WWE Raw: Results, Highlights, Analysis, and Grades for March 5
By Bryan Heaton
What the Hell is Going on With Alexa and Nia?
Seriously, what is this? Is Nia about to become the biggest babyface in WWE? On what possible planet is “Nia Jax, Super Strong But Super Sensitive” a good idea?
Let’s recap: Nia wants to be Women’s Champion. So to make that dream a reality, she befriends, uh, the Women’s Champion. And Nia and Alexa Bliss kind of run roughshod over the Women’s Division, kind of like Muggsy and Rocky from Looney Tunes.
Eventually, they drift apart, and Alexa replaces Nia with Mickie James – kinda. Nia tries to attain her championship dreams by defeating the unbeatable – Asuka. And she fails – twice.
The second one hurts. Literally. And to make her feel better, Alexa comes in to talk about how no one likes Nia because she’s different, and she’ll probably never actually amount to anything.
Oh, did I say make her feel better? I meant worse. Waaaaaaay worse. Nia starts bawling like someone who just chopped all the onions in the world, and the scene ends.
Seriously – that’s it. I have no idea what the plan is outside of “Bliss vs. Nia at WrestleMania.” But this was an awkward, bad segment.
Braun Strowman, Megadeth Enthusiast
Fun fact: I quoted a Megadeth song in my high school graduation speech. So if anyone is here for Braun Strowman to be the biggest Deth Eater out there, it’s me.
