Former women’s champion Nikki Cross has been acting weirdly on WWE RAW. She made a shocking appearance during the Trick or Street Fight between Chelsea Green and Natalya on the Halloween Special episode of RAW.
Last night on RAW, she gave a thousand yard stare during the Battle Royal for the #1 contender of Women’s World Championship. She did not seem interested in winning and was eventually eliminated by Raquel Rodriguez and Nia Jax.

Fans have been puzzled by Nikki’s actions. In this listicle now, we will look at the five possible reasons why Nikki Cross has been acting weirdly on WWE RAW.
1. Nikki Cross may have been impacted by Bray Wyatt
As per backstage rumors, WWE has been working on a storyline related to Bray Wyatt after his death. It will involve Bo Dallas as well, if he is ready. Bray Wyatt would give the thousand yard stare also. Hence, it could be a sign of a storyline related to him.
2. Nikki Cross might be hinting at Alexa Bliss’ return
Alexa Bliss is likely to return to WWE in early 2024. She has worked with Nikki in the past. Perhaps, WWE might have started the slow build-up to Alexa’s return with this storyline of her being distracted.
3. The return of Sanity?
Cross seems to be insane now. The only people who can bring her to Sanity are her former stablemates Eric Young, Alexander Wolfe, Killian Dain and Sawyer Fullton. This might be a hint of the faction’s return to WWE.
4. Regrets over throwing the 24/7 championship?
The above theories seem likely to be the reason, but fans have also opined that Nikki would be upset about the demise of the 24/7 title, which she held at one point.

It was the last time she was relevant, and the absence of that title might have upset her. The storyline could lead to WWE introducing a new mid-card belt to make Nikki happy.
5. Another Drew McIntyre?
The Scots in WWE haven’t been having the best time. Drew McIntyre lost another world title match at Crown Jewel, and now Nikki’s career is going nowhere. The best way they can revive their careers is by joining a faction like The Judgment Day or forming a group of their own.
