Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez were WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions, but then Morgan went down with a shoulder injury. Her expected recovery time is unknown at this point, but she will be out long enough that WWE needed to find new champions. That could be the spark for a change that Liv Morgan needed.

During Wrestling Observer Radio, Bryan Alvarez floated a theory that Liv Morgan will come back as a heel. After all, it didn’t take Raquel Rodriguez long to pick Shotzi as her partner.
Dave Meltzer then chimed in to add a little weight to that idea. After all, Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez were not supposed to be a championship team.
You know, they were never really supposed to be a long term tag team anyway. They were thrown together because Ronda was hurt, and they were trying to bide time.
Becky Lynch even admitted that her WWE Women’s Tag Team Title reign with Lita was not supposed to happen. Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler were earmarked for those belts, but Rousey’s injury caused WWE to change plans. Now, with Rousey and Baszler in the 4-way match next week, we will have to see if WWE goes back to that idea.
Liv Morgan will be missed, but her fans will be overjoyed when she returns. She also landed a really cool movie role, along with Charlotte Flair, recently. Only time will tell if they are immediately swerved with a big-time heel turn as well.
What’s your take on Liv Morgan possibly turning heel? Sound off in the comments!
