6 WWE Superstars who were inspired by movie characters

#2. WWE Superstar Alexa Bliss was inspired by DC’s Harley Quinn

WWE Superstar Alexa Bliss has been one of the most influential female wrestlers of this generation. She has defied all odds to become a top name in the industry.

Over the years, Bliss has played some excellent gimmicks that have impressed her fans. One of her most popular gimmicks was inspired by Harley Quinn of the Suicide Squad.

Bliss has revealed that she is a big comic book fan and loves everything Disney. That is what led her to pick up the character and play a villain on-screen in WWE.

“I’m such a villain fan. I love comics, I love anything Disney – everyone knows that about me, I’m a big Disney fan – anything that’s fictional, I’m a huge fan of... I just like portraying characters but making it my own. The Harley Quinn thing I was really excited about. I was so bummed because when I left NXT, I thought I couldn’t do the cosplay thing anymore... I kind of ran with the Harley Quinn thing, I said I was going to try it anyway and say sorry after [if it didn’t work], but it got a great response and that gave me the freedom to do more,” said Alexa Bliss.

The Harley Quinn character helped Alexa Bliss get a major push in her career. She took inspiration from it and added many layers to it as well.
