As the curtain falls on WWE Survivor Series: WarGames 2024, the aftermath of the grueling matches echoes through the hallways, leaving champions reeling. Amidst the chaos, a sense of fury and regret simmers beneath the surface, threatening to explode at any moment. The ire of the moment is reserved for none other than Liv Morgan, the current Women’s World Champion.

The 30-year-old star, known for her fiery spirit and unwavering dedication to the craft, has been riding high on her recent successes as a member of Judgment Day. However, her confidence was shaken to its core when she suffered a pinfall loss at Survivor Series: WarGames 2024. The gut-wrenching defeat served as a stark reminder that even the greatest of champions are not invincible.

In the aftermath of the match, Morgan’s long-time friend and fellow Judgment Day member, Raquel Rodriguez, could not help but apologize for her inability to protect the champion. The former WWE Women’s Tag Team Champion took Morgan in her arms, a mix of regret and empathy etched on her face. The tender moment served as a poignant reminder that even in the midst of unbridled competition, the bonds of friendship can be a powerful force.

As the dust settles, Morgan is left to confront the daunting task of defending her title against IYO SKY at Saturday Night’s Main Event on December 14, 2024. The Japanese superstar is no stranger to the world of professional wrestling, boasting a laundry list of accomplishments that would make even the most seasoned veteran take notice. With her title on the line, Liv Morgan is faced with the unenviable task of preparing for what promises to be a battle for the ages.

In the days leading up to the highly anticipated showdown, Morgan faces an uphill climb, both physically and mentally. Her scheduled tag team match against SKY and Kairi Sane on the fallout episode of RAW is merely a warm-up for the main event. However, it serves as a timely reminder that even the greatest champions are mere mortals, capable of suffering setbacks and losses.

The aftermath of the tag team match leaves much to be desired, as Rodriguez’s actions in the ring serve as a harbinger of what is to come. The former tag team champion, driven by a mix of anger and regret, takes out her frustration on the Damage CTRL duo, with Rodriguez sending Rhea Ripley crashing into the edge of the announce table. The incident leaves Ripley reeling, her right orbital socket bearing the brunt of the brutal attack.

In the days leading up to Saturday Night’s Main Event, fans can expect a feud to erupt between Rodriguez and Ripley, with the two women set to clash on the go-home episode of RAW. The build-up promises to be intense, as the two rivals engage in a series of bitter exchanges, each looking to gain the upper hand in their upcoming showdown.

As the stage is set for Saturday Night’s Main Event, one thing is clear – the world of WWE professional wrestling is a place where friendships are forged and broken, where regrets are made and apologies are offered. In this cutthroat world, only the strongest and most resilient will emerge victorious, and it is up to the champions to prove their mettle and defend their titles against all comers.
