Liv Morgan is going for the 'Money In The Bank' title this Sunday and understands the opportunity it brings, but she faces some stiff competition ...

Yes! I can never forget Jon Moxley talking about flex muscle guys and what's expected of them in and out of the gym, so great. Vince does look great though.

I really liked her chances of winning. She focused more on participating and possibly winning the briefcase more than anyone else involved, and looked like she might've just won for the sake of continuing her feud with Carmella, had she beat Bianca Belair on Smackdown for the Smackdown Women's Championship. During the actual MITB ladder match, she maintained the focus she had built up weeks prior and looked like a star in the making. Unfortunately she came up short, as the win was given to Nikki Cross which i could've done without.

Btw, the stiff competition Liv was facing imo was Zelina Vega and Alexa Bliss. Zelina had just came back, and even though she wasn't a proven wrestler on the main roster, she could've used her win at MITB to build herself up before cashing in many months later, and resumed her feud with Bianca Belair if she was still the champion. Alexa Bliss on the other hand was undefeated in specialty matches and has been getting a big push with her recent gimmick, making her the most dangerous wrestler in the match. If she won, she could've used the MITB briefcase as a demonic toy for a while to persist her character.

At Bleacher Report, they're saying WWE missed the vibe among fans on this one. Liv Morgan's worked hard for this opportunity and she was trending in the right direction. At this rate, her only chance of a belt might be to find a tag partner.
Still, she's shown many times before that she's able to pick herself up, dust herself down and put disappointment behind her. Hopefully, her time will come, and a feud with Zelina Vega has the potential to elevate both of them to the front rank, but it could also sink them like stones.

^ I would hope to just keep seeing her wrestle solo. A feud with Zelina Vega could be good for both of their careers, as they both need build on their own, and so far they have what it takes to make it in the women's division. Zelina's vocals are kind of what puts her ahead of the game if nothing else. She knows a thing or two about what to do in the ring as she's shown in the past in her matches with Asuka but there's room for improvement there, while she's got the trash talking down pact. Liv Morgan on the other hand is one of the few "divas" left who can still make a good impression on today's fans and what they take away from the "Women's Revolution". She's starting to win them over for her efforts and proving to be more than just another company blonde favorite.

Any news with Liv Morgan? With all these cuts happening at WWE, and her former WWE tag colleagues long gone, I'm wondering if she has any kind of future with the company. If she is let go, AEW need to swoop for her signature, while Impact! need to bring her in to fight Deonna Purrazzo in an all-Italian-American special.

^ I think Liv Morgan is safe. One of the reasons Ruby Riott was let go of was probably so Liv could prosper as a singles competitor. She's been given a push and so far she's been a success with the fans even though she didn't win the big one at MITB. I don't think her push will stop there because she does have potential to be Smackdown Women's Champion in the future, but for now she's building some momentum.
The other wrestling companies would probably loan Liv a hand if she were let go right now. She's got people's attention, and companies like AEW or Impact would probably wanna get a hold of her while she's rising.
