She performed well
Get her some more like that and I will def on board. I like her but she doesn't exude confidence as champ and she doesn't really have a ring moveset of her own to work off of. She's just scrappy

She's just scrappy Morgan’s a good example of something, I don’t know what to really call it but, it’s this thing where it’s like… We get so desperate to get these people elevated to winning a title because they’re over or because it’s someone new and it’s a break from the usual contenders or because it’s their turn or (let’s be honest) because they churn one’s butter, and then when they have the gold, they get exposed and everyone sees the holes in the game that may have warranted them not getting to this level any earlier, or even getting to this level right now. And now they’re trying to fill those holes while ostensibly being the standard-bearer of the division, potentially going over objectively better talents. And they also have to deal with the wildcard of iffy booking too. So you end up in this situation where the fanbase spends at least a year or more wanting Morgan to get her big run, cursing the company for not doing so, she finally gets it… And then seemingly ONLY at that point do we actually ask “Is she good enough to credibly beat an Olympic judo medallist and former UFC phenom?”, and when the answer is “No”, then it’s HER fault? |

I really liked the match. Both her and Shayna played their roles well and had a very well worked match with the face champion getting the hard fought title defense. They should've been doing stuff like this right from the start instead of the convoluted mess they did at Summerslam. Unfortunately they're probably going back Liv and Ronda again and I don't see that ending good in any way for our girl. I guess maybe her and a returning Charlotte while Ronda does something with Shayna either as rivals or partners but that might actually be even worse for Liv then her feuding with Ronda again.

I dug it fine. Like, I was pretty confident Liv was retaining, in large part since I don't feel like Ronda vs Liv is done just yet, and there's not really any match if it's not for the title, but this was thankfully more substantial than just a filler title defense.

Well, Liv got her clean win against a legitimate challenger. Nikki Cross and Carmella never got that. Didn't Carmella beat Charlotte clean on a PPV? Could've sworn they did a finish where Charlotte landed on her feet on a moonsault and hurt her knee and Carmella rolled her up for the win. Kind of fluky but still a clean win in that she didn't cheat at all. |

And she got her 10th straight televised win in the process, becoming one of only 15 women to hit that marker in the last 18 years. If that many women have hit that marker is it really that big of an accomplishment? Honestly I'm actually surprised that many have done it. 10 TV wins in a row is a lot. Even for the women who are booked really strong (Ronda, Bianca, NXT-early MR Asuka, 2018-2020 Becky) as there's always going to be multi matches or tag matches where the partner eats the pin. Outside of the 4HW, Ronda, Bianca, and Asuka I'm drawing blanks on who they would book to get that many wins in a row. Ivy Nile has won a lot on NXT mainly on LVL Up over the last year but she's also had some tag team losses where Tatum Paxley ate the pin that I'm thinking may have broke up win streaks before she could get to 10. |

To put into perspective, 81 male wrestlers have achieved the same feat in the same timeframe. But yeah, it is something a little bit noteworthy because how the match cards and feuds usually get structured. For someone to dodge the minefield as champion, one that often includes matches against the top contender that the champion loses to build up that contender, for 10 straight matches (which, at an average of one match per week, covers at least two and a half months in real time), it’s worth pointing out, especially for someone who struggled to string wins together for so long. |

Loved the match at Clash at the Castle, it told an extremely good story and had some cool spots in it. Keep giving her affairs like these and she'll be remembered as one of the all time greats soon.  Seeing her side by side with Leon Edwards was a cool touch. After a rough start, this title run seems already like a success. Worst fears are over, they didn't Nikki ASH her. Wouldn't mind one more title defence before the inevitable match vs. Ronda Rousey. Just remember to feature her weekly at SmackDown and I'm staying happy as hell! |

I'd like to know whenever she has to take time off 'cause of all the ' projects. Her worth will FINALLY double because of that. That's so cool. Let's hope she gets as big as Jennifer Lawrence and Margot Robbie. I'm so sure she'll kill it in these minor roles, ' wouldn't mind to see her headline some major films in the future! 👅I so'oh see myself following her as actively as I do now in my 50s via movies. 😍 #HollywoodLiv

I was thinking the one that hasn't been revealed is her getting killed in the Chucky series as she's said that's something that she's always wanted. However I remembered the next season premieres next month so it can't be that as they would obviously be done filming. Unless they are doing a season 3 and it's for that. |

Bianca vs. Mandy vs. Liv would be a cool Survivor Series match to see.
