What is a Goddess without someone by her side, to worship her? WWE has attempted a coalition between Mickie James and Alexa Bliss in the past, but now both women are on two different brands.
While it is always possible for Mickie James to come over to RAW as a part of the Wild Card rule, it just dilutes the brand split in my opinion. Moreover, Mickie James hasn't even received a minute of screen time on SmackDown Live since the brand split, meaning that her brand has fallen.
This is why WWE may have decided to pair Nikki Cross, who's much younger and has a lot of potential to succeed, with Alexa Bliss. To an extent, WWE even attempted a pairing between Bliss and Alicia Fox for a while but it wasn't really a success.
I wonder how the Bliss and Cross pairing will be received.
