Following a two-year hiatus, Bliss shocked wrestling fans with a surprise appearance at the Royal Rumble on February 1 in Indianapolis, Indiana. She entered the Women's Royal Rumble match at No. 21 at the Lucas Oil Stadium and had a short but impactful run. Bliss was eliminated by Liv Morgan just before Charlotte Flair joined in as the 27th entrant.
Returning to the Royal Rumble was a full circle moment for Bliss as her last appearance was at the same event in 2023 where she faced Bianca Belair for the Women's Championship. She took a leave of absence following the match, later announcing her pregnancy.
Bliss is a fan-favorite among WWE fans of all ages boasting 10 million followers across social media platforms and has held multiple titles since joining the company in 2013.
She is the first woman to win both the Raw (3 times) and SmackDown (2 times) Women's Championships and a two-time WWE Women's Tag Team Champion, making her one of the most decorated women in WWE history.
Outside of wrestling, Bliss has appeared on Peacock's Punky Brewster revival series, Apple TV+'s Carpool Karaoke, and FOX's The Masked Singer. She currently voices the character 'Obiguro' in the Netflix anime series Sakamoto Days, which premiered in Netflix's global Top 10 (Jan 13-19, 2025). She also voiced 'Maki Ueda' in the Netflix series The Queen of Villains.
She will continue to be repped by Michael Garnett at Leverage Management and Marc Cabrera and Dan Abrams at Polsinelli PC.

WWE's 'The Miz' suggests Chiefs star for American Gladiators, talks Browns fandom
WWE's 'The Miz' suggests Chiefs star for American Gladiators, talks Browns fandom This week, Chiefs Wire's Ed Easton Jr. spoke to Mike 'The Miz' Mizanin about his participation in this year's American Century Championship, which will take place July 9-13 at Edgewood Tahoe, his earliest memory of the Cleveland Browns fandom, and hosting the upcoming American Gladiators reboot while name dropping Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce as an ideal Gladiator. The Kelce brothers are confirmed to be Miz's competition again this year, as he will seek a better finish than last year's tournament. Miz is an Ohio native and a die-hard Browns fan, having witnessed the franchise's ups and downs. Cleveland's last divisional round postseason appearance was against Kansas City in 2020, when they lost at Arrowhead Stadium 17-22. He recalled his earliest memory of the team as a child attending school, singing about their quarterback, Bernie Kosar. "I believe I was in, like, fifth grade, and I was going to school in the bus, and we were just singing, Bernie, Bernie, oh baby Super Bowl," said Miz, "So, yeah, I remember that verbatim, and I also remember us not making it to the Super Bowl. I believe that year was either the fumble or the drive. I'm not sure which one, but those are the two things that really screwed us." The former WWE champion was recently named host of the upcoming reboot of American Gladiators on Prime Video. "I can't wait. I think, with this show, we're gonna, you know, give a nod to what, what American Gladiators was in the past, and elevate it and put it, you know, with 100% and go literally, ball to the wall, if you will." said Miz, "I mean, American Gladiators is a staple, and now to be the host of American Gladiators. It's an absolute honor, and I take it very, very seriously. I want to make sure that this show is everything people imagine it to be and more, and it will be. I can't wait for people to meet the Gladiators. I can't wait for people to see the events, and I can't wait for people to see me as the host." During a recent appearance on NFL Network's Good Morning Football, Miz suggested that Chiefs star Travis Kelce would make a great addition to the show as a Gladiator. "I'm gonna go with two tight ends. I'm gonna go, George Kittle, I'm gonna go with Travis Kelce, because of personality," said Miz during the broadcast, "A Gladiator has to have a great personality, and got to be out there, not only do that be physically dominating but they got to be someone, either you're root for, or you're gonna boo kind of like a WWE superstar." The annual tournament awards $750,000 in prize money, much of which the celebrity players donate to local and national charities. Over the years, nearly $8 million has been donated to non-profit causes. Network television exposure on NBC, along with a first-place prize of $150,000, makes the celebrity tournament one of the most prestigious in the golf world.
