5 wrestling rumors we hope are true and 5 we hope aren't: Surprising backstage name responsible for Drew McIntyre's push, Reason behind backstage heat between AJ Styles and Paul Heyman revealed?

#2. Hope is true: Backstage perception of Liv Morgan

Liv Morgan is one of the more interesting names in the women's division. She's essentially a homegrown talent and has been dubbed by many as a future Women's Champion. Sean Ross Sapp spoke about this on his Q&A Podcast of Fightful Select, where he discussed Liv Morgan's ceiling as a performer.

According to SRS, Morgan is well-liked backstage and has a high ceiling. However, he attributed her lack of success to WWE having no long-term plans for her:

WWE has no plans for these former AEW wrestlers? Here's why!

I think her ceiling is multiple-time world champion. She works her a** off! Everybody that I talked to likes her, and yeah, I do think that it's died down because they didn't have s*** planned out for her long-term and it's frustrating. They give these people vignettes, so that they can bring them back and then they don't have plans for them.

We hope the part about her being well-liked backstage is true. As for WWE having no long-term plans for her, it's hardly a rumor. The fact that she's been so inconsistently featured shows that WWE isn't fully committed to her yet. However, we believe that her time will come.
