This week, Liv Morgan made a surprise return to SmackDown! The fan favorite star had been out of action for six weeks due to an injury during a tag team match. Liv and her partner Raquel Rodriguez were defending the Women's Tag Team Titles against Damage CTRL's Bayley and Dakota Kai. During the match, Dakota suffered an ACL tear.
Due to Liv's injury, she and Raquel had to relinquish the titles to Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler. On Friday night's show, Ronda and Shayna defeated NXT Women's Tag Team Champions Isla Dawn and Alba Fyre to unify the titles. While ringside for the high stakes bout, Raquel teased coming for the titles, mentioning that "we" wanted them.
The crowd erupted when Liv's music hit and it became clear who Raquel was referring to. Liv and Raquel have their sights set on the titles they never actually lost, and they have Ronda and Shayna in their crosshairs. It's not clear when the match will take place, but the fans can't wait to see what happens next.
Liv responded to an outpouring of support from her fans with a heartfelt tweet. A group of supporters had come together to create a virtual 'get well' card with an image featuring them all holding their hands in a heart shape and the message: 'We [love] U Liv. Get well soon. We will always watch U.'
Earlier in the show, LA Knight defeated Rey Mysterio in singles action and stopped Santos Escobar from adding insult to injury. WWE SmackDown airs Friday nights at 1am on BT Sport 1. Fans can look forward to seeing what the future holds for Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez!
