In a recent exchange on Twitter/X, Bliss responded to a poll asking who would win a promo battle among herself, Rhea Ripley, Bianca Belair, Liv Morgan, Becky Lynch, and Tiffany Stratton. When a fan commented that none of these women could hold up to Bliss in 2017, she replied: “Just you wait” alongside a microphone emoji.
Bliss has not been in the ring since the 2023 Royal Rumble, where she lost to Bianca Belair in a WWE Women’s Championship match. The wrestler was reportedly training to return to active competition when she discovered she was pregnant, later saying, “I was preparing for my return in the ring and I was just having really bad cramping. I thought that was weird. So then I just decided to take a test and then I think I said, ‘Oh s—t.'”

Bliss and her husband Ryan Cabrera became parents in November 2023, and since then, the three-time Raw Women’s Champion has participated in several non-WWE ventures, but not returned to wrestling.
However, Bliss says that WWE still has her under contract, revealing, “WWE gave me time off for [Masked Singer] to kind of fully dive into that experience with rehearsals, vocal lessons, and all that stuff. Storyline-wise, I was not on TV anyway, so it really kind of worked out perfectly. [WWE] extended my contract, and so it’s just basically come back when I’m ready. Probably a month after the baby, I’ll start probably getting back into the gym, and getting ready for to see what my in-ring return looks like.”
