WWE Wanted “One Time Pop” For Liv Morgan Lesbian Angle

On the final episode of Monday Night Raw of 2019, Liv Morgan returned to TV for the first time in months, interpreting Lana and Bobby Lashley’s wedding by revealing that she was in love with Lana.

While speaking with Chris Van Vliet, AEW star Miro noted that WWE had no plans to do a long-term lesbian storyline between Liv Morgan and Lana, and used the reveal as a “one time pop”:

“No plan. One time pop. No plan. A lot of things were made for one time pops. That was it. People thought and they made up all these things. No, it was a one time thing that was great and was going to get people talking because at that time the showrunner was about getting people talking and controversy.

“That’s why the whole thing happened, you know the Bobby thing, it was all about controversy and we achieved that. Unfortunately now there’s no follow through but that’s what happens when you change people all the time.”

There were reportedly pitches backstage to have Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville involved in a lesbian storyline on SmackDown last year, but those plans never materialised. It remains to be seen whether WWE is planning a proper LGBTQ+ storyline anytime soon.
