"My personality, and my knowledge of the business, just telling [Triple H] about how my family loved WWE growing up, and I got a call, and then I made it to the next round of the trial. And I was like, 'cool', it was like a 30-day trial in L.A.
"I was like, "Awesome! it's gonna be so cool!" And then, a week later, I got a call saying, "You're not going to trial", dreams crushed! And then I was told, "Instead, you're gonna be signed, and we're hoping you're as athletic as you look."
Following a three-year stint in WWE NXT, Bliss was promoted to the main roster in July 2016. She scored her first victory on the main roster by defeating current RAW Women's Champion Becky Lynch. Bliss has won the Women's title on five different occasions. Sports Illustrated ranked Bliss #6 in the Top 10 female singles wrestlers of 2018.

He completed his MBA from the Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management in 2016 and worked with multiple banking institutions, including Tech Mahindra. While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.
Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
