The wrestling world witnessed a dramatic moment on this week’s RAW as the Liv Morgan vs Nikki Bella WWE Evolution match storyline gained momentum, following an intense confrontation between the two stars. Speculation has exploded within the WWE Universe about what direction officials could take with these popular Superstars after Monday’s unexpected incident.
Escalating Tension on Monday Night RAW
Nikki Bella made her surprise return to RAW, days after her confirmation during Money In the Bank, and brought her usual confidence. The 2021 Hall of Famer commended several female Superstars but, after a viral incident, she quickly shifted the spotlight to the upcoming Evolution premium event. Liv Morgan, one of the current Women’s Tag Team Champions, disrupted the segment, leading to a heated exchange that ended with Morgan delivering her Oblivion finisher to Bella in front of the crowd. This clash added new fuel to rumors that the second all-women’s show may center around their rivalry.
Future Plans for Liv Morgan and Nikki Bella
Reports circulating backstage, including from Ringside News, indicate that WWE’s Creative Writing Team is designing a continuing storyline between Morgan and Bella, rather than a single confrontation. Despite earlier speculations regarding Nikki’s role after RAW, backstage insiders have clarified that her interaction with Morgan marks the beginning of a larger feud.
The conflict is expected to build towards a high-stakes match at WWE Evolution, scheduled for July 13. However, early reports suggest this showdown may not be their first head-to-head encounter in singles competition. Another match being discussed would see Nikki teaming up with her sister Brie Bella for a tag bout against Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez, with the Women’s Tag Team Championship at stake, bringing even more star power and unpredictability to the anticipated event.
Reflections on Past Encounters and Ongoing Uncertainty
As of now, WWE officials have not made any final decisions and continue to weigh potential storylines. Nikki Bella’s surprise Royal Rumble return in January kept fans guessing, and although she had previously hinted at a comeback, updates in April suggested that Brie Bella had yet to be contacted by the company, leading to more uncertainties about the storyline’s direction.
The evolving narrative harks back to 2018, when Nikki and Liv found themselves competing against one another in multiple matches during the Bella Twins’ feud with The Riott Squad. Memorable moments include The Bellas defeating Liv Morgan and Sarah Logan on RAW, followed weeks later by the Riott Squad besting The Bellas and Natalya, and a six-woman matchup at Super Showdown 2018 featuring Nikki, Brie, and Ronda Rousey overcoming The Riott Squad.
What Lies Ahead for the Women’s Division
This renewed rivalry, and the hinted Liv Morgan vs Nikki Bella WWE Evolution match, could shape the landscape of WWE’s Women’s division in unpredictable ways. As both Superstars have strong followings and a history of competitive matchups, fans and insiders alike remain tense, waiting for official confirmation of what’s next. With WWE Evolution on the horizon and creative directions in flux, anticipation continues to build for a showdown that could leave a significant mark on the division’s history.
