Current WWE Star Details Struggles With Imposter Syndrome
This WWE wrestler sends inspiring message to fans: "I'm just like you".
Liv Morgan has told WWE's The Bump that she often struggles with imposter syndrome and "feeling like I never had the credentials to fulfil what I needed to do here".
The former SmackDown Women's Champion also told the show that imposter syndrome has been her "biggest hurdle" since joining the company back in 2014. She added that she "came from nothing" - WWE didn't poach Liv from another wrestling promotion, and she wasn't some gifted sports star.
She learned to wrestle in WWE's system, and has been built from the ground up to become a main roster stalwart. That journey hasn't always been easy, especially mentally. At times, Morgan says she's doubted herself more than anyone, and wondered if she even belonged in such lofty spots at all.
Liv uses this personal journey as fuel though, and hopes being so candid about it helps fans realise that she "was literally you". In other words, Morgan was a wrestling fan who turned that into a career in the biz. If she can do it, so can countless others.
That's a sweet, inspiring message.
