Major WWE star will return in early 2025 after 2 years of absence; heel turn expected, says Francine

A top WWE Superstar has been absent for almost two years. Wrestling veteran Francine recently predicted the mentioned competitor will return in early 2025.

Alexa Bliss last competed in January 2023 when she lost to Bianca Belair in a RAW Women's Championship match at Royal Rumble. She later went on maternity leave. The Goddess gave birth to her first child in November of last year. While rumors suggested the 33-year-old would return to join the Wyatt Sicks after the group debuted earlier this year, that never happened.

Speaking on her Eyes Up Here podcast, Francine predicted that Bliss will make her long-anticipated comeback in the early part of 2025. The former WWE star claimed that although the former RAW Women's Champion would initially return as a babyface, the 33-year-old would soon turn heel.

"So we have not seen Alexa Bliss yet, correct? Okay, I predict that she's gonna come back in 2025; early part of the year. I feel like she's gonna get so over. She's gonna be so over with the crowd, but she's gonna turn, and she's gonna be a heel," she said.

The ECW legend said that she still believes Bliss will work in a program with the Wyatt Sicks, whether by joining Uncle Howdy's group or having a rivalry with them.

"And I still think that she's gonna... are they still pushing the [Wyatt] Sicks gimmick? I still say that she's gonna do something with them; I have a feeling. Anytime somebody's gone for an extensive amount of time, you're gonna get a babyface reaction. But I don't think they're gonna keep her as a babyface. I think she's gonna come back as a heel. That's the way I wanna see her come back. So, maybe she'll have something to do whether she's a part of their troop or whether she's like a rival to them, I don't know," she added. [7:37-8:46]
