Liv Morgan has opened up about her 2026 WWE Women’s Royal Rumble 2026 win on January 31.
Year after year since the Women’s Royal Rumble was first introduced in 2018, Liv Morgan entered the match but left empty handed.
That changed this year however, as unlike 2023 and 2024, which saw her finish as the runner-up overall, Morgan managed to eliminate Tiffany Stratton to win her first Royal Rumble.
Speaking with Chris Van Vliet on Insight, Liv Morgan opened up about what her big win meant to her personally after coming close on so many occasions.
She said:
“I’ve been in every single Royal Rumble since we started doing these in 2018. I think myself and Natalya are the only women that can say that at this point. I’ve had every position in that match. I’ve come out first, I’ve come out last. I’ve had the fastest elimination time. I’ve had the time for the shortest elimination.
“To finally be the bride and not the bridesmaid this year, and not only that, but to solidify myself a WrestleMania spot where I was able to pick a champion of my choosing. None of that is lost on me. Even 11 years in, none of that is lost on me.
“So I don’t know, I kind of felt like how I felt when I won the Money in the Bank match. Just kind of like, overwhelming awe and gratitude and it just being so surreal that all I can do was just look out into the audience, just because I wanted to really remember that feeling and try to, like, I said, just be really present in the moment. So it was a dream come true.”
Liv Morgan’s WWE WrestleMania 42 Status Up In The Air
While the wait has been long for Liv Morgan to get her first major world title match at WrestleMania, there are fears among fans that The Judgment Day star could be forced to wait even longer for her big moment.
On Monday’s episode of WWE Raw (April 6) Stephanie Vaquer jumped Morgan from behind during a backstage segment, leading to Liv and Judgment Day stablemate Roxanne Perez to clash heads.
Morgan and Perez both sported large bumps on their heads as a result of the incident, and it was reported by the Wrestling Observer’s Bryan Alvarez that the pair were put into concussion protocol.
As of now Morgan vs. Vaquer is a “wait and see,” and it’s unclear what WWE will do in the event that the match can’t go ahead.
