#3 Alexa Bliss

In the modern world of pro wrestling, there's barely a Superstar who hasn't faced the wrath of fans. Alexa Bliss is no different, who received severe criticism when she moved to WWE's main roster in 2016 without having a significant run on NXT.

She proved her haters wrong and won multiple championships, most recently holding the WWE Women's Tag Team titles with Nikki Cross.

However, that's not the only hurdle Miss Five Feet of Fury has had to overcome in her WWE career. Back in October 2018, Alexa Bliss had taken time off due to a concussion she suffered following her match against Ronda Rousey at Hell in a Cell. She was only able to return to in-ring competition in the next summer.

Little Miss Bliss mentioned in a recent interview with BT Sport how she was concerned that she would never be able to return again.

“I was afraid that I wasn’t [going to] be able to get in the ring again because it was nine months that I wasn’t in the ring [for] just over a couple of hits to the head."

The Goddess thankfully overcame her injury troubles and is now a regular competitor on WWE TV.
