WHAT’S NEXT FOR LIV MORGAN? DISCOVER THE JUDGMENT DAY STAR’S PLAN FOR RAW DOMINANCE
Liv Morgan returns! The Judgment Day member beat Lyra Valkyria in Tampa and sent a terrifying warning to the WWE women's division.
Liv Morgan is back and already making waves in WWE's women's division! After being out for six months because of a shoulder injury, the Judgment Day member jumped back in the ring this past weekend at a WWE Holiday Tour show in Tampa, Florida.
She won against Lyra Valkyria at the Amalie Arena, and she was seriously hyped up. A video surfaced after the match where she straight-up warned the other wrestlers backstage, calling herself the greatest of all time.
"I'm the greatest of all time," Liv Morgan yelled into the camera. I'm the greatest of all time, are you kidding me? I hope that everyone in the back is terrified, because they should be. By the way, Nikki Bella hung out with her ex-boyfriend at WWE Raw!
This match was Morgan’s first since June, which proves she’s healed from that injury that messed up her summer. Her tag team partner, Raquel Rodriguez, talked about Morgan’s recovery when she was on Going Ringside. Rodriguez said that Morgan came back sooner than expected because she was just itching to get back in the game.
Knowing Liv, I'm not shocked at all. That girl really wants it; she wants to win a championship. She just wants to improve and be the best she can be, Rodriguez said. Rodriguez mentioned how tough it is to sit out and how that time just made Morgan want it more. As an athlete, being sidelined due to sickness or injury sucks. Watching from the sidelines makes you want to come back stronger. The fact that she got through rehab, got back to 100%, and came back early—I'm so glad she's back in Judgment Day and on Monday Night Raw. Everyone else is too. "We're all happy she's back," Rodriguez added.
We don’t know when Morgan will be back on TV in a match. Right now, she doesn't have anything scheduled for this week's WWE Monday Night Raw.
JANUARY 5 PREVIEW: CM PUNK VS BRON BREAKKER HEADLINES THE NETFLIX RAW PREMIERE
Kevin Nash calls CM Punk "slow" and "done," urging Bron Breakker to take the title on January 5. Get the full WWE legend reaction.
A WWE Hall of Famer thinks CM Punk isn't what he used to be.
On his Kliq This podcast, WWE legend Kevin Nash talked about a fan's idea: CM Punk should keep the World Heavyweight Championship against Bron Breakker on January 5 (the first-year show of WWE RAW on Netflix) and then lose to him at WrestleMania 42.
After seeing CM Punk in last week's RAW main event, Kevin Nash said CM Punk seems slower and maybe finished. He thinks Bron Breakker should win the title from Punk on January 5.
I watched Punk in the main event last Monday. First, if you're the WWE heavyweight champ and you wrestle in a t-shirt, that's not great! Second, his punches look super slow. He just looks slow. I think he's done. I think Bron should beat him.”
Kevin Nash had said before that it was too early for CM Punk to lose the title and that he should beat Bron Breakker. It seems his mind has changed after seeing last week's RAW.
Another WWE Legend Thinks CM Punk Needs Gunther as His Next Opponent
On Busted Open Radio, WWE and ECW legend Tommy Dreamer said why he thinks CM Punk needs Gunther as his next rival.
“Everyone in WWE should want to be world champion. Whether it’s Cody Rhodes or not, everyone in WWE should be aiming for that, Dreamer said. I'm talking about Monday Night Raw, so I'm talking about CM Punk. CM Punk needs that rival. He needs that guy.
I'm not saying anyone is wrong, but how I saw the whole Gunther/John Cena thing, I saw it in a lot of ways. He then explained why Gunther is a good fit, after everything that happened with John Cena.
“Here’s what I think: John Cena is done, and Gunther is the new thing. That’s why I thought it was right for John Cena to lose like that. Watching now, for two weeks in a row, that decision is making more sense because Gunther is getting more heat. If we're hinting at a CM Punk–Gunther showdown, that's a tough challenge for CM Punk.”
ENDING SOON: RANDY ORTON RETIREMENT TOUR RUMORS EXPLODE AFTER ERIC BISCHOFF’S LATEST PLEA
Eric Bischoff wants a Randy Orton retirement tour in 2026. After Cena's 2025 exit, see who else is hanging up the boots next year.
Randy Orton's a lock for the WWE Hall of Fame, and he needs a great goodbye when he finally calls it quits. That's what wrestling expert Eric Bischoff said on his podcast.
Remember when John Cena retired in 2025 after a year-long farewell tour? It had lots of surprises, old faces, and awesome matches. Still, it was a little sad seeing Cena, “Mr. Never Give Up,” lose to the next big thing. Cena and Orton even wrapped up their big feud at Backlash that May. Now that Cena’s done, other big stars might be thinking about hanging up their boots, too. AJ Styles already said he’s retiring in 2026.
Rey Mysterio might also do his last match next year. He’s talked about it recently. With all the drama between him and Dominik, who’s a big deal in Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide, Rey could retire after one last match against his son. And then there’s Chris Jericho from AEW, who might come back to WWE to end his career. Word is WWE wants to give him a retirement storyline.
Also, John Cena may have hinted that Brock Lesnar might retire in 2026 at SummerSlam. He said that because the show's in Minneapolis, Minnesota, which is a big place for Lesnar. With so many wrestlers possibly retiring soon, Eric Bischoff said he's hoping for a great sendoff for Randy Orton, who he really likes.
Eric Bischoff Wants Randy Orton to Get a Great WWE Goodbye
On his podcast, 83 Weeks, Eric Bischoff said he really wants WWE to do a Randy Orton retirement tour because he’s a real fan of the 14-time World Champion.
Bischoff really likes Orton and thinks he deserves the best possible ending to his career.
The retirement tour I really want to see is Randy Orton's. I think Randy's an amazing performer. "He's so good that I want him to get the goodbye he deserves," Eric Bischoff said.
