Rhea Ripley's incredible 380-day reign as WWE Women's Champion sadly ended on RAW this week. 'Mami' didn't lose her title to another superstar but was forced to vacate it after being injured. The Eradicator might want to keep an eye on her stablemates in The Judgment Day as her attacker could be coming for her throne.

Liv Morgan was behind Rhea Ripley's shoulder injury which could put her on the shelf for several months. The former SmackDown Women's Champion threw her rival into a wall backstage as she enacted revenge for missing several months.

The 2022 Miss Money in the Bank winner informed Rhea Ripley that she intended to take everything away from her. She laughed at a broken and enraged former Women's Champion on RAW after seeing her vacate the title.

Liv may feel that sending Ripley to the medical table isn't enough to satisfy her revenge tour. She could be looking to take her spot as the figurehead of The Judgment Day and she has a mean streak befitting the group.


Liv Morgan hinted at a heel turn, which could lead to her replacing Rhea Ripley as The Judgment Day leader

Liv Morgan spoke to Cathy Kelley backstage after attacking Rhea Ripley on RAW. The crowd at The Bell Centre in Montreal booed her during her back and forth with the Judgment Day superstar in the aisle.

The RAW star told Cathy Kelley that this was just the start of her revenge tour and it would end with her as World Champion. She was also bemused by the responses of fans and her peers backstage, suggesting hypocrisy:

"I'm a little bit confused by that reaction, and I feel like I'm walking around back here and everyone is mad at me and for what? I'm not the bad guy here. Where was the sympathy for me when Rhea literally tore my shoulder out of my socket and put me on the shelf for eight months? Oh yeah, there wasn't any!"

Rhea Ripley has perhaps become the most popular women's wrestler in pro wrestling over this past year. WWE could decide she should return as a babyface to fully help drive her connection with fans. This would lead to Morgan taking the heel role, and she has plenty of reasons to play the bad guy.


Liv has valuable stable experience that could help The Judgment Day

Liv Morgan is no stranger to being a part of a group, as she was a member of The Riott Squad. This was a three-woman stable consisting of herself, Ruby Riott, and Sarah Logan.

The Riott Squad debuted in November 2017 and although they didn't make a huge impact, it helped Liv Morgan acclimatize herself with the main roster. They disbanded in June 2021, with Ruby Riott heading to AEW, where she now performs as Ruby Soho.

However, Liv could use her experience to help The Judgment Day if she were to join. Rhea Ripley was the only women's wrestler in the group and they could look to branch out, especially with the introduction of a women's NXT North American Championship.

Liv sent her former stablemates a message on their sixth-year anniversary in November:

"Happy Riott Squad day to my sisters for life. No matter how much time passes or how much changes in our lives, I love you both unconditionally forever."

Sarah Logan arguably could do with a fresh character, having become a comedy act as Valhalla. Morgan could look to recruit her as a Judgment Day member to add more female strength to the group.

Another women's star who could be in her sights is Nikki Cross. Fans will remember her turning on Rhea Ripley when she was formerly known as Nikki A.S.H.
