#1 Alexa Bliss’ magic on WWE RAW

Alexa Bliss was set to appear on WWE RAW this week and also compete against Asuka in a non-title match. Bliss hosted The Empress of Tomorrow in Alexa’s Playground and also announced that she would enter the Women’s Royal Rumble match.

While Asuka tried to play nice with Bliss, The Goddess scared her enough into walking away. Later in the night, the WWE RAW Women’s Champion came out for her first singles match since early December. Bliss too competed in her first match since late November and tried to fit into her new role in the ring perfectly.

Asuka managed to get some offense in early on, before the lights went out and it seemed like The Fiend possessed Bliss’ body once they came back on. Bliss performed The Fiend’s signature moves before hitting the RAW Women’s Champion with Sister Abigail to pick up a huge victory.

The match was decent and gave Bliss a chance to rise above the rest. She could potentially become the next contender to the RAW Women’s Championship, and it’ll be interesting to watch if she stays at the forefront once The Fiend returns.
