It’s been a hectic couple of weeks for Liv Morgan since winning the SmackDown Women’s Championship. One thing on everyone’s minds however is the fact that Morgan won her championship by cashing in the Money In The Bank briefcase on a hurt Rousey. This has lead to fans calling into question if she can beat Rousey without that crutch.
While speaking on the Pat McAfee Show, Liv talked about her match against Ronda Rousey at WWE SummerSlam. Morgan claimed that she will beat Rousey because she lives and breathes wrestling.
“I know I’m walking into my own championship match as the underdog. I know that people think that I’m only champion because I cashed in on a less than 100% Ronda Rousey. People are doubting I pull through with a Ronda Rousey that’s at 100%, and I’ve sat with this, and I’ve thought about it. Do you know why I know I’m gonna Pat? It’s because I love it more than her and I want it more than her. I didn’t grow up wanting to be a UFC champion. I didn’t grow up wanting to be an Olympic athlete. I grew up wanting to be a WWE Champion. So I’m a WWE superstar through and through that lives and breathes and dies for this business. So that’s why I’m going to survive Ronda Rousey.”
