Alexa Bliss was recently a guest on ESPN’s Cheap Heat podcast. During the podcast, she was asked if she feels like she gets the proper credit from fans for her in-ring work. When fans talk about Alexa, they usually give her a lot of credit for her mic work and facial expressions but not for anything in the ring.
Here is what she had to say:
“I don’t, but here’s the thing, I’m a bad guy. Who likes a bad guy that does a lot of flashy things? You know what I mean? It is my job to be hated, so if that means coming in when the opportunity is right and cashing in on other people’s misfortunes in the ring that is what I am going to do.
“Now, when I become a good guy, are people going to see a brand new skill set from me? Absolutely. Right now, my job isn’t to wow the crowd with my in-ring ability, my job is to be hated, which is what I love to do. My job is to be hated because people get that much madder when I win a title because they talk about me not being able to wrestle in the ring—I can, but I am choosing not to, and the fact that when I win and they are getting angry that only means that I am doing my job that much more.”
