7 unlikely alliances that formed in WWE in 2019

#3 Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross

Bliss and Cross

Currently the WWE Women's Tag Team Champions, Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross are a duo nobody ever expected to see in the WWE.

Alexa Bliss is one of the most talented female wrestlers in WWE. But unfortunately, she suffered a concussion last summer and was seen less often in the ring. WWE did not completely take her off TV while she was healing up, instead they gave her a non-wrestling role for several months.

Bliss was ready to step in the squared circle by WrestleMania 35, but WWE did not let her wrestle and made her the host of the 'Grandest Stage of Them All' earlier this year. Bliss who was once a main event star did not do much after healing up until she crossed paths with the bizarre Nikki Cross.

Nikki Cross made her debut on SmackDown last year against Becky Lynch, and impressed everyone in her first ever match on the main roster. Cross did not do much on the blue brand and moved to RAW during the Superstar Shakeup several months ago.

Finally, Bliss and Cross met on the red brand and gradually formed an unlikely alliance. Despite The Goddess' mean character, she fit in very well with the bizarre Scot.

They went on to face Bayley for the SmackDown Women's title at the Extreme Rules PPV back in July, but failed to capture the title. However, they are now on top of the Women's Tag Team division in WWE after dethroning The IIconics as champions.
