The duo defeated Iiconics to win the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship in 2018 make Bliss a triple crown champion. Bliss also joined forces with “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt for a brief period where she transformed her character to a scarier side started feuding against Randy Orton after turning heel and attacking her former tag team partner.
Bliss’ current status a WWE superstar
After her match against Charlotte Flair at WWE Extreme Rules last year, Bliss took an extended break. Flair destroyed Bliss’ doll, Lily, after winning the match. To cope with the loss of her “friend” Lily, Bliss returned to WWE earlier this year and underwent counseling sessions that aired on RAW.
She was later cleared to return for in-ring competition after a few sessions. She declared her intention to compete in the Women’s Elimination Chamber match. Fans expected Bliss to take on a new persona, but this did not happen. She was still playing the demented character she had become into since meeting The Fiend. Bliss has been absent in WWE since her loss at the Elimination Chamber match. As reported earlier, Bliss had been out of action during the WrestleMania weekend as well. She recently got married to singer Ryan Cabrera.
