Liv Morgan is ready to take everyone with her to the top.
In an interview with Rick Ucchino for Cageside Seats, Liv Morgan spoke about what kind of champion she wants to be. Morgan won the SmackDown Women’s Championship at WWE Money In The Bank, and continues to work to show she has what it takes to be a credible champion.
“As I settled in as champ, it just became very clear and like natural to me, what those responsibilities are and what kind of champion I wanna be. I don’t wanna be the champion that is feeling entitled and is feeling like I’ve gotta look better than everyone all the time. It’s like, no, I wanna be the champion that literally and genuinely lifts up the division. That lifts up the locker room. That lifts up every single person that I work with.”
Morgan continued, explaining that she believes she’s the best woman for the job.
“It’s been a journey. I think in the beginning I just was so in disbelief that I made my dreams come true. That it took a couple weeks for this to like settle in and feel real. It didn’t feel real for what feels like forever. I remember people asking me like, ‘Does it feel real yet?’ And it’s been like a month and a half later and I’m still like, no,” Morgan said. “I feel like over the last couple weeks, the last month or so, it’s really settled. And it doesn’t feel like, yes, thank you, I’m grateful to be champion. It feels like, I’m the SmackDown Women’s Champion. I’m the rightful SmackDown Women’s Champion and I’m perhaps the best woman for the job right now.”
Liv Morgan will defend her title against Ronda Rousey at Extreme Rules on October 8.
