Liv Morgan captured the Women’s World Championship at WrestleMania 42 Saturday, but new details explain why her match with Stephanie Vaquer was shorter than expected.
Morgan defeated Vaquer in Las Vegas in a fast-paced bout that ended quickly compared to other matches on the card. Despite the limited time, the match included key moments, including outside involvement from Roxanne Perez and a decisive finish.
According to sources from WrestlingAttitude.com, both Morgan and Vaquer entered WrestleMania already dealing with injuries. As a result, WWE made the decision to keep the match brief to avoid further damage on either side.
The approach ensured both competitors could still deliver a complete match while reducing the risk of aggravating existing issues. Even with the shorter runtime, the match maintained a steady pace and included enough offense to lead into a clear finish.
The closing sequence saw Morgan take control by sending Vaquer into the steel steps before returning to the ring to deliver her finishing move for the win. The result allowed Morgan to reclaim the Women’s World Championship on one of WWE’s biggest stages.
In addition to the victory, Morgan also performed her own entrance music live before the match, adding to her presentation on the night.
While the match length drew attention from fans, the decision appears to have been a precaution based on the physical condition of both competitors. Morgan still left WrestleMania with a championship win, marking a significant moment despite the adjusted match structure.
