Hold on to your hats, wrestling fans! Liv Morgan's electrifying return to WWE at Survivor Series had everyone buzzing about a potential showdown with Women's World Champion Stephanie Vaquer. Remember that intense backstage confrontation on Raw? It felt like the starting gun for an epic title feud! But here's the twist: that dream match might be further off than we all thought. Buckle up, because things are about to get interesting.
Despite that tantalizing tease, sources over at BodySlam.net are reporting (and we've got the link right here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/wwe-raw-womens-147227183) that while a Morgan vs. Vaquer clash has been discussed "for some time," it's not exactly on the fast track. The word is that WWE is playing the long game, aiming for a slow-burn storyline that lets the animosity between these two dynamos simmer and build anticipation over several months. Think classic wrestling storytelling, folks – a gradual escalation of tension rather than an immediate explosion.
Now, let's talk about Stephanie Vaquer. She's been a dominant force in the Raw women's division, holding her own against formidable opponents like Judgment Day's Raquel Rodriguez and even WWE Hall of Famer Nikki Bella. Just this week on Raw in Orlando, she successfully defended her Women’s World Championship in a triple threat match against both Rodriguez and Bella, proving her mettle once again. She's clearly a champion WWE is heavily invested in. But here's where it gets controversial... Is she ready for the challenge that Liv Morgan brings to the table?
And it's not just Liv Morgan on WWE's radar. Whispers backstage suggest that WWE management has HUGE plans for Vaquer's future. We're talking dream matches! The buzz is that they see "tremendous value" in eventually pitting Vaquer against wrestling icons like Becky Lynch and Rhea Ripley. These potential matchups are reportedly part of a grand strategy for Vaquer's title reign, with the timing being key. It's all about striking while the iron is hot, rather than rushing into these high-profile showdowns prematurely. This is the part most people miss: WWE isn't just booking matches; they're crafting a legacy, building a champion who can stand the test of time.
So, what do you think? Is WWE making the right call by delaying the Morgan vs. Vaquer match? Are they right to prioritize long-term storytelling over instant gratification? And which of those dream matches – Vaquer vs. Lynch or Vaquer vs. Ripley – are you most excited to see? Let us know in the comments below! I'm particularly interested in hearing if you think Vaquer is ready for the likes of Becky Lynch or Rhea Ripley. Some might argue she needs more time to solidify her position before facing such established stars. What's your take?
