Says she doesn’t feel like the underdog going into Saturday’s matchup against Ronda Rousey:
“I don’t feel like the underdog. Especially going into this match, this is where I thrive. This is where Liv Morgan thrives. I think I’ve discovered myself to be a bit of a masochist. In not as much as I like the pain, but like, ‘Okay, may I have more?’ I want to see what can keep me down, and so I’m excited for the challenge of Extreme Rules, I really am, and I’m willing to take any and all the pain.”
How excited she is for the showdown:
“I’m excited like a little sicko. I feel excited. I’m not nervous. I feel excited. I feel happy. I’m like, ‘Thank you for the opportunity. Thank you for allowing me to do this.’ I threw down the challenge and it was accepted, and now here we go, My first-ever Extreme Rules match. , I couldn’t be more happy. You know, last year I was on the pre-show and here I am defending SmackDown Women’s Championship against Ronda Rousey. It’s insane.”
Promises she has more to give to the WWE Universe as champion:
“I have so much more to give in so many different ways. This is just one phase, you know what I mean? I have so much more to give as a champion, as a character, and as a performer. I’m blessed that this phase of my career was cemented with this championship, but literally, the best is yet to come. This is only the beginning, which is scary. But I mean, this is only the beginning.”
