Liv Morgan Gets Real About Being Upset Over Joining The Riott Squad

Liv Morgan is spilling her feelings about her WWE debut with The Riott Squad—and it’s not what fans might expect. The SmackDown star recently opened up to Inside The Ropes and admitted she wasn’t exactly thrilled when she found out she’d be joining a faction with Ruby Riott and Sarah Logan.

“I was actually a little bit upset,” Liv confessed. “I didn’t view myself as a tag team wrestler; I viewed myself as a singles competitor. Also, I was only a singles competitor up until that time, so I wasn’t too excited at the thought of it, even though I was so excited at the thought of finally being on RAW or SmackDown.”

But it didn’t take long for things to change. Liv says the chemistry with Ruby and Sarah was instant, and the three quickly formed a real bond behind the scenes.

“I just clicked with Ruby and Sarah so fast,” Liv said. “When you look at the three of us, we couldn’t look more different. But once we got to spend so much time together and peel back the layers, we realised we were way more similar than we ever could have guessed. So we created a true sisterhood.”

Looking back, Liv admits that she had no idea just how much she needed them.

“I learned super fast just how much I did [need them], and how valuable and important they’d be to me and my career. I got to learn so much from them, and I got to lean on them. I couldn’t be more grateful and thankful for them.”

It’s safe to say The Riott Squad became an iconic part of WWE’s women’s division, and Liv Morgan’s reflections only underline their importance.
