Ripley's ongoing feud with Liv Morgan
Ripley has been embroiled in a long feud with Liv Morgan over the WWE Women's World Championship, which Morgan currently holds. Morgan was injured by Ripley, but returned the favor after WrestleMania this year. Morgan injured Ripley's shoulder, which forced her to vacate the World Championship. Morgan then won the title and has held it ever since.
Morgan and Ripley battled for the championship at the Bad Blood PLE and that's when Raquel Rodriguez interfered to cost Ripley the match and join Morgan and the new Judgment Day faction.
This weekend, Morgan will face the WWE Women's Champion, Nia Jax, at Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia for the first-ever Crown Jewel Championship.
