While budget cuts are essentially making it difficult for the company to keep up its production, several Superstars now remain with no work. Famed Superstar Alexa Bliss has reacted to this news.

She took to social media to post a broken heart emoji, and it doesn’t require further explanation. It is truly heartbreaking news considering some of the released Superstars were actually actively working on WWE Television such as Keith Lee and Nia Jax.

Now, all the released Superstars will have to serve the non-compete clause. So for now, all of them will not be able to get inside the ring with another promotion until this clause ends.

It’ll be a while before the fans know what’s the next step for the released Superstars.

Is Alexa Bliss safe?

So far, there is nothing going on that would indicate Bliss is unsafe. She’s changed her character, she’s changed the way she presents herself, introduced Lilly Doll (which is a bestseller on the WWE Shop), and is one of the popular Superstars on the women’s roster.

However, she’s been away from the ring for a while. Reportedly, she’s away from the ring because of surgery, but that wouldn’t stop the company from releasing her if required.

It was a shock when WWE released Bray Wyatt, and if they released The Twisted Goddess of WWE, it’ll come as a massive shock as well. But, at this point, WWE releasing Superstars may be shocking but not unexpected.

Alexa Bliss’ last time in the ring was during her championship feud with Charlotte Flair for the WWE Raw Women’s Title. After Becky Lynch came to Raw with the title following Crown Jewel 2021, Bliss sent a cryptic message.

Keeping these in mind, unless a Superstar is actually holding The Gold, there’s no guarantee he or she is safe from WWE’s release sprees that are happening rather frequently.
