– Alexa Bliss discussed her eating disorder in a new interview with USA Today. Bliss battled anorexia when she was a cheerleader at the University of Akron in 2009 and ended up going from 120 pounds to eighty in six weeks.

“(The eating disorder) is one of those things that I never talked about because I didn’t want people shaming me or people feeling sorry for me,” she said. “I didn’t want either of those. I feel like when I was going through that, I didn’t have anybody to look up to and be able to see they went through it and they are OK. A lot of people that I know who are dealing with eating disorders are still dealing with them today because you never get over them. It’s always a bit in the back of my mind…You have to know your life means more than that. You can accomplish anything no matter what demons are put in front of you. You can push through anything.”

– WWE released a Raw Fallout video with Noam Dar. Dar explains why he didn’t tag into the eight-man tag team match on Monday’s episode, saying that there was nothing for him to gain by doing so.

“This is New York City,” Dar said. “I’ve got a big night planned, much more important than any tag match on RAW. I don’t want to leave the Barclays Center with a busted lip or a broken nose in the ‘spirit of competition’.”
