Liv Morgan & Rhea Ripley SegmentÂ
Liv Morgan:Â Welcome to Monday Night Morgan. I know, I love that for you guys, but I’m going to get straight to the point, because I know Jade and Bianca are here, and they want to pick a fight with the greatest Women’s World Champion of all-time, me. I also know that they didn’t come alone, so neither did we.
Nia Jax: Let’s get a few things straight. I don’t like you. I don’t dislike you. The champ doesn’t think of you at all. Liv, we’ve had our business. I don’t like you. I don’t dislike you. I don’t think of you all. Now, Jade, Bianca, and Naomi. I can’t stop thinking about you. You’re all that I think about.
Bianca BelAir:Â Nia, if you want to do something, then do it. But there’s one thing you were right about. We didn’t come alone.
Liv Morgan: Wow, okay, you guys brought Iyo, that’s like really, really, really cool. But I don’t think you guys are too smart, because one, two, three, four, five, you guys are still outnumbered. The math isn’t really mathing here. And I don’t think there’s anyone dumb enough in the back that wants to be on your team. And unlike you guys, I’m actually really, really, really smart, and I know what’s about to happened, right now. So, who wants to be brave enough and throw the first punch?
