The last few weeks have witnessed a budding feud between WWE SmackDown Superstars Zelina Vega and Liv Morgan. The latter is being built as a babyface, and she has received a lot of support from the audience lately. Morgan is scheduled to face Carmella at Extreme Rules on Sunday, but she has to face Vega before that.

Both Liv Morgan and Zelina Vega have not received considerable TV time on WWE SmackDown in almost two months. They have a huge opportunity to rekindle the public’s interest in their respective careers by delivering a good match tonight. Owing to Vega’s newfound alliance with Carmella, we can also expect a surprise appearance from The Queen of Staten Island.

Last week, she escaped the ring during their tag team match against Morgan and Tomi Storm while claiming her nose was broken. She could return with a vengeance and launch a vicious attack on Liv Morgan after she is done fighting with Zelina Vega. This could possibly lead to an exciting stipulation being added to their match at Extreme Rules.

It is no secret that WWE SmackDown’s women have taken a serious hit in terms of their booking, but good story-telling will help the creative team restore some of the division’s lost credibility.
