Liv Morgan has shared a revealing look behind the curtain ahead of WrestleMania 42, opening up about a pre-match routine that speaks volumes about the pressure she carries into the ring.
The admission came during a recent interview in Las Vegas, as Morgan prepares for one of the biggest matches of her career — but the real story starts before the bell even rings.
Liv Morgan opens up about pre-match anxiety ahead of WrestleMania 42
Speaking on Insight with Chris Van Vliet, Morgan revealed that she frequently deals with intense nerves before competing. “If you found me right before my match? Throwing up in a garbage can,” she said, adding that it happens “maybe like four out of seven times.”
Rather than viewing it as a setback, Morgan framed it as a sign of how much she cares. She described the reaction as performance anxiety, but one rooted in passion rather than fear. In her words, it’s not something that holds her back — it’s something that reminds her what’s at stake.
That perspective has only strengthened since her return from a shoulder injury. Morgan explained that her time away gave her a deeper appreciation for her career, calling herself “grateful,” “lucky,” and “blessed” to be living her dream. For her, WWE isn’t just a job — it’s the source of nearly everything meaningful in her life.
Interestingly, the Judgment Day star noted that she isn’t currently feeling overwhelming pressure despite WrestleMania looming.
Instead, she’s taking things day by day, focusing on preparation rather than the magnitude of the moment. It’s a calm-before-the-storm approach — even if the storm still makes a quick pit stop backstage.
Morgan heads into WrestleMania 42 after winning the 2026 Women’s Royal Rumble and choosing to challenge Stephanie Vaquer for the Women’s World Championship. Their rivalry has turned personal in recent weeks, with physical confrontations raising the stakes.
As the biggest stage approaches, Liv Morgan’s honesty adds another layer to her story. The nerves may hit before the entrance music — but once the bell rings, it’s all business, no count-outs.
