Liv Morgan Clarifies Comments About Online Criticism Towards Her

Liv Morgan stated in an interview with TMZ’s Inside The Ring podcast earlier this month that she does not care what fans have to say about her due to they aren’t her boss in regards to online criticisms from fans about her in WWE.

A recent episode of the Battleground Podcast featured Morgan as the guest. One of the topics discussed included Morgan clarifying her recent comments about online criticisms from fans directed at her.

“That’s not to say that I don’t care about my supporters or the people that watch the product. But pertaining to online criticism, yeah, I do not care. I don’t care about what you have to say. I care about, obviously, what Triple H thinks, my boss. My producers. My peers involved. And whomever I’m seeking guidance for or advice for after the fact. And that could be various people, or no one.

But, yeah, I just feel like — what is that saying? It could be the yummiest, juiciest, most delicious peach in the world, but there’s still someone that doesn’t like peaches. And that’s okay. I don’t care not out of disrespect, I just don’t care just because I understand that not everyone’s going to like everything. So I’m okay with that.”
