WWE fans were fired up this week after the company dropped its WrestleMania 42 women’s division promo—without Women’s World Champion Stephanie Vaquer or fan favorite Liv Morgan anywhere to be seen. But now, a new update confirms that Liv Morgan actually filmed promo footage—and WWE’s decision to exclude her wasn’t a snub, it was a calculated move.
According to PWInsider, WWE made a deliberate choice to keep Liv out of the initial promo video because she hasn’t returned to TV yet. Instead, they plan to showcase her in future versions once her comeback is official.
“Liv Morgan filmed material earlier this month for the WrestleMania 42 promo video that premiered this week, but was not showcased. Morgan will be shown in feature versions of the commercials once she makes her return to TV.”
That explains why, despite Morgan being a former women’s champion and one of WWE’s most recognizable stars, she was left out of a promo many assumed would feature the division’s top names. Fans didn’t take it lightly, flooding social media with messages like “WHERE IS LIV!!???” and “They cut Liv, how disrespectful.”
What’s really going on behind the scenes? WWE is keeping Liv Morgan’s return under wraps to maximize the shock factor. After suffering a dislocated shoulder on RAW back in June and undergoing surgery, Liv has quietly returned to the Performance Center and is deep into her rehab process.
Insiders believe WWE wants her return to feel like a huge moment—and holding off on promo appearances is part of that strategy. Rumors suggest the company could time her comeback around Royal Rumble 2026 in Saudi Arabia, where Liv’s popularity is through the roof.
So while her absence may have sparked outrage, it looks like WWE is playing the long game—and when Liv does show up again, they’re planning for it to be unforgettable.
Are you buying WWE’s strategy to save Liv Morgan’s return for a bigger moment—or do you think she deserved to be featured regardless? Drop your take in the comments and let your voice be heard.
