Liv Morgan Reveals Dominik Mysterio, Not Vaquer, Made Her Cry

During the recent episode of Monday Night RAW, Liv Morgan found herself in tears while announcing her choice of world champion to challenge at WrestleMania 42. The segment was interrupted by Women’s World Champion Stephanie Vaquer, who delivered a harsh message in Spanish, which Dominik Mysterio translated. Although viewers assumed Vaquer’s words triggered Morgan’s tears, the wrestler clarified otherwise.

Liv Morgan Explains the Real Reason Behind Her Emotional Moment

Speaking to Going Ringside, Liv Morgan addressed the misunderstanding about her tears and revealed that it was actually Dominik Mysterio’s delivery of Vaquer’s insults that cut deeper. Yet, she insisted that the tears were ultimately caused by a physical factor rather than the words themselves.

“Yeah, luckily I had Daddy Dom there to translate for me. Honestly, it hurt a little bit more hearing those words come from Dominic’s voice. But if you look closely, I don’t know if you could see it on camera, a huge piece of dust flew into my eye. A huge piece of dust just hit me right in the face, and I was like, whoa. That’s where the tears came from. It probably looked like I was crying because of what she was saying, but really it was just that big particle of dust that got me.”

Liv Morgan’s comments reveal that despite the tension created by the segment, it was an unexpected incident—a speck of dust—that caused her eyes to water. She has yet to announce which champion she will challenge at WrestleMania 42.

Dominik’s Role in the Controversial Segment and Fan Reactions

Dominik Mysterio’s translation of Vaquer’s cutting remarks became a focal point because Morgan found the insult more painful coming from him. This added complexity to the segment, fueling fan discussions about the emotional dynamics at play. Dominik’s involvement turned what could have been a straightforward interruption into a more personal moment for Morgan, intensifying the narrative on RAW.
