Alexa Bliss Says She Pitched Current Tag Team Run With Charlotte Flair

Alexa Bliss says the pitch for her and Charlotte Flair teaming together came from her.

In June of this year, Alexa would begin to approach Charlotte Flair about a potential tag team, which has turned into the Allies of Convenience that fans see every week, as well as becoming the WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions.

While speaking on In The Kliq, Alexa Bliss spoke about her partnership with Charlotte Flair, noting that she pitched the partnership to creative.

“It’s been so fun working with Charlotte. This was something that came about very kind of randomly, we were talking to creative, and I kind of like threw it out there. I was like, well, what about- they gave me like a list of names of people who were kind of like in this little bubble of needing storyline, and I was like, ‘well, what about Charlotte?’ We have this long past. They said Charlotte’s name and I was like, yeah, we have a long past I think it would be a fun dynamic to see what do these two people who don’t normally interact get along with other people or have success with other people look like getting stuck together and that’s been super fun. We’ve been having fun with it, at our entrances that are little pushing, pulling all the stuff that’s just us improv-ing and just having fun with it. It’s been a lot of fun. I was right. We would be successful because now we’re tag team champions and it’s been great. We get to see a different side of me, a different side of Charlotte, which, I think is so fun and (to) see her kind of open up and have fun as a character. Because we saw before just a character that was mainly going for a singles title and then my character was never really one after joining Bray, was never really focused on any titles. So it’s fun to see the mesh of the two come together as this kind of odd couple and, you know, allies of convenience. It’s been a lot of fun and I think that’s what kind of resonates with the audiences that we’re naturally having fun, and I think it allows the audience to have fun with us.”

Elsewhere in the same interview, Bliss spoke about WrestleMania 41 and 42 taking place in Las Vegas. You can read more about that here.
