5 Surprises for SmackDown: Top heel set to turn face, Popular star to be denied MITB spot?

#4. Liv Morgan's MITB woes to continue on SmackDown?

Liv Morgan should already have a spot in the women's Money in the Bank match

Sonya Deville hasn't exactly established herself as a fair authority figure - both on RAW and SmackDown. So far, Deville announced Carmella as the first competitor to "qualify" for the Women's Money in the Bank ladder match from SmackDown.

Last week, Zelina Vega returned to WWE as Deville announced her as the second women's entrant from SmackDown. Liv Morgan already defeated Carmella multiple times but didn't get a spot in the match.

Last week on the Blue brand, Morgan's momentum continued and she defeated the returning Vega. It seems inevitable that Liv Morgan will qualify for the women's ladder match, but it may take one more obstacle.

While it would be surprising, Sonya Deville may announce the third female entrant from SmackDown, only for Liv Morgan to win again. It's certainly a good way to build Morgan as a babyface on SmackDown as crowds return, but she could have more obstacles to face this week.
