The Secret WWE History Of Liv Morgan

When news broke that Morgan was to feature in a Network documentary following her around for the last 18 months, interest in the project was immediately high. This is in keeping with almost everything she's been even loosely attached to over the last five years.

Morgan was a cult favourite in the post-Horsewomen era of NXT despite never really receiving anything resembling a push on the black-and-gold brand. Online fans have, for years, wanted her tethered to Bray Wyatt's character as the "Sister Abigail" female in his universe now occupied by Alexa Bliss and the Abby The Witch puppet. The Riott Squad split was greeted with deep deflation, matched only by celebration of their return.

It speaks to a wrestler that has figured out the most important aspect of the art as she continues to work through the others - her connection with the audience feels iron-clad, even during times without fans in stands.

Her unique history will only continue to inform what will surely be a bright future, if she even sees wrestling as part of it going forward. Morgan lives on a farm, has recently been sharing clips of baby chicks she's raising, and has revealed that she's also taking Real Estate exams. Younger stars are realising how unwise it is to try and bump forever. Regardless of her lifelong dedication to the cause, WWE would be smart to make the most of her skills before it's too late.
