Liv Morgan WrestleMania plans are reportedly taking shape, as the WWE Superstar recently made her return from injury and is now being considered for a major role heading into WrestleMania 42. Morgan, a member of The Judgment Day, came back to action at last month’s Survivor Series Premium Live Event and competed in her first match since her hiatus during WWE’s Live Holiday Tour.
Internal Push for Liv Morgan Ahead of WrestleMania
According to a recent Wrestlevotes Radio report shared by Fightful Select, there has been significant internal support within WWE for Liv Morgan to become a central figure in the women’s division as WrestleMania 42 approaches. The organization is reportedly looking at Morgan as a likely participant in a featured singles match on this year’s WrestleMania card. Additionally, Sean Ross Sapp reported that WWE’s management had been waiting for the ideal opportunity to reintroduce Morgan to television after nearly six months away from in-ring competition.
Morgan’s Recent In-Ring Success on the Holiday Tour
During the WWE Live Holiday Tour, Liv Morgan squared off against fellow RAW competitor Lyra Valkyria at three separate shows held in Florida. Morgan, who once held the Women’s World Championship, managed to defeat Valkyria at each event. These victories have contributed to her momentum as the spring season—and WrestleMania—approaches.
Unexpected Return at Survivor Series Premium Live Event
While many fans anticipated that Liv Morgan would make her comeback as a surprise entrant in the 2026 Women’s Royal Rumble Match, she instead returned ahead of schedule. At Survivor Series Premium Live Event, Morgan played a pivotal role by assisting Dominik Mysterio in reclaiming his WWE Intercontinental Championship from John Cena. Her unannounced return added intensity and intrigue to the show, setting up further speculation about her path leading to WrestleMania.
Stablemate Raquel Rodriguez Reflects on Morgan’s Comeback
Morgan’s return did not go unnoticed by her allies. Raquel Rodriguez, known as “Big Mami Cool” and Morgan’s stablemate, reflected on the determination that fueled Morgan’s early comeback. Rodriguez discussed her teammate’s drive on the program Going Ringside:
“You know, if I know Liv [Morgan] as good as I think I know Liv, I’m actually not surprised [she’s back already] because that girl is hungry. She’s hungry for success, she is hungry for a championship, she is hungry just to be better and be the best that she can be, and so, as also a fellow athlete, when you do get taken out for an illness or for an injury, it is so difficult to sit on the sidelines and just watch,” Rodriguez said.

During Morgan’s absence, Raquel Rodriguez stepped up to fill the gap, even challenging for the Women’s World Championship herself last week. As the Judgment Day faction continues to gain momentum, attention remains on how Morgan’s return will further shape the division in the coming months.
The Road to WrestleMania 42
With WrestleMania 42 on the horizon, Liv Morgan’s trajectory appears promising, as WWE’s creative direction and backstage support focus on making her a mainstay of the women’s division. Her recent performances and internal backing suggest that she could play a crucial role on The Grandest Stage of Them All. Fans and analysts will be watching closely as Morgan’s story unfolds in the weeks leading up to the company’s marquee event.
There is a push internally to showcase Liv Morgan as a centerpiece of the women’s division at WrestleMania 42 this year.
