needed me, yet just used me as an accessory. I was the third member of that team, not just a piece of arm candy. Blake & Murphy stopped utilizing me and stopped appreciating what I could do for our group. I did everything in my power to give those boys opportunities to win in their matches.
Why she’s better off on her own:
Do you remember the NXT episode where I wasn’t ringside with them? The fans weren’t chanting, “Let’s go Blake, let’s go Murphy.” They chanted, “Where’s Alexa?” I always knew I was the star of the group, but the crowd confirmed it. At that moment I realized that if they didn’t start winning, I needed to make a drastic change in order to achieve my goals and my dreams. After all, it really is all about me at this point in my career.
Her future in NXT:
“I was built from the ground up by NXT. I am what they designed the future to look like. I am what everyone strives to be. I was made to be Women’s Champion. I am the future, and I am here to take what is rightfully mine. Should they be concerned? No, no, no … they should be terrified!”
