Liv Morgan, who once held the Women’s World Championship, has chosen to take a different direction within The Judgment Day since her return to action in WWE. After her reign as champion, Morgan now emphasizes her role supporting her Judgment Day teammates, rather than seeking a singles title of her own, reflecting the group’s shared goal of holding multiple championships across the roster.
Morgan’s journey saw her capture the championship in May 2024 by defeating Becky Lynch, with her reign lasting over 200 days. Her title run ended when Rhea Ripley claimed victory during the first Raw broadcast on Netflix in January 2025. Shortly after, an injury sidelined Morgan through the summer, temporarily removing her from in-ring competition.
The pause in her singles career ended in dramatic fashion when Morgan returned at Survivor Series. In a surprise move, she intervened in a match involving John Cena, helping Dominik Mysterio reclaim the Intercontinental Title, further strengthening The Judgment Day’s standing within the WWE hierarchy.
The Shift Toward Tag Team Ambitions
Now healthy, Morgan is not prioritizing the Women’s World Championship. As all three women in The Judgment Day are ready to compete again, she is content letting another member pursue singles glory. This shift underscores Morgan’s commitment to the “all gold” pursuit that has become a Judgment Day trademark, focusing on teamwork over individual accolades.
Discussing her decision during the Raw Recap show, Morgan elaborated on the group’s internal strategy and her satisfaction in letting Raquel Rodriguez aim for singles gold while she continues her tag team pursuits with Roxanne Perez.
“Big Sexy, Raquel Rodriguez, she claimed her stake for the Women’s World Championship, so that left the Tag Team Titles for Roxy and I. I’m gonna continue the tradition of Judgment Day holding all the gold, it’s going to start with, actually it starts with Dominik, Intercontinental Champion and AAA Mega Champion, shoutout to Daddy Dom.Roxy and I are gonna continue that with becoming the Women’s Tag Team Champions, Raquel’s gonna become the Women’s World Champion, and Finn, I hope, gets it together, which it seems like my little talk to him lit a little fire. [h/t WrestleTalk]” – Liv Morgan, WWE Superstar
This statement sheds light on the internal plans of The Judgment Day, illustrating Morgan’s optimism for continued dominance across multiple WWE divisions.
Key Title Contenders and Upcoming Matches
With Raquel Rodriguez now setting her sights on the Women’s World Championship, Morgan and Roxanne Perez are sharpening their focus on the WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles. The duo has recently secured a win in a number one contender’s match, granting them a title opportunity against Rhea Ripley and IYO SKY, scheduled to take place on January 24th at Saturday Night’s Main Event. This upcoming challenge represents Morgan’s current priorities within WWE and her ongoing role as a key contributor to The Judgment Day’s legacy.
Meanwhile, Dominik Mysterio currently holds the Intercontinental and AAA Mega Championships, serving as an example of Judgment Day’s multifaceted dominance. Finn Balor, also a member of the faction, is preparing for a pivotal match against CM Punk for the World Heavyweight Championship on the January 19th edition of Raw. These storylines highlight the stable’s sustained push for gold, echoing Morgan’s expressed desire to maintain the group’s championship tradition.
The Wider WWE Landscape: Implications for Liv Morgan and The Judgment Day
Morgan’s decision to focus on the Women’s Tag Team division illustrates how WWE superstars sometimes adapt their goals based on team strategies and roster dynamics, rather than purely individual ambition. By investing in her Judgment Day partners’ success, Morgan is helping build a legacy that goes beyond her own accolades, contributing to a powerful narrative that emphasizes unity and shared achievement.
As Morgan and Perez gear up for their title shot, and as the rest of The Judgment Day pursues their own championship paths, the group’s coordination and evolving roles may influence other stables and competitors within WWE. The coming weeks will reveal whether these strategies pay off, as The Judgment Day’s quest for dominance continues in a rapidly changing WWE landscape.
