Liv Morgan wasn't too excited at first, but she came around.
Liv Morgan made her debut on the WWE main roster in 2017 as part of The Riott Squad alongside Ruby Riott (Ruby Soho) and Sarah Logan. They had a run together for nearly two years before the trio disbanded. Years later, Morgan has become one of the top stars on WWE Raw, and she holds the WWE Women's World Championship.
Speaking with Kenny McIntosh for Inside The Ropes Magazine (via ITR Wrestling), Morgan reflected on her time in The Riott Squad and shared her initial reaction to being part of the group.
“Way more important for my development than I thought or knew at the time. I remember I was actually a little bit upset, in a way, just because I didn’t view myself as a tag team wrestler, I viewed myself as a singles competitor. Also, I was only a singles competitor up until that time, so I wasn’t too excited at the thought of it, even though I was so excited at the thought of finally being on RAW or SmackDown," Morgan said.
Morgan then discussed adjusting to being in a group, and she stated that three of them clicked immediately. She went on to express that she was grateful for her time working with Soho and Logan, as she learned a lot from them.
"Right away. I just clicked with Ruby and Sarah so fast. When you look at the three of us, we couldn’t look more different. But once we got to spend so much time together and peel back the layers, we realized we were way more similar than we ever could have guessed. So we created a true sisterhood, and I learned so much from Ruby and Sarah. They both had been wrestling for years before me, and I definitely didn’t think I knew it all by any means. I still don’t think I know s—t really. But I just thought that I didn’t need them, and I learned super fast just how much I did, and how valuable and important they’d be to me and my career and my development because I got to learn so much from them, and I got to lean on them. I couldn’t be more grateful and thankful for them," Morgan said.
Morgan previously said that she was proud of her time in The Riott Squad. Check out her comments here.
