Liv Morgan Eyes WWE Championship: Is a Third Reign Coming?

During a recent appearance on the Inside The Ring podcast, Liv Morgan expressed her desire to capture the WWE Women’s Championship once again, signaling a potential third reign in the future. The 2026 Women’s Royal Rumble winner emphasized her readiness to seize championship opportunities as they arise within WWE.

Addressing what a third reign would represent for her legacy, Morgan stated,

“Solidifies (that) I am the greatest women’s world champion of all time. Like I’ve been saying, a third reign. Three is also my favorite number. I know there is a third reign in my future. Um, just got to decide what do I want.”

When asked about the possibility of Raquel Rodriguez turning against her, Morgan dismissed the notion, highlighting their shared history and mutual support through difficult times such as injuries and illnesses. She commented,

“I don’t really think in that manner. You know, Raquel had multiple title shots against Stephanie. I think this was her fourth championship match. Um, so I don’t know what she’d really hold against me, you know, like you said, I’ve beaten it to death. She has an opportunity now. I have an opportunity. She had four opportunities, you know. Um, and so I’m not worried about Raquel turning on me. We’ve been through so much together with her illness, my shoulder surgery, you know what I mean? Um, we are so much stronger than fighting over a title opportunity.”

Big E Highlights Dominik Mysterio’s Steady Improvement in WWE

In a discussion on Compas On the Beat, former WWE Champion Big E praised Dominik Mysterio’s rapid growth as a performer, underlining the importance of giving young talent the time and space to develop. Big E recalled Dominik’s early days when he appeared unsure but has since gained significant confidence and presence in the ring.

Reflecting on Dominik’s progress, Big E remarked,

“He is someone — we talk often on the panel about guys who have really grown, and he is a prime example. You know, when he first came on the road, came up with his dad, you could tell he was green. You could tell he wasn’t quite comfortable. But I think too many times, it’s an example that we too often will throw away talent or say, ‘Ah, he’s not ready. He doesn’t have it. Eh, I don’t know. He should go back down to NXT, fire him.’ Give guys an opportunity to grow. Give guys an opportunity to find their footing. Because I needed that time as well. And he is someone who who’s taken that ball and he’s really run with it.”

He further praised the young wrestler’s poise and maturity, stating,

“He’s done an incredible job. He is someone that when you see him, you believe every word that comes out of his mouth. The way he carries himself, his confidence. I can’t speak highly enough of of his growth as a talent. He’s done an incredible job and he’s still so young. He’s not even 30 yet. He’s just going to get better and better. So a shout-out to him and all the work that he’s done.”

Lita recalled,

“Instantly, yeah. And it’s funny. She was definitely — I was intimidated by her when I first saw they hired her. I was like, ‘Oh my gosh, this goddess. I’m never going to get on TV.’ I was hired like right before her, a couple months before her. And then I saw them announce that they hired her and I was like, ‘Okay, well, I was so close. Almost got on TV,’ you know. And then we met and we just instantly hit it off.”

She also described the complementary nature of their personalities and the way fans often choose between them, saying,

“And we’re we always say to both the fans and ourselves, we’re kind of the perfect yin and yang. Because we’re very different, but we’re very similar in a lot of ways, and so we can kind of balance each other out. And from a fan perspective, too, If you’re not a Lita guy you’re a Trish guy. And then now it’s it’s fun for fans to be like, ‘Okay, I’m both. We’ve been able to separate and come around.’”

On their current friendship, she added,

“She’s definitely such a special friend. You know, you have friends that you’re like, ‘I can share this with, I can share that.’ But to be able to have had a pretty similar journey timeline-wise and everything, and also retiring at the same time. And we’ve just remained so close and talk all the time, and often times no wrestling subjects come up whatsoever. Really, really special to be able to take away that friendship from the business. Another gift that I got from my career journey.”
