Liv Morgan comments on the genesis of her love triangle with Dominik Mysterio and Rhea Ripley.
The rivalry between Rhea Ripley and Liv Morgan touches on many different themes. The importance of being Women's World Champion remains at the core of the issue, but almost just as important has been the love triangle involving Dominik Mysterio.
Liv Morgan, who grew up an avid WWE fan, is enjoying the opportunity to be the champion while being featured in a story that incorporates elements of storylines that she enjoyed as a fan. During a recent interview with the New York Post, Morgan explained her viewpoint on the rivalry.
"Yeah, it's been interesting due to my past with Rhea, literally as she breaks my shoulder and I have rotator cuff surgery and labrum repair surgery and bicep repair surgery. She ascends to this level of superstardom and here I am at home watching her and I absolutely hate it. So I devise this whole Liv Morgan revenge tour as I'm watching my opposition, Rhea Ripley ascend into superstardom. So it's interesting to be on the other side of that and to be building my superstardom in my own right. But man, I mean, it's going to feel so good to absolutely crush her at Bad Blood. I'm trying to remember, was that your first- It doesn't matter how big of a star she is," said Morgan. "Yeah, I think it's cool to know and show that we can do both, you know, yes, I can be the women's champion and have a story centered around my championship, but also bring in these elements and these elements that a lot of people growing up watching WWE loved. They loved the romance. They love the messiness, love the love triangles. Like who doesn't love a good love story? So to be able to bring those two together, I think has been cool because it's usually one or the other, you know, so to have a story that actually, you know, maybe isn't so centered on the championship is special in its own way as well."
Dominik Mysterio will be suspended in a shark cage above the ring when Ripley and Morgan battle again for the championship at WWE Bad Blood.
