Liv Morgan Surprisingly Defends Adam Pearce’s Controversial Finn Balor Decision

Liv Morgan defended Adam Pearce’s decision about Finn Balor, but also praised her fellow Judgment Day member. 

Recently, WWE organized the Royal Rumble in Saudi Arabia on January 31st, 2026. Some of the top names entered the men’s match, such as Roman Reigns, Cody Rhodes, Bron Breakker, Brock Lesnar, and others.

The person missing from the men’s match was Finn Balor. CM Punk had advised Balor to cut himself from The Judgment Day and get himself into the Royal Rumble. However, Adam Pearce told The Prince that the slots were full.

Liv Morgan gives her two cents about Finn Balor not being in the Royal Rumble

ON TMZ’s Inside The Ring, The Miracle Kid was asked for her thoughts on Adam Pearce not giving Finn Balor a slot in the Royal Rumble men’s match.

She revealed that while Balor should have been in the match, he did have an opportunity to the World Heavyweight Championship right before that which he could not successfully win. However, she does believe he could have won if he were in the men’s match.

Yeah, you know, I do think that, um, Finn should have been in the Rumble, but also maybe there is a little bit of logic to what Adam Pearce said. He did have a title match the week prior. He did have an opportunity. Um, but I do think if Finn was in the Royal Rumble match, he could have won it. [He’s] Incredible. Incredible.
