#1 Alexa Bliss

The inspiration for this article came from a 2018 episode of WWE Network show ‘Table for 3’ featuring Alexa Bliss, Lita, and Trish Stratus.

Bliss recalled the early days of her transition from the world of fitness competitions to the wrestling world, which involved her having to send in an audition tape to apply to be a WWE Superstar in 2013.

Introducing herself as “Baby Swag”, Bliss cut a promo on her future opponents, warning them that there will be a “serious throwdown” if they try to mess with her.

“Baby Swag is fun, bubbly, flirty, always trying to be the centre of attention, but can turn feisty just like that [clicks fingers]. So, if any Diva tries to mess with or tries to take the spotlight from Baby Swag, there will be a serious throwdown.”

Much to Bliss’ surprise, she ended up getting signed by WWE in May 2013 and she has been part of the company ever since.

Her career highlights so far have included her five Women’s Championship reigns (RAW Women’s Champion x3, SmackDown Women’s Champion x2), as well as her Women’s Tag Team Championship triumph with Nikki Cross. She also hosted WrestleMania 35 earlier in 2019.
