#5 Authority role for Alexa Bliss?
Alexa Bliss has missed her second straight pay per view after being diagnosed with a concussion and it's starting to look like WWE is going to transition her into another role with the company for now. Not only is that evident by her new business attire, which is drawing huge reactions from the crowd, but also by rumors of her taking on an authority role.
According to a recent article from Cagesideseats.com's WWE rumor roundup: "Alexa Bliss being pulled from in-ring duty for a second straight PPV and how WWE is presenting her on Raw right now has triggered speculation she could be moved into an authority figure role after her latest injury."
With that being said, and Baron Corbin and Kurt Angle still struggling for power, it will be interesting to see what role WWE puts her in. Maybe WWE could have Corbin and Angle fired and then bring in Alexa Bliss at a temporary capacity. That way, WWE can let Corbin versus Angle continue in the ring and give Bliss a role in the meantime.
