Liv Morgan Explains Turning On WWE Crush For Dominik Mysterio

Liv Morgan’s crush on a major WWE star was common knowledge until she found love with Dominik Mysterio.

The former Women’s World Champion grew up a WWE fan. She previously admitted to having a crush on John Cena and being his biggest fan in her younger years.

However, the Judgment Day member shocked the world upon her return from injury at Survivor Series by initially teasing siding with Cena against Dirty Dom before turning on The Leader of the Cenation and kicking him below the belt.

Morgan’s actions helped her on-screen boyfriend recapture the Intercontinental Title from the WWE legend.

Why Did Liv Morgan Turn on John Cena?

In a recent interview with Brad Gilmore, Morgan was asked what it meant to her to be given the opportunity to share the ring with John Cena at Survivor Series.

The RAW star did not break character as she answered the question. Instead, she admitted to being Cena’s biggest fan growing up, confessing that her feelings for the 17-time world champion changed after meeting Dominik Mysterio.

You know, back in the day growing up a WWE fan, I obviously was a John Cena fan. I was like number one Chain Gang soldier. Loved John Cena. But then, you know, I grew up. I got smarter. I got wiser. I realized that Dominik Mysterio is the real [chef’s kiss gesture] in WWE.

And so, to have that full circle moment, to go from a fan of John Cena to kicking him right in the…, helping Daddy Dom win, regain his championship in his hometown of San Diego, it was so special to me, and I wouldn’t have missed it for the world.

It was an iconic moment for Dominik. It was an iconic moment for me. Maybe not so much for John Cena, but he was in the ring with two superstars, so that should be good enough for him. [5:20 onwards]
