She had previously lost a Raw Women\u2019s Championship match against <strong>Bianca Belair<\/strong> at the <em><strong>2023 Royal Rumble<\/strong><\/em> PLE and has been off-air for 16 months thereafter.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During this time, she faced the unfortunate diagnosis of skin cancer but has since recovered. Bliss announced her pregnancy shortly after, with her husband <strong>Ryan Cabrera<\/strong>, and\u00a0in December of last year, the couple welcomed their baby into the world.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As anticipation grows for her return to the spotlight, let&#8217;s explore three possible directions for Bliss upon her comeback.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Alexa Bliss Joins The Wyatt Sicks<\/h3>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Fiend &amp; Alexa Bliss arrive on Raw: Raw, Oct. 12, 2020\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/epMkylI098o?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fans theorized Bliss&#8217; involvement in the <strong>Wyatt Sicks<\/strong> even before their debut after scanning the initial QR code. The code revealed the acronym &#8220;UEDNJ51A,&#8221; with each letter believed to correspond to a member of the stable: U for <strong>Uncle Howdy<\/strong>, E for <strong>Erick Rowan<\/strong>, D for <strong>Dexter Lumis<\/strong>, N for <strong>Nikki Cross<\/strong>, and J for <strong>Joe Jacy<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Combining the five and one would result in six. Additionally, A stands for Alexa Bliss.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Given her partnership with <strong>Bray Wyatt<\/strong> from 2020-2021, it wouldn&#8217;t be surprising if Bliss joined forces with the Wyatt Sicks. Throughout various instances, we have witnessed Bliss embrace her eerie persona with or without \u201cThe Fiend\u201d by her side.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The last time we saw Bliss, she reverted to her previous sinister behavior during a feud with Belair. The cause of this change in behavior was Uncle Howdy himself.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By joining the Wyatt Sicks, Bliss would also rekindle her relationship with former tag team partner Cross. The pair won the WWE Women\u2019s Tag Team Championship titles on two different occasions before their breakup in 2020.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> With several connections to this group, it is highly likely that Bliss will be revealed as the sixth and final member.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Alexa Bliss Fights Former Friend Nikki Cross<\/h3>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Alexa Bliss vs. Nikki Cross: Raw, Feb. 1, 2021\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/npfEo4pgQYw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While Bliss might join the Wyatt Sicks, it is also possible that she makes her return to <em><strong>Raw<\/strong><\/em> to fight off Cross. The Wyatt Sicks made an impact last <em>Raw<\/em> by attacking several members of the roster.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A strong babyface is needed to combat the <strong>Sister Abigail<\/strong> persona, and there is no one more suitable to do this besides Bliss.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bliss and Cross were the best of friends but that all changed when \u201cThe Fiend\u201d Bray Wyatt began influencing the Goddess. Cross asked Bliss to choose between her and The Fiend, and she cheerfully chose the latter, effectively dumping Cross. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Abandonment from Bliss sent Cross on a bumpy path, where she reinvented herself several times. Her quick rise to championship gold as <strong>Nikki A.S.H.<\/strong> fell off just as quickly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">New partnerships with <strong>Rhea Ripley<\/strong> and <strong>Doudrop<\/strong> did not match up to her and Bliss&#8217; relationship either. From there, Nikki A.S.H. returned to her crazy persona as Nikki Cross and floundered on the roster for another year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Storyline-wise, Cross has every reason to blame Bliss for her lack of success after their breakup. She might still hold a grudge all these years later.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Alexa Bliss Returns as The Goddess<\/h3>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/fhGEuDaJwiE?si=AMVD_SXif5CVJLA8\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The final most likely storyline for Bliss once she returns is the comeback of \u201cThe Goddess.\u201d This would be a welcome change of pace since we have not seen Bliss dominate with her heel \u201cGoddess\u201d persona since 2018.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a heel, she won the SmackDown Women\u2019s Championship twice and the Raw Women\u2019s Championship three times. Since losing the <em>Raw<\/em> title to <strong>Ronda Rousey<\/strong> at <em><strong>SummerSlam<\/strong><\/em> in 2018, Bliss has yet to capture singles gold again.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For fans yearning to see her at the top of the division upon her return, the return of \u201cThe Goddess\u201d might be essential. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em><strong>SmackDown<\/strong><\/em> would be the ideal position for a heel Bliss to compete on, with <strong>Bayley<\/strong> as the champion of the blue brand.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bayley needs competition, and Bliss has no shortage of bad blood with the Role Model. The return of arguably her best character would no doubt be an exciting way to come back to <strong>WWE<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>More From LWOS Pro Wrestling<\/h3>\n<p><em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Header photo \u2013 WWE \u2013 Stay tuned to the\u00a0<\/span><\/em><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\"><em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Last Word on Pro Wrestling<\/span><\/em><\/a><em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0for more on this and other stories from around the world of wrestling, as they develop.
