Liv Morgan is loved universally by the WWE fans, and she has been running after RAW Women’s Title match opportunities for a long time. In recent times, WWE has finally pushed her into the title picture also featuring Becky Lynch. The challenger had come up short on a couple of occasions which led to the belief that his crowning moment could be in-store for Wrestlemania 38.
However, reports also claimed that Liv Morgan is not up for the job at the Showcase of Immortals. Bianca Belair is the reported name who might get another championship opportunity at ‘Mania which is why WWE keeps her protected, for the time being. Meanwhile, Liv may have to go back to the line during this ‘Mania season which is not a piece of good news for the beloved superstar.

While speaking to Inside the Ropes, Liv Morgan opened up about the beginning of her WWE career. Apparently, she had options of choosing a name, but she wasn’t fond of them. The company wanted to make her Liv Gallows as an on-screen character where fans may have found similarities to former tag champ, Luke Gallows.

However, the superstar having the real-life name of Gionna Daddio instead wanted to become Liv Morgan. Check out her comments,
“I thought, ‘Oh, my names are so terrible.’ All the names that I picked, they thought it was so bad.
So literally I show up to TV one day at Full Sail for NXT taping and they pulled me aside and they were like, ‘Alright, you’re either Liv Morgan or you’re Liv Gallows. I was like, I guess I pick Liv Morgan.’
I always liked the name Liv I didn’t really like Morgan, you know, but I grew to love it. I grew to love it all.
I found so many little puns to use Liv for and little fun little things I can use so. SmackDown Liv, You Only Liv Once, Liv is live, watch me Liv. I mean, I can go on.”
Liv Morgan went on to make her main roster debut in November 2017 on Smackdown as part of the Riott Squad faction along with Ruby Riott and Sarah Logan. The latter two names have been released from the WWE contract as Liv remains the only WWE Superstar.
Back on Raw, Liv Morgan was pinned by Doudrop in a Triple Threat also featuring Bianca Belair as she lost a championship opportunity at Raw Women’s Champion Becky Lynch. There’s no update available on what WWE has in-store for her in the near future.
