Liv Morgan has commented on a major WWE touring change that has been implemented in the past few months.
Fans have noticed that non-televised events have been significantly cut back with only 2 main roster house sows taking place in September. This is in addition to a limited number being advertised for the future with the exception of the annual holiday tour and those that are a part of the international tour of the UK and Ireland. TKO President Mark Shapiro recently commented on this decision, stating that the shows themselves were not profitable and were used in the past to promote the brand. However, with WWE being hotter than it arguably ever has, the shows are not necessary right now. It has also been reported that even fewer shows will be scheduled for 2025.
Despite the fact that the cost saving and giving wrestlers less time on the road are both significant benefits, Morgan admits that she will miss the experience. Speaking with the New York Post, the Women’s World Champion said that it would be sad to not be a part of the more relaxed shows and it gives less practice for those starting out:
“I’m sad to see them kind of go a little bit because the house shows are so much fun and it’s so so much more intimate. House shows are truly for the love of the game.” She sadded, “I’m sad to see that go for the newer guys and girls coming in who aren’t going to be able to have that experience and have that reps at live events under that belt but it is what is. Time home is always nice.”
WWE’s most recent house show took place on September 28th in Columbus, Georgia.
Liv Morgan Set For Major Title Defence At WWE Bad Blood
Once again, Morgan’s title reign is under threat as she will put the championship on the line against Rhea Ripley at Bad Blood on October 5th. While Morgan has had Dominik Mysterio by her side for previous defences, things won’t be as straightforward in Atlanta as Mysterio will be locked inside a shark cage.
