Liv Morgan admits to having "survivors guilt" after top AEW star was fired from WWE
Liv Morgan recently revealed that she felt some feelings of guilt after Ruby Soho (a.k.a Ruby Riott) was let go by WWE.
Before being released in 2021, Soho worked for WWE for 5 years, the majority of that time, she spent with Morgan in the group known as the Riott Squad.
Speaking to Ariel Helwani on BT Sport, Liv stated that she assumed when Ruby was fired that she would be next.
"She calls me and she's like 'I just got fired' and I live on a farm and I don't get cell service. So in that moment I was like 'oh me too, like if they fired Ruby, they've fired me'." Morgan added: "And then I wasn't fired and I'm so grateful that I wasn't but in that moment it was almost worse that I wasn't also fired. I don't want her to feel like I was better than her because I don't believe that, you know. So I just I didn't know how to handle my best friend, who I'm in a tag team with being let go and me still be here. Really bad survivors guilt." From 25:36 to 27:30
Despite no longer working together in WWE, both women remain very close friends to this day.
