Liv Morgan Reveals The Origin Of Her Blue Tongue Gimmick
One of the things that Liv Morgan became known for in her early days on the main roster was her blue tongue. The blond haired member of the Riott Squad was often the more colorful one of the trio, and the main feature was the blue tongue that often got noticed by fans and the announcers.
Liv will be the topic of an upcoming WWE Chronicle special, and in a preview video released, the topic of her blue tongue comes up. It turns out it was a happy little accident.
The trio was about to arrive on television and both her and Ruby Riott had been munching on a snack. Riott had been eating an orange Tic Tac and Morgan a blue Jolly Rancher. The two went out to television and the rest is history. While Riott got “talked to” about her orange tongue, nobody said anything to Morgan about her own tongue, and thus it continued.
“I was with Ruby and Sarah before we were about to wrestle on TV, and Ruby popped like a Tic Tac in her mouth and there was a Jolly Rancher and I always favored the blue ones so I popped that in my mouth. And then right before I went out, I looked in the mirror and noticed my tongue was blue. But I didn’t really think anything of it, I wasn’t going to like, y’know, stick it out and Ruby had an orange tongue. We just ate candy, we hadn’t thought about it. And then we came to the back, they’re like why does Ruby have an orange tongue? No one said anything about my blue tongue, so I was just like maybe I’ll just keep doing it. And so Ruby got talked to about her orange Tic Tac tongue and no one said anything about my blue tongue. So I just kept doing it to see, you know, how far I could go with it. And it turned into its own thing where fans are eating Jolly Ranchers or whatever they can find to make their tongue blue.”
