WWE Women's World Champion Liv Morgan will defend her title against Rhea Ripley at SummerSlam next week. While Ripley is focused on regaining the championship, the match has even greater significance for Morgan.
Why Liv Morgan's SummerSlam Win Is Best for Business
Rhea Ripley attacked Morgan backstage last July, costing her and Raquel Rodriguez the WWE Women's Tag Team Championships. A scheduled match between Morgan and Ripley the following week ended abruptly when Ripley brutally attacked Morgan with a steel chair, sidelining her for six months.
Liv Morgan made a shocking comeback earlier this year at the Royal Rumble. Since then, she has been focused on revenge against Rhea Ripley. Morgan called the mission "The Liv Morgan Revenge Tour." She injured Ripley and eventually regained the championship, but her revenge didn't stop there. Morgan also set her sights on Ripley's on-screen partner, Dominik Mysterio.
The feud between Liv Morgan and Rhea Ripley has become one of the biggest WWE storylines, with their highly anticipated match taking place at SummerSlam. This showdown has been building for months, and the stakes for the match have never been higher. Morgan recently opened up about why this match is so crucial to her.
