She should’ve been wearing some sort of mask and looked like a complete freak. Not just change her face a little and eyeshadow

A dark enemy to defeat,
A foe for a fan favourite,
A spectacle for all to see,
A tiresome, classic WWE that's so old. The attitude era was supposed to do away with such simplified angles, yet they continue to this day.

Full disclosure, I don't watch the product and most of my knowledge comes from like social media feeds so take what I say with a grain of salt, but that's terrible booking. First off, I like, at least in concept again I don't watch, what they're doing/trying with Alexa Bliss. Kane was the biggest reason I got into wrestling, I like supernatural elements in my stories, so the of Alexa Bliss being able to harness like Bray Wyatt's split-personality to get some power-up, cool. I'm for that. BUT A, actually commit to it. I've seen the before and after pictures, and it just looks like a palette swap. Like this is just the Alexa Bliss you get as player 2 in an old-school Nintendo platformer. Bray Wyatt and The Fiend have drastically different appearances, give Alexa Bliss a drastically different appearance, it doesn't and shouldn't just be female Fiend, but do something besides darker colours. Embrace the gimmick. The fact that they didn't do anything drastic, makes this feel all the more bs.

And Dos, don't debut this against Asuka. Don't make Asuka freak out because Alexa Bliss does the whole upside down look thing. It's not very character consistent with the bad-ass Asuka I remember, it's not a good look for a champion, let alone a double one, and she deserves better. Like, I know about this because everyone's complaining about how Asuka's being handled, and maybe that's because my feeds are usually pro-Asuka to begin with but the most positive takeaway from this I've heard is "They shouldn't be doing this against Asuka". If they're going to run this gimmick, Asuka should be like, the one finally toppling Alexa. Not that I think Alexa should be champion anyway but Asuka shouldn't be used to established the powers of Bliss, certainly not when she's also champion. Because even disregarding my favouritism, that's just going to drain excitement from many potential match-ups. Why would I care about Alexa Bliss vs. 90% of the roster when she can beat the double champion so easily. And I know it wasn't a squash btw but from what I witness Bliss no-sold a lot of Asuka's offense and didn't look worse for wear at all when the bell rang.

I think supernatural wrestling is dumb and has no place in wrestling
