The interesting storyline featuring Lana and Liv Morgan became even more complicated following this week’s WWE Raw. These two competed in a rematch from last week where Morgan picked up the win by pinning her current rival. But the winning moments soon turned bitter courtesy of her former best friend, Ruby Riott who returned on the show to deliver an assault and lay her down in the middle of the ring.

Ruby Riott continued the attack on her former buddy from behind as Lana provided the distraction. Riott made her exit, stopping to turn back around and smile at Liv Morgan who was trying to recover. But Lana took advantage of the situation and dropped Liv again with a face-buster and burst out with joy.

There’s no update on why Ruby Riott decided to turn on Liv Morgan upon return. It will get clear in the coming weeks whether WWE intends to use her in the ongoing angle in a significant role. Whatever the plan is, the sudden return has made the women’s division of WWE Raw, even stronger.
