Alexa Bliss tried to impress Ryan Cabrera with a homemade breakfast when they first started dating, but things went so badly that he told her never to cook again. The WWE Superstar thought she was doing something sweet for her future husband before he headed out for an early round of golf. Unfortunately, her scrambled eggs were a complete disaster, and Cabrera didn’t exactly keep his opinion to himself for very long.
While appearing on Shot of Brandi with Brandi Rhodes, Bliss admitted that cooking isn’t exactly one of her strongest skills. The subject came up while the two were preparing cheddar cheese soup, with Bliss explaining why Cabrera had previously told her to stay away from the kitchen.
Bliss said the incident happened early in their relationship. She wanted to surprise Cabrera with breakfast before he left to play golf, hoping to make a good impression as his new girlfriend.
“So this is when Ryan and I were first dating and he had to get up early for golf, and I was like, ‘Okay, I’m gonna be the super awesome girlfriend and I’m gonna have breakfast ready for him.'”
She decided to make scrambled eggs and a bagel, but the eggs didn’t come out the way she expected. In fact, Bliss knew something was wrong before Cabrera even took a bite.
“And so I made him eggs and I knew they didn’t quite look right.”
Bliss described the eggs as looking more like little burnt pellets. Despite that, Cabrera ate everything she prepared without making a single complaint. She assumed the breakfast had gone over well, but she found out the truth later that day. The couple attended a game night at a friend’s house, where someone asked everyone to reveal a lie they had told their significant other. Cabrera wasted absolutely no time exposing Bliss’ terrible cooking.
“And Ryan proudly and loudly says, ‘I told her this morning that her eggs are great and they were terrible.'”
Bliss was stunned because Cabrera had eaten the entire breakfast and acted like nothing was wrong. But he wasn’t finished explaining how he felt about her cooking.
“I love you. I appreciate the sentiment. You are never cooking again.”
Rather than getting upset, Bliss admitted that she was actually relieved. She already knew the eggs were terrible and wasn’t exactly looking forward to making another breakfast.
“I was more relieved because I was like, I knew they were bad.”
Bliss explained that she used to cook regularly during her bodybuilding days, when she had to prepare her own meals. However, life on the road with WWE eventually changed that. Constant travel and limited time at home made it difficult to keep up with cooking, and she gradually lost the habit.
There was at least some redemption during her appearance with Brandi Rhodes. Bliss was put in charge of cooking the bacon for their soup, and she managed to get through the job without burning it. Rhodes even joked that she would tell Cabrera to give Bliss another chance in the kitchen.
It sounds like Cabrera’s cooking ban has worked out pretty well for Bliss, especially since she wasn’t too upset about giving up breakfast duty in the first place. And after successfully handling the bacon, she might finally have a reason to challenge that old rule.
