The wrestling world, much like my social media feed, is ablaze with speculation, conspiracies, and more GIFs than a cat meme convention. Ever since the Wyatt Sicks arrived on “WWE Raw,” fans have been anxiously waiting for the other shoe—or in this case, the sixth boot—to drop. Who could be this mysterious sixth member? Is it Braun Strowman with his power moves and beard goals? The spirit of the late, great Bray Wyatt, guiding the group like a mystical wrestling Obi-Wan? Or, plot twist, could it be the WWE’s own Harley Quinn, Alexa Bliss, who’s ready to twirl back into our lives like a demented ballerina?
On Friday, Bliss, ever the queen of cryptic messaging, took to her X account (which, let’s be honest, still feels like Twitter to all of us). She posted a GIF that sent wrestling Twitter into a tizzy. And what was this earth-shattering GIF? Taylor Swift giving her signature “Are you ready for it?” look, paired with the words that could either signal Bliss’s WWE return or simply acknowledge that Swifties and wrestling fans share an alarming love for over-analyzing.
Now, before we dive into the wrestling ring of speculation, let’s remember this: Bliss hasn’t been seen on TV since January 2023. After losing to Bianca Belair at the Royal Rumble, she went on maternity leave—taking some well-deserved time off from bodyslams and pyrotechnics. But her connection to Bray Wyatt? It’s deeper than a WWE storyline; it’s practically a soap opera with suplexes. She was pulled into Wyatt’s orbit back in 2020, planned for a stable, and last seen being tormented by Uncle Howdy (Bo Dallas’s wild alter-ego and current leader of the Wyatt Sicks). So, is Bliss gearing up for a return? Or is she just letting the world know that Taylor Swift is life?
The GIF, taken from Swift’s 2017 music video “…Ready For It?” is not just a casual choice. It’s a sci-fi spectacle that could easily double as a WWE entrance vignette. Lyrics like “Knew he was a killer first time that I saw him,” “But if he’s a ghost, then I can be a phantom,” and “Let the games begin,” are so eerily on-brand for Bliss, it’s almost as if Taylor wrote the song with her in mind. Coincidence? I think not. But in the end, whether Bliss is teasing her return or just her impeccable taste in pop music, one thing is clear: we better be ready for it.
