WWE fans were fired up this week after the company dropped its WrestleMania 42 womens division promowithout Womens World Champion Stephanie Vaquer or fan favorite Liv Morgan anywhere to be seen. But now, a new update confirms that Liv Morgan actually filmed promo footageand WWEs decision to exclude her wasnt a snub, it was a calculated move.
According to PWInsider, WWE made a deliberate choice to keep Liv out of the initial promo video because she hasnt returned to TV yet. Instead, they plan to showcase her in future versions once her comeback is official.
That explains why, despite Morgan being a former womens champion and one of WWEs most recognizable stars, she was left out of a promo many assumed would feature the divisions top names. Fans didnt take it lightly, flooding social media with messages like WHERE IS LIV!!??? and They cut Liv, how disrespectful.
Whats really going on behind the scenes? WWE is keeping Liv Morgans return under wraps to maximize the shock factor. After suffering a dislocated shoulder on RAW back in June and undergoing surgery, Liv has quietly returned to the Performance Center and is deep into her rehab process.
Insiders believe WWE wants her return to feel like a huge momentand holding off on promo appearances is part of that strategy. Rumors suggest the company could time her comeback around Royal Rumble 2026 in Saudi Arabia, where Livs popularity is through the roof.
So while her absence may have sparked outrage, it looks like WWE is playing the long gameand when Liv does show up again, theyre planning for it to be unforgettable.
