Liv Morgan is the new WWE Women’s World Champion — and she wants everyone to know she has absolutely zero remorse about how she got there. In her WrestleMania 42 vlog, Morgan addressed the manner of her victory over Stephanie Vaquer with a gleeful disregard for honorable competition that served as both a character statement and a direct response to months of criticism about her reliance on Judgment Day allies.
“You know what I was really thinking about? The amount of times Stephanie said — it stuck in my mind throughout these last few months — is that I hide behind my friends. She’s right. Do you think that I care if I didn’t win this honorably? Do you think I care that I cheated? Do you think I hid behind my friends? I promise you, there’s not one bone in my body or fiber of my being that cares because I am the greatest women’s world champion of all time. Tonight, I got to cement that legacy and it will live on forever and ever. I’m so much better than Stephanie Vaquer,” Morgan said before announcing her Las Vegas celebration plans with Dominik Mysterio, Raquel Rodriguez, and Roxanne Perez.
Liv Morgan’s WrestleMania 42 Title Win Ended Stephanie Vaquer’s 210-Day Women’s World Championship Reign
The victory brought an end to Vaquer’s 210-day reign with the Women’s World Championship — a title she had won at SummerSlam 2025. Morgan’s willingness to openly celebrate winning dishonorably is a reflection of the fully committed heel character she has developed over the past year, one that drew both loud boos and genuine crowd heat throughout the WrestleMania 42 build. Her victory came with assistance from Roxanne Perez and Raquel Rodriguez, the same dynamic Vaquer had been predicting and calling out for months. That Morgan’s first post-match thoughts were specifically about Vaquer’s prediction being correct — and her complete indifference to it — is the most on-brand possible way for the new champion to begin her second Women’s World Championship reign.
