Alexa Bliss is currently in the same boat as Charlotte Flair, where she's just been relegated to the background while the title picture features the Champion of their respective brands engaged in a feud with someone else. Even though we love Alexa Bliss as a babyface, I have to admit that there's just something special about heel Alexa Bliss. That is a role that she thrives in, which is strange because, by all accounts, she's a great person in real life.

So, maybe after Bayley is done with Lacey Evans, she will need a brand new babyface to tussle with, and Nikki Cross could be the woman who can enter into this role and become her next challenger. But to get her over as a babyface, a mini-feud with Alexa Bliss may be just what the doctor ordered. Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross could team up during the Royal Rumble match, and when Cross least expects it, Bliss can toss her over the top rope.

An Alexa Bliss heel turn, while not surprising, would certainly help Cross' career in a big way, in my opinion.
