Liv Morgan Reveals What Cameras Missed That Made Her Cry On WWE RAW

Liv Morgan recently addressed her crying on live television.

On the February 16, 2026, episode of Monday Night Raw, Morgan took part in a backstage sit-down interview with Michael Cole, where she discussed her 10-year journey in WWE and the delay in choosing her opponent for WrestleMania 42.

During the interview, the Women’s World Champion Stephanie Vaquer interrupted and confronted Liv Morgan, primarily speaking in Spanish, which Dominik Mysterio translated into Liv’s ear.

Vaquer cut a promo on Morgan, criticizing her lack of sacrifice in reaching her current position in WWE. She also took shots at Morgan for hiding behind The Judgment Day and her on-screen boyfriend, Dominik Mysterio.

Vaquer then warned Liv Morgan that if she chooses her as her WrestleMania opponent, she would show her what a “real champion” looks like. After Vaquer left the area, Morgan broke down and walked off without finishing the interview.

Why Liv Morgan Cried on WWE Raw 2/16?

In a recent exclusive interview with Good Karma Wrestling, Liv Morgan revealed that she was not actually crying because of the insults Vaquer made. Instead, Morgan explained that she became teary-eyed because a large piece of dust had flown into her eye.

Morgan said, “You didn’t see that giant particle of dust smack me in the eye? [Well, I didn’t realize there was a particle of dust. I thought she made you cry on national TV live, and I thought you got to get revenge for making you cry.] I had never seen a particle of dust this big in my whole entire life. I cannot believe the camera didn’t pick it up. It literally smacked me in my face and almost like knocked me out of my seat. I was like, “Whoa, my eyes.”” (From 7:16)
