Alexa Bliss Discusses Her Battle With Anorexia, Rise In WWE

“Raw” Women’s Champion Alexa Bliss was recently interviewed by the New York Post, and discussed a number of topics. Among them were her rise to the top of WWE, the battle with anorexia as a teenager, working with Mickie James and more.

Below are some questions, along with “Little Miss Bliss'” answers:

Q: Where did the inspiration for the Alexa Bliss character come from? She seems like the mean, popular girl from school.

A: That’s exactly what I wanted to do. I remember telling my mom, because my mom used to help me out with my character a lot. I was telling her I want to be that mean girl that everyone knew in high school. Everyone knew that girl. There was always that one girl that was rude that was mean, but everyone still wants to know what’s going on with her. I get a lot of inspiration from a lot of different villains and different movies.

Q: Even before that, you had to deal with anorexia as a teenager. In what ways did it take over your life?

A: Oh gosh, I was a completely different person. It controls you and it consumes you in so many different ways.

I remember my mom sitting me down and telling me I was in the hospital and she was like, ‘You are probably going to die from this’ because the doctors were telling her 1 in 4 people die from it and I was going to be that one because my body wasn’t responding. My heart wasn’t responding. Everything was just going downhill and I didn’t see it. Your brain doesn’t see it. I remember being in the hospital and not knowing why.

Mickie James delivers a painful message to Alexa Bliss: Raw, Oct. 23, 2017

Q: You and Mickie James seem to have good chemistry. What is it like having veterans like her and Natalya in the locker room to bounce things off of?

A: I love having Mickie in the locker room. When I was on SmackDown, I always worked with Nattie and she’s awesome and I love Nattie to death. We always have our makeup and Sephora brushes. She actually texted me the other day about her Sephora trip, we compare Sephora trips.

They also discuss how she came to WWE, Asuka and more.
