Liv Morgan Wins Women’s Royal Rumble 2026, Brie Bella and Tiffany Stratton Return – The WWE Royal Rumble premium live event kicked off with the Women’s Royal Rumble Match opening the main card, immediately setting the tone for one of WWE’s most anticipated shows of the year.
Liv Morgan emerged victorious in the 2026 Women’s Royal Rumble, last eliminating Tiffany Stratton to secure her first-ever Royal Rumble win. Morgan entered the match at number 14 and survived a crowded and chaotic field to earn a guaranteed women’s world championship match at WrestleMania 42.
The final moments of the match came down to Liv Morgan, Tiffany Stratton, and Sol Ruca. All three competitors battled on the apron after being sent over the top rope, with elimination hinging on who would hit the floor first. Sol Ruca attempted to hit a Sol Snatcher, but Stratton countered by shoving Ruca to the outside to score the elimination. Moments later, Morgan caught Stratton with Oblivion and launched her off the apron, with both feet hitting the floor to end the match.
Raquel Rodriguez was also part of the final four and played a major role in the closing stretch. After eliminating Rhea Ripley, Rodriguez briefly turned her back, giving Morgan the opening she needed to dump Rodriguez over the top rope to the floor.
The win marks a major milestone for Morgan, who had previously finished as the runner-up in the Royal Rumble on two occasions. This victory officially positions her as one of the top names in the women’s division heading into WrestleMania season.
The match also featured a major surprise late in the bout. WWE Hall of Famer Brie Bella made her return to WWE as the number 29 entrant, drawing a strong reaction from the crowd. Bella had been away from WWE television for several years, making her appearance one of the most talked-about moments of the match.
Immediately following Bella’s entrance, Tiffany Stratton entered at number 30 and made an instant impact, ultimately coming up just short in the final elimination.
With the Women’s Royal Rumble now in the books, Liv Morgan stands one step closer to championship gold on WWE’s biggest stage.
