Liv Morgan is once again your Women’s World Champion after a chaotic Triple Threat match at WWE Money in the Bank on Saturday. It was a wild finish to a rivalry that’s been cooking for months, and Morgan capitalized big time.
How the Women’s World Title Was Won (Again!)
In the final, frantic moments of the match, Stephanie Vaquer seemed to have one goal: take Becky Lynch out of the equation. Lynch was on the apron, outside the ropes, when Vaquer blasted her with a head-butt, then followed up with a kick that sent Lynch crashing onto a table on the floor below. With Vaquer totally focused on “The Man,” Liv Morgan saw her opening. She swooped in, hit Vaquer with her signature Oblivion, and that was all she wrote. Three seconds later, Morgan had pinned Vaquer and recaptured the Women’s World Title.
The Triple Threat Match That Nobody Expected
This title change has been building for a while, and honestly, the way it came together was pure madness. Remember when Vaquer dropped the title to Morgan at WrestleMania 42? Well, Vaquer won it back at a live event in her home country of Chile on September 12. And get this: Becky Lynch was the special guest referee in that match and flat-out refused to count for Liv at one point, which directly paved the way for Vaquer’s win.
Since Vaquer returned from injury back in August, she and Lynch actually found a common enemy in Liv Morgan. That led to some mutual respect, sure, but there was always this underlying tension because both Vaquer and Becky wanted to be champion. Liv wasn’t having Vaquer’s title win, lobbying hard for a rematch because of how Lynch officiated the bout. Becky, meanwhile, was chasing her own shot at the gold.
To figure out who would challenge Vaquer at Money in the Bank, Morgan and Lynch were booked in a No. 1 Contender’s match on the go-home episode of Raw. Of course, The Judgment Day got heavily involved on Liv’s behalf, which brought Vaquer herself storming to the ring to try and even the odds. But then, in a moment of pure chaos, Lynch accidentally punched Vaquer! La Primera was absolutely infuriated and attacked both Becky and Liv, causing a double disqualification. That’s when Vaquer, fed up with the whole mess, called out Raw general manager Adam Pearce and demanded to face both Morgan and Lynch at Money in the Bank. Pearce actually obliged her.
Stephanie Vaquer willingly stacked the odds against herself, taking on two of the top Superstars in the women’s division. And tonight, that decision came back to haunt her. Liv Morgan is now, once again, the Women’s World Champion. What a wild ride!
