Morgan reflects on past near misses and outlines her plan for victory
Summary
– Liv Morgan confirmed her goal is to win the 2026 Women’s Royal Rumble
– She detailed her long history and multiple runner-up finishes in the match
– Morgan identified the number 30 entry as the ideal strategic advantage
Liv Morgan is entering the 2026 Royal Rumble with a clear sense of purpose after years of coming close without capturing the win.
While speaking with SportsCenter, Morgan openly discussed her extensive history in the Women’s Royal Rumble. She noted that she has participated in nearly every edition of the match since its introduction, experiencing a wide range of outcomes along the way.
Morgan explained that she has started the match, finished the match, and even held records on both ends of the spectrum. She was eliminated in record time during one appearance while also setting the record for the longest time spent in the match during another. Despite those experiences, finishing as runner-up twice has remained the most difficult result to accept.
Looking ahead to 2026, Morgan said her focus has shifted from simply competing to finally winning. She stated that the most effective strategy is entering the match as late as possible, ideally at number 30, which allows a competitor to face opponents who are already fatigued.
Morgan acknowledged that entry positions are out of her control, but emphasized that her mindset will not change regardless of when she enters. She made it clear that her goal is not survival or longevity, but finishing the match as the last woman standing.
With years of near misses, surprise returns, and emotional moments behind her, Morgan views the 2026 Royal Rumble as another opportunity to rewrite her history. A victory would send her directly toward WrestleMania and mark the defining moment of her career.
