Liv Morgan never dreamed that she’d win a title from Trish Stratus after taking inspiration from the WWE legend for much of her moveset.
In 2023, Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez won the WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles from Becky Lynch and Stratus, who filled in for the injured Lita.
In a recent interview with “Inside The Ropes” magazine, Liv discussed being inspired by the Canadian. She said,
“That was actually my second time in the ring with Trish. But it’s safe to say I never conceivably thought that I’d be wrestling against Trish Stratus, let alone win a championship of her. A lot of my moveset early on was very Trish Stratus-inspired.
“So when I gave myself a moment to really appreciate what it was that I was doing, it really was a pinch-me moment. These moments that you never thought you’d have, and all of a sudden here you are face to face with them and you’re just like, ‘Whoa, how did we get here? How did we finesse this?”
It was revealed shortly after that Stratus had been the one to injure Lita and turned heel on Lynch, kicking off a feud with The Man.
Morgan is the reigning WWE Women’s World Champion and will compete inside WarGames this weekend at WWE Survivor Series: WarGames.
