One WWE Superstar has proven their talents outside of the ring by performing on the latest season of The Masked Singer.

The hit series on FOX shows celebrities competing in disguise each week, with the worst performer being eliminated and unmasked.

The format originated with South Korea's 'The King of Mask Singer' and has variations in the UK, Croatia, Denmark, Russia, Spain, and elsewhere.

WWE's Alexa Bliss hasn't competed in the ring since the Royal Rumble, but we now know what her absence from WWE TV has been really about.

During last night's episode of the show (now in its ninth season,) Bliss was unmasked as the Axolotl character.

Bliss performed "Can't Fight the Moonlight" by LeAnn Rimes against Fairy ("Angel from Montgomery" by Bonnie Raitt,) and Macaw ("Live Like You Were Dying" by Tim McGraw.)

In the Battle Royale head-to-head later in the show (in which both contestants performed "That Don't Impress Me Much" by Shania Twain,) Fairy was eliminated and revealed as actress Holly Robinson Peete.

For the previous season, AEW's Chris Jericho performed as the 'Bride' and made it to the final seven.

Bliss and Jericho are hardly the first wrestlers to appear on a reality game show, and likely won't be the last.

For Dancing With the Stars' second season, Stacy Keibler showed her dance moves, and The Miz would compete on the show in 2019.

Chris Jericho has also competed on Dancing With the Stars, (finishing in seventh) and his performance would prompt his 2013 feud with Fandango.

Despite being a singer, Jericho would not have similar success on Celebrity Duets, where he was the first person eliminated.

In 2010, Maria Kanellis-Bennett appeared on Celebrity Apprentice, while Robbie E (now Robert Stone) and Brooke Tessmacher would compete on The Amazing Race.
