Alexa Bliss shocked the WWE Universe with her surprise return at the 2025 Royal Rumble, entering the match at the #21 spot. The match marked Bliss’ first appearance for WWE in over two years, and has left fans wondering what’s going on with The Goddess.

It had even been reported that some in WWE believed that the two would not be able to reach a new deal, and as a result, Bliss’ tenure with WWE would end.

On Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer claims that sources within WWE have confirmed Bliss has signed a new contract. With that said, he doesn’t believe it was as “last-minute” as sources indicated and argued that WWE was “pulling a swerve.” News of Bliss re-signing with WWE was kept a closely within the company, with Meltzer adding “It was people in the office they fooled too, and high-up.”

Whether WWE intentionally misled insiders or Bliss’ contract was genuinely finalized at the last moment, one thing is certain, she’s back, and her WWE future is secure. Now, fans can look forward to seeing much more of the pint-sized powerhouse who is ready to make an impact in the ring once again.
