While watching the 2019 Elimination Chamber premium live event, Sanchez tweeted about his attraction to Liv Morgan.

"Corey Graves is calling this match? Also, I have a huge crush on @YaOnlyLivvOnce . #WWEChamber," he wrote.

That night, Morgan teamed up with her Riott Squad partner Sarah Logan to compete in an Elimination Chamber match for the inaugural WWE Women's Tag Team Championships. However, they failed to capture the titles as Sasha Banks & Bayley emerged victorious.


#2. Liv Morgan had a crush on WWE legend John Cena

Growing up, Liv Morgan was a WWE fan. The former SmackDown Women's Champion admired WWE Hall of Famer Lita as a kid as she felt they were somewhat similar.

Morgan also disclosed in a few interviews that she had a big crush on 16-time World Champion John Cena growing up.

"I loved John Cena, I thought he was the s**t. I had such a crush on him. He would pump his little sneakers, and I'd pump my sneakers, and I didn't even have pumps. I would just [pretend] to push my little pumps [while watching him on TV]. I thought he was amazing. He has been, whether I know it or not, a subconscious influence on my career. You know because he wore sneakers for the majority of his career, so I think maybe it's something that kind of embedded in my mind, and maybe a reason why I like to wear sneakers," she told Complex.

Morgan later became Cena's co-worker. As the Leader of the Cenation returned to RAW earlier this year to celebrate the 20th anniversary of his main roster debut, the former member of the Riott Squad took a picture with him backstage.
