2016's Suicide Squad may have been hit by mixed reviews by critics, but the DC film was unquestionably a box office smash, thanks in part to Margot Robbie's portrayal of Harley Quinn. The first live-action adaptation of the character on the big screen, Robbie's portrayal was a hit, and gave inspiration to WWE's very own petite powerhouse: Alexa Bliss.

After joining the SmackDown Live roster in the 2016 Brand Extension, Bliss debuted a Harley-esque look at the blue brand's first Pay Per View Backlash, where she competed for the SmackDown Women's title. With her hair dyed and in pigtails, even the commentary team compared Bliss to the iconic Batman villain, and though she wouldn't win the gold that night, Bliss would become the second-ever SmackDown Women's Champion a few months later at TLC.
