Even just swapping brands might help.
RAW you have Bianca, the champ, Becky, arguably the biggest female star they've ever had, Asuka who is, well, Asuka, plus Bayley and her group who are being established.
She's like, 6/7th priority there, a change of scenery where they can give her a bit more attention wouldn't be the worst idea.

It’s only Morgan, Rodriguez and Aliyah there. |

Creatively it feels like there really isn't much left for her. She's been a face. She's been a heel. She's had several gimmick repackagings. And she's never been a strong worker where she can get by on being able to always have good matches like the 4HW who are about equal to her in tenure. However she's still valuable and makes too much money for them to release her so she is where she is now. It does feel like at least she finally has some direction and purpose now with her being involved in main women's storyline on Raw now. However even with that it's very like she wasn't planned to be involved and only got the spot due to Becky getting injured. If Becky doesn't get hurt she's likely still aimless and alternating between beating Doudrop and Nikki A.S.H every week. her face runs were kinda odd in a way. during the pandemic face run with nikki i don;t think she ever actually had any sort of singles feud and very few if any actual singles matches. it was always ehr and nikki tagging. now she's finally getting signles matches but nothing in the way of a feud until now. and as part of a group. she's also never had a face run or even chase for any of the women's titles as a face so there's still something they can do with an alexa face run. she mentioned it recently a couple of times and now she's allied with the champ. i did notice no lily this week so maybe that's a sign she's going to treated more seriously than "possibly unhinged lady still clutching her security doll while trying to act normally" but smackdown would definitely be a better place for her. you have raquel "i smile and have back muscles" rodriguez, aliyah and (for the moment) liv on the face side and that's basically it. |

Bliss and a face Shotzi would have some fun segments together. |

Step 1: Give her a new theme song for the love of god Absolutely this. ‘Stand up, shut up and fight me’ has never been Alexa’s character, literally ever. Stupid, awful theme that reminds me of that horrible ‘Breakout’ shit they gave Nikki Cross a while back. |

SD is just a mess right now as they have like almost no faces and while they plenty of heels numbers wise none of them are very interesting. Not counting Charlotte who obviously is already super made the only one who I think has a higher ceiling is Sonya and they book her like crap. I also don't know where Alexa fits in there either. Feuding with any of the heels there won't be worth her while as like I said they are all lacking a lot in charisma or just aren't priorities at all. I think her and Lacey Evans as a program could work but now she's MIA again for some reason. You could turn her heel and feud with Liv but then what would go against the purpose of why you would send her there (they need faces). |

Stupid, awful theme that reminds me of that horrible ‘Breakout’ shit they gave Nikki Cross a while back. That's exactly who I thought of when I heard Alexa's theme for the first time. Also, Liv Morgan's theme song sounds more like something happy Alexa would come out to than what she has now. The first time I heard it, with the laugh in the beginning, I legit thought it was Alexa. |

She’s got one of the classic WWE women’s gimmicks. Being blonde.
What else can they do?

Pretty sure Alexa's role right now is just to eat the pin in the six woman tag match at Clash, and probably in the tournament as well. Maybe a move to Smackdown will help, but no idea how much it would actually help.
She's getting roughly half of what she wants right now though, as she's talked about how she wanted to tag with Asuka for awhile. Probably won't last beyond Extreme Rules though, unless they decide to do a War Games match this year at Survivor Series (please do that instead of an elimination match).

Honestly, Alexa is at the point where leaving WWE would be the only thing I could think of that could freshen her career up. But of course, that would be asking her to leave where the money is, so that's probably not realistic.
Maybe have her go down to NXT to win the only title that eluded her in her time in WWE, but Mandy Rose is currently holding the niche of main roster transplant holding the title, and it would be hollow if it was another main roster woman that beat her instead of the litany of young talent there.

Me and mj0mn0m after reading all of the hate over Alexa's new theme: My most unpopular take right now is that I don't mind her new theme. The chorus gets stuck in my head. STAND UP, SHUT UP, AND FIGHT MAAAAAAAAAAAAAY! |
