WWE star Alexa Bliss played a role in Netflix’s new pro wrestling-inspired series “The Queen of Villains.”
Based on Japanese pro wrestling legend Dump Matsumoto, all five episodes of the scripted drama are available to stream on Netflix starting today. Bliss revealed in an Instagram post that she was part of the English voice cast for the show, voicing wrestler Maki Ueda.
Bliss said she was honored to be part of the series and had a lot of fun with her first voiceover role.
“I am BEYOND thankful and honored for this amazing experience. I had THE BEST time working with [director Timmy Red] on my first voiceover project! You were so helpful & patient with me (especially with the singing) – I’m just so honored to have voiced for Maki Ueda on this incredible series,” Bliss wrote.
“Thank you so much @netflix – this was truly so fun. I LOVED every second of ‘The Queen of [Villains]’ And I know you will too.”
Bliss has been away from the WWE ring since January 2023. She gave birth to her daughter Hendrix last November. In July of this year, Bliss shared a photo of her working out in the ring and performing her first back handspring since giving birth.
Here’s the synopsis for the “Queen of Villains” series:
Dump Matsumoto overcomes conflicts to become one of the most famous heels in Japanese history as she tries to prove her own worth as a wrestler in a world filled with gender inequality.
Netflix’s next pro wrestling-related project is its “Mr. McMahon” docuseries that premieres next Wednesday (September 25). Starting in January 2025, Netflix will be the new home of WWE Raw.
