5 Early Successes Of Triple H's Run As Head Of WWE Creative (And 5 Failures)

10. Failure - Liv Morgan's Run

For the past few years, Liv Morgan has built up a real connection with the WWE fans and has garnered a ground swell of support that ultimately led her to claiming the Money in the Bank briefcase earlier this year. If her unsuccessful attempts at dethroning Becky Lynch at the beginning of the year were the litmus test, then she clearly passed it.

Fans were ecstatic to see the former Riott Squad member ascend the ladder and grab her shot, and it seemed like WWE were on a pretty clear path to building a new, credible champion. The only problem was, Liv is a babyface and the champion at the time, was Ronda Rousey.

Nothing against Liv, but she just doesn't have the credibility in the bank to topple the former UFC fighter, and so, just like they unforgivably did with Big E last year, WWE had her cash in on an injured Rousey to essentially steal the belt.

Enter Triple H, who had the chance to course correct pretty quickly, but all he offered us was her successfully retaining the belt against Rousey at SummerSlam under dubious circumstances and then claim she was worthy. The fans didn't agree, as show by how some have booed Liv Morgan and left the WWE Smackdown! Women's Champion visibly rattled.

A similar fate followed against Shayna Baszler, and right now, Morgan feels dead in the water as a credible, babyface champion.
