America’s favorite pop-punk band, Bowling For Soup, has joined forces with one of the the biggest names in professional wrestling, Alexa Bliss, for an awesome new song/video aptly titled, “Alexa Bliss.” Check out the video and cover art for the single below.
How did this happen? A couple of years ago, WWE Superstar and then WWE Raw Women’s champion, “The Goddess” Alexa Bliss revealed in an interview that Bowling For Soup were her favorite band. This led to her striking up a friendship with Bowling For Soup frontman Jaret Reddick, with Alexa and the band regularly swapping social media posts and Jaret being invited as Alexa’s guest to the 2018 Royal Rumble Pay Per View. Last year Bowling For Soup returned the favor, with Alexa being invited on stage at a Spring 2019 Bowling For Soup show.
Fast forward to Autumn 2019 and Bowling For Soup were in the studio, crafting riffs and melodies for their next single. The idea for what, or more importantly who, that single should be about came naturally – Alexa Bliss!. With a main riff thats perhaps the heaviest in the history of Bowling For Soup, combined with frenetic verses, a chorus bigger than their home state of Texas and more references to Alexa Bliss and WWE than an episode of Smackdown, this is a song that will thrill fans of BFS, WWE and beyond. The video for the single, which partly pays homage to the 1980’s movie Weird Science and stars none other than Little Miss Bliss herself.
