Liv Morgan recently spoke openly about her approach to handling online criticism, emphasizing her indifference toward most feedback unless it comes from those directly involved in her career. Earlier this month, when asked how she deals with critiques despite having a sizable social media following, Morgan stated that she only values opinions from her boss and close collaborators. She clarified these remarks during a discussion on the Battleground Podcast, underlining her appreciation for WWE fans while accepting that not everyone will agree with her work.
Clarifying What Matters: Supporters vs. Critics
During the podcast, Morgan made it clear that while she respects the WWE audience, online negativity does not affect her. She said,
“That’s not to say that I don’t care about my supporters or the people that watch the product,”
.
“But pertaining to online criticism, yeah, I do not care. I don’t care about what you have to say. I care about, obviously, what Triple H thinks, my boss. My producers. My peers involved. And whomever I’m seeking guidance for or advice for after the fact. And that could be various people, or no one,”
Morgan explained.
Understanding Subjectivity in Personal Taste
Liv Morgan compared criticism to personal taste, suggesting that even the most exceptional performance cannot win over everyone. She illustrated her point with a vivid metaphor:
“But, yeah, I just feel like — what is that saying? It could be the yummiest, juiciest, most delicious peach in the world, but there’s still someone that doesn’t like peaches. And that’s okay. I don’t care, not out of disrespect, I just don’t care, just because I understand that not everyone’s going to like everything. So I’m okay with that,”
she stated.
Ongoing Feud Heating Up Ahead of WrestleMania 42
Currently, Morgan is set to challenge either Women’s World Champion Stephanie Vaquer or WWE Women’s Champion Jade Cargill at WrestleMania 42. Their rivalry intensified during a recent Raw event in Memphis, Tennessee, where Vaquer confronted Morgan at the FedExForum. The confrontation ended with Morgan visibly emotional in the ring, following Vaquer’s aggressive actions towards Morgan’s associate, Intercontinental Champion Dominik Mysterio.
Plans Beyond WWE and Focus on WrestleMania
In addition to her WrestleMania aspirations, Morgan is considering a run in the AAA promotion. She indicated that winning the AAA Mixed Tag Team Championships alongside Dominik Mysterio is highly likely. Despite these opportunities, she remains concentrated on her upcoming match, as the rivalry with Vaquer escalates in personal intensity each week.
Significance of Morgan’s Stance on Criticism
Liv Morgan’s candid approach toward online criticism highlights a growing trend among professional wrestlers who prioritize internal feedback over social media opinions. By focusing on guidance from trusted individuals such as Triple H, producers, and fellow performers, Morgan exemplifies a method of maintaining mental resilience amidst the pressures of public opinion. As the road to WrestleMania 42 progresses, her ability to stay grounded amid both praise and detractors may prove vital to her success and personal well-being.
