If it wasn't clear already, Alexa Bliss has her sights set on Roman Reigns and the Universal Championship, which in turn means The Fiend hasn't forgotten about what Reigns did to him. On last week's episode of WWE SmackDown, during her match against Lacey Evans, Alexa Bliss wasn't herself after The Fiend's laugh played in the background.

When she heard The Fiend's laugh on WWE SmackDown, Alexa Bliss turned into someone sadistic and demolished Lacey Evans, forcing the referee to stop the match midway. In the recent weeks, Alexa Bliss has been using The Fiend's Sister Abigail on female Superstars. WWE has suggested a connection between The Fiend and Bliss, but may delve deeper into the storyline in the coming weeks on WWE SmackDown.


#5 Alexa Bliss hosts a Moment Of Bliss with Paul Heyman (w/o Roman Reigns) on WWE SmackDown

Over the years, Alexa Bliss has donned many roles. She has established herself as a great wrestler, manager, and talk show host. Her talk show, A Moment Of Bliss, has been the center of many feuds. Many brawls have broken out during the segment and could be used as a platform to get the Roman Reigns-Fiend feud going.

Alexa Bliss has hosted a plethora of WWE Superstars on the show, such as Bayley, Ronda Rousey, EC3, and many more. In the coming weeks, maybe Alexa Bliss is advertised to host the Special Counsel to The Tribal Chief on her show. The thought of watching Alexa Bliss and Paul Heyman going at it in a war of words is something that can draw fans.

The Fiend gets involved

The show may kick off as another usual interview with Heyman, talking about his alliance with Reigns and what's going on in his mind. While Paul Heyman discusses Roman Reigns' future, the lights go off, and the arena turns red. The Fiend doesn't show up, but Alexa Bliss is possessed and tells Paul Heyman that HE remembers, and HE is coming for what's his.

With Hell In A Cell four weeks away, this can give WWE ample time to build a feud between Roman Reigns and The Fiend. Watching these two trying to settle the score inside the demonic structure is an exciting prospect, and what better time to reignite the feud than on the upcoming episode of WWE SmackDown.

What better way for WWE to delve deeper into Alexa Bliss' alliance with The Fiend than have her host her version of The Firefly Fun House on WWE SmackDown. During a segment when Roman Reigns is in a WWE SmackDown ring, either in a match, or while Paul Heyman is cutting a promo with Reigns by his side, the two are interrupted by the Firefly Fun House theme.

The fans think it's actually happening. Finally, The Fiend will address Roman Reigns taking away the Universal Championship from him. But instead of Bray Wyatt or The Fiend, the WWE Universe and Roman Reigns are greeted by Alexa Bliss, who hosts her very own Fun House.

Alexa Bliss speaks metaphorically, as Bray Wyatt does, and towards the end of the segment, she turns into the Bliss who The Fiend has under his spell. When the segment comes to a close, a confused Roman Reigns and Paul Heyman don't know what to make of the situation as WWE SmackDown comes to a close.

#3 Alexa Bliss is on commentary during a Roman Reigns match and The Fiend's red light hits WWE SmackDown

Alexa Bliss has been on commentary many times in the past and has always been a delight. It won't be out worldly to have her join the WWE SmackDown commentary team, Michael Cole and Corey Graves, at ringside during a Roman Reigns match. She could be herself and call the match while talking about Roman Reigns' return and his heel turn.

After Roman Reigns beats his opponent and stands in the center of the ring with WWE SmackDown's coveted prize raised above his head, the lights go off in the arena, and is hit with The Fiend's red light. Alexa Bliss remains quiet on commentary all the time during this segment, but when the red lights are turned on, she is in the ring pointing at Roman Reigns' and the Universal Championship, signaling that The Fiend is coming for him.

WWE SmackDown comes to a close with that shot and on the next week. Roman Reigns calls The Fiend out, saying that if he has anything to say, to come out and say it to his face and not use a pawn like Bliss.

#2 Alexa Bliss begs Roman Reigns to save her from The Fiend on WWE SmackDown

It isn't clear whether Alexa Bliss is happy to side with The Fiend or whether he is using her without consent. If it's the latter, she could try to find solace in Roman Reigns, begging the Universal Champion to save her from The Fiend.

If WWE wants to turn Roman Reigns face, he could agree to help her, or if WWE still wants to portray him as a heel, he could deny Bliss' request. However, Alexa Bliss can appeal to Paul Heyman, and somehow Heyman convinces Reigns while the Universal Champions is still wary of the situation.

It could turn out that Alexa Bliss was luring Roman Reigns into The Fiend's trap and that she was indeed happy with The Fiend. An enraged Roman Reigns looks to beat down Paul Heyman, but Heyman being the advocate, he convinces Reigns not to, and the two put aside their differences with the sole aim to demolish The Fiend.

#1 Alexa Bliss confronts Bray Wyatt on the Firefly Fun House on WWE SmackDown

Since losing The Universal Championship to Roman Reigns at WWE Payback, the WWE Universe hasn't seen The Fiend. One would think that The Fiend would be filled with rage that Roman Reigns returned after four months to not only blindside The Fiend at WWE SummerSlam but also take away his Universal Championship within a week.

While Roman Reigns had moved on to another feud when Jey Uso was declared his opponent for Clash Of Champions, neither The Fiend not Bray Wyatt has wrestled a match or targetted his next victim. All that Bray Wyatt has done since his loss at Clash Of Champions is host episodes of the Firefly Fun House. It looks like he has lost his steam and needs to be reminded of what the ultimate goal is.

Now that The Fiend somewhat controls Alexa Bliss, maybe she can show up uninvited on an episode of Firefly Fun House on WWE SmackDown. Alexa Bliss talks some sense into Bray Wyatt, reminding him of the times he has been wronged, unleashing The Fiend, who is looking to reclaim his prize on WWE SmackDown.
