WWE Superstar Alexa Bliss reveals who suggested her iconic championship pose

During an interview with BT Sport, Alexa Bliss revealed that her famous championship pose was inspired by a current AEW wrestler.

Bliss has held the Raw Women's Championship three times, the SmackDown Women's Championship twice, and the WWE Women's Tag Team titles three times since joining the main roster. As one of the most decorated women's wrestlers on the WWE roster, she is used to holding championship belts and even has her own signature belt pose, holding the gold beside her head.

In an interview with BT Sport, the former WWE Women's Tag Team Champion was asked how the idea of her championship pose came to her. Alexa revealed that it was former WWE Superstar Buddy Matthews who suggested that she do the pose.

"So Murphy came up with that. Because I wore the tutus with the belt when I was doing the Harley Quinn thing, he was like ‘you should hold it like this’, so I was holding my belts and stuff like that. And so then once I won the title, I held the title like that, because I was thinking ‘what’s going to show the title plus show my face on camera and make (them) a close as possible?’" Alexa said. (H/T WrestleTalk).

Prior to her WWE main roster call-up in 2016, Bliss worked on NXT with Matthews and Westin (Wesley) Blake. Bliss and Matthews were previously engaged, but their relationship ended in September 2018. The two are still friends.
