In an absolutely epic twist, Liv Morgan’s quest for revenge turned into a championship triumph in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. At the King & Queen of the Ring event, Morgan toppled the ever-dominant Becky Lynch to seize the WWE Women’s World Championship. But let’s be real, this victory had a sprinkle of Mysterio magic.
Here’s the scoop: Lynch, who’s been flaunting the title since last month (and let’s face it, probably had a few outfits pre-picked for the victory parades), was in the final stretch. She initially snagged the title by ousting Morgan in a chaotic battle royal on WWE Raw. That match was born from the ashes of Morgan’s feud with Rhea Ripley, who, after a backstage ambush by Morgan, had to vacate the title due to injury.
Tonight, the drama was as thick as Lynch’s Irish accent. Enter Dominik Mysterio, Ripley’s partner-in-crime and apparent chair enthusiast. Mysterio, with the subtlety of a bulldozer, slid a chair into the ring. The goal? Have Lynch turn Morgan into a human pancake. But oh, the plot thickens! A moment of utter confusion for Lynch, who might have been rethinking her life choices, opened the door for Morgan. She seized the moment and DDT’d Lynch onto the chair. With Mysterio distracting the referee like a seasoned magician, Morgan scored the pinfall and waltzed out with the title, leaving Lynch and the fans in a state of shock.
