Ronda loses in controversial fashion at Summer Slam, then jumps Liv after the match is true heel fashion. Then she attacks the referee which leads to her being suspended from Smackdown.
Liv Morgan tried to cut a babyface promo the following week on Smackdown and gets booed.
Ronda returns to Smackdown and Adam Pierce goes full heel authority figure on her.
Liv beats Ronda's "Arn Anderson" in Shayna. Shayna has been working heel the entire program, and Liv is still face.
Is the enviable now Liv to transform into the cowardly champion like Daniel Bryan portrayed in 2011–2012?

It feels like they're trying to do a "shades of grey" thing, which usually backfires to a degree. They also almost exclusively do it with the women.

This might say more about how much I hate Pearce's character, but Ronda whooping his ass is the most I've ever liked her.

At the time I thought the Summerslam post-match was supposed to be a heel turn for Ronda but it obviously didn't work out if that was the plan because crowds have been cheering her even louder since then.

YES!!!YES! YES!!!!" over and over again* |

If anything I feel like today's show felt like the opposite and they're building up Liv feeling more confident as champion and getting to a higher level. If they were wanting to build her as a coward heel having her work to neutalize Shayna's advantage and then beat her clean is a very strange way to do it.

Yeah while I didn't care for the match or outcome, it was the most "proper fighting babyface" Liv has looked so far in her title run. Shayna is a good dance partner for that, so I'll give them props for at least showcasing Morgan correctly this time. |
