A lot of people said she stole Bray's gimmick when she started this anyway, now he has passed, I think there might be quite a bit of backlash
Warranted, no. Of course not. But that doesn't mean it wouldn't happen and it is hard enough being a female public figure already

Naturally, she's the one they attacked, though, even though she had no say in the matter.

Absolutely not. Outside of Lucha Underground every spooky character ever has been absolutely garbage.
That said I really don't want her Harley Quinn inspired character back either.

It's hard to know what to do with her when she does return, face Alexa had zero personality, we dont need another mean girl character,the spooky stuff should rest for a while and crazy Alexa is another trope that has been done to death. She can't be a white meat face either so she needs something fresh and new to get her back into things, ideally as a heel. A tiffany Alexa partnership would be interesting with Alexa being her mentor.

Given how mentally checked out she seemed before she went on maternity leave, I dunno how much longer she'll be around if/when she does return.

The matches were pretty bad, too, and I'm someone who's always thought she's better in the ring than she's given credit for, especially as a face. At least we got her breaking the vase over Bianca's head, though. That was funny.

For such a pretty, Disney looking girl, it’s surprising she never had a true baby face run.
She was teaming with Nikki and sort of heading that direction, then got abducted by Wyatt. And then she just kind of floated around waiting for Bray to come back. And then she was normal Alexa, who was just there for a while, and then she got pregnant

I’m not fussed either way. Honestly, my suggestion is to put her and Cross back together. It’s a team for that division that at least has some history and some chemistry, plus it’ll ease the workload on Bliss easing her way back in after having a baby. I enjoyed that pairing far more than I expected That was the only time I really enjoyed watching either Alexa OR Nikki, and I enjoyed it a lot. Mean Girl Alexa warming up to Nikki over time, a Nikki that actually wanted to be her friend rather than idolizing her or looking for prestige by association, and eventually returning the friendship... what a novel (for wrestling), intelligent, mature storyline that was. I wonder which writer that clearly wasn't Heyman, Vince, or a Vince crony came up with it.

I don't mind spooky Alexa returning, provided she isn't booked as some sort of monster in the ring like she was last time. She buried the absolute hell out of Asuka at the time, and pretty much destroyed any credibility she (Asuka) had. I think it was pretty telling Asuka was massively floundering after that feud, until she lost the title to Rhea.

Cancer scare around that time, strange booking, reverting back to spooky and having to be out of it in the build, and not being completely into it was not a good recipe for her. I remember her and Iyo working well together.

Absolutely not. Outside of Lucha Underground every spooky character ever has been absolutely garbage. And not counting the booking stuff they did to him as by popularity he was working...and related to this thread...

God know she tried her best but it sucked. Give me 2016-2018 Alexa Bliss.

It kinda didn't work without Bray, the Lilly doll was over but... other than that she still wrestled mostly the same.

I think it was pretty telling Asuka was massively floundering after that feud, until she lost the title to Rhea. I get them using Asuka here because she was the only one with any credibility for it to be like "Wow, if this is rattling even HER, this is some freaky shit". And then they drop it pretty much straight away. Like, the next thing was the Rumble, and Bliss kinda starts going into that state, but she just gets chucked out before it finishes.

Yes, but modified so it's not Wyatt-copycat-esque.
When she was active she was the best actress they had. If anything she can be a manager and have her own stable, and only get involved when the story requires it. Manage those witch ladies, and Nikkeh!
Just PLEASE not the Goddess Disney shit.
