Alexa Bliss challenged Charlotte Flair for the Raw Women’s Championship at Extreme Rules, with many fans were anticipating a title change due to Bliss being in her hometown. However, Bliss would not only lose but was also left laying, with her doll Lilly destroyed at the hands of Flair. While Bliss would manage to get back to her feet, she would be scream as she held the remains of Lilly, and the fans gave a “thank you, Lilly” chant.
The match’s aftermath certainly appeared like a way to write off Bliss’ demonic character, and Wrestling Inc has now reported that Bliss is set to take a break from the company. Exactly how long she will be gone hasn’t been confirmed, but it is anticipated to be months rather than weeks. Additionally, with Lilly being destroyed, there is bound to be speculation on whether Bliss returns with her current sinister gimmick adopted from Bray Wyatt or returns as a more serious competitor.
What Bliss intends to do with her time away from WWE isn’t known. Although after getting engaged last year to musician Ryan Cabrera she may use the time off to plan their wedding. In the past, getting time off from WWE was an arduous task, although in recent years, management’s status has mellowed, and it’s not unusual for talent to take a break to recharge and allow injuries to heal.
