Alexa Bliss Talks to ESPN About Developing Her Heel Persona

Posted By: Caylon Knox on Dec 10, 2017

WWE Monday Night Raw Women's Champion Alexa Bliss recently spoke to ESPN about developing her on-screen persona:

"So I was at the airport and this little kid would not go through security and just threw a fit in the middle of the floor and did the whole thing with shaking his legs and arms. His parents were just standing there looking like, 'We don't know what to do!'"

"They were annoyed, and I was like, 'Man, that's a really bratty thing to do and I'm going to do it.'"

Alexa also talked about changing her character in NXT from a babyface to a heel:

"When I first joined with Buddy Murphy, I had to make a character change," said Bliss. "I wasn't confident in myself about that at all, but I remember my mom telling me that once something clicks with me ... I had to ... come in and kick the door down and let everyone know who I am."

"When it comes to the Alexa Bliss character, everyone says the character has to be an extension of yourself turned up. But I feel like I am the complete opposite of Alexa Bliss. When I came up with the Alexa Bliss character, I wanted to be the girl that everyone knew. There was always that girl in high school who was mean to everybody. She was mean and rude but everyone still voted for her to be homecoming queen. That girl. And I wanted to portray that girl. Because I knew that girl in high school. I knew girls like that."

"I got a lot of motivation from my character of people-watching," she said. "And if they do something that annoys me, I steal it and do it because I know it annoys other people. If it annoys me, it's going to annoy you."
