WWE: Alexa Bliss Shares An Absolutely Fire Video Of Her Training

Alexa Bliss has been hard at work training in the WWE’s Performance Center for the best year of her career in the ring, and, based on the video she shared to Twitter today, it’s safe to say that wrestling fans should be excited to see her upcoming work.

Ever since being drafted to the WWE main roster in 2016 during the brand split, Alexa Bliss has been a critical part of the show, whether on Raw or SmackDown. Just months into her main roster career, Bliss won the SmackDown Women’s Championship in a Tables match against Becky Lynch, who is now the biggest star in wrestling.

Bliss is one of WWE’s best talkers, as evidenced by her new talk show “Moment of Bliss”, and has achieved a great deal of kayfabe success with three Raw Women’s Championships and two SmackDown Women’s Championships to her name. Last year, Bliss became the second woman to win the Money in the Bank briefcase, cashing in her title opportunity later that night on Nia Jax to interrupt the Facebreaker’s title match against “rookie” Ronda Rousey.

Since recovering from concussions last fall, Bliss has been hard at work in WWE’s Performance Center, adding more to her game. An accomplished athlete, Bliss went to worlds as a cheerleader and obtained a pro card in bodybuilding. As a babyface, her in-ring work featured plenty of flips and high-level skills, and she even used a Twisted Bliss (formerly the Sparkle Splash) off the top of the Elimination Chamber pod in her successful title defense in the first Women’s EC match last year.

Today, Bliss shared the above video of her work with legendary wrestling promoter, trainer, and competitor Mike Quackenbush, whose invaluable insights can also be gleaned from his podcast “Kayfabe 2.0”.

While Bliss has always been a capable wrestler, the timing and difficulty of the moves in the above video are simply out-of-this-world good. Fans responded with glowingly positive tweets, and it seems like we are all excited to see how Bliss’s in-ring work progresses in 2019.

After dealing with concussion issues that WWE took extremely seriously, Bliss made her in-ring return at this year’s Royal Rumble (her first Rumble, as she was the Raw Women’s Champion in January 2018) to a huge pop. Bliss also had a few matches on Raw where she impressed, showing glimpses of her new, flashy in-ring style.

The whole babyface/heel thing is slowly dying off in WWE, but if I had to classify Bliss as one or the other, she’s be on the “face” side of things right now. We can expect to see a whole different side of Bliss this year, and that short clip of her “fire” moves with Quackenbush is yet another sign of great things to come.
