Fans have been waiting to see Liv Morgan get more opportunities in WWE for some time now, and in recent months Morgan has been feuding with Raw Women’s Champion Becky Lynch.
WWE has released a number of talents over the last few years including former Riott Squad members Ruby Soho and Sarah Logan, and Morgan referenced the releases during a segment on Raw when she said that Becky Lynch’s “greedy contract” is the reason why her friends aren’t with the company anymore.
During a recent interview with SHAK Wrestling Liv Morgan discussed the controversial line, and she stood by the promo while noting that she was defending the honor of her friends.
“I believe that everyone is allowed to feel the way they feel. Everyone is allowed to react the way they want to react. I knew what I was saying might have been a little bit touchy, just because it’s a sensitive topic. But also, like you said, that’s my truth, and that’s how I felt.”
“My friends reached out to me afterward and let me know how awesome they thought it was and how proud they were. I felt okay with it because I felt, one, I was defending their honor. Two, they loved that I did it, and three, it’s just how I felt. Becky has been getting so personal with me and I felt that I needed to bring her back down to reality really quick.”
