Bully Ray Analyzes the Compelling Storyline on “Busted Open Radio”
Summary
– Liv Morgan kissed Dominik Mysterio after her main event victory on WWE Raw.
– Bully Ray discusses the unfolding soap opera-like storyline.
– Morgan’s motivations linked to her feud with Rhea Ripley.
Though it didn’t make the USA Network broadcast, Monday’s “WWE Raw” ended dramatically as Liv Morgan kissed Dominik Mysterio following her main event victory. The scene quickly caught fans’ attention, and WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray offered his insights on the angle during a recent episode of “Busted Open Radio.”
“It’s a soap opera and the story is unfolding,” Bully said. “All I know is Liv Morgan went in for that kiss, she grabbed it, Dominik looked pissed off, [and] Liv looked extremely happy as if [she] got what [she] wanted.”
Before the kiss, Mysterio had inadvertently helped Morgan retain her title against Becky Lynch in a Steel Cage match. Morgan’s involvement with The Judgment Day seems strategic, especially considering her ongoing feud with Rhea Ripley, which was put on hold due to Ripley’s injury.
“There’s more story to be told with Liv slowly luring Dom in than there is with Dom just turning and going with Liv,” Bully continued. “Then you’re asking yourself why. ‘Why did he just turn his back on Mami? What happened to their relationship? Why did he just jump into Liv’s corner?’ With this, like last night, you saw the disgust on Dom’s face.”
Bully believes Morgan’s gradual seduction of Mysterio makes for more compelling television. Ripley’s eventual return will add even more intensity to the storyline, fueling the drama further.
The former WWE Tag Team Champion praised the company for creating such a talked-about angle, noting the clip had garnered 3 million views online within a day, alongside the traditional TV viewership for “Raw.”
