Shayna Baszler Explains Why She Held Back Against Liv Morgan

Liv Morgan won the Money In The Bank match and then cashed it in on Ronda Rousey on the same night. She became the Smackdown Women’s Champion and fans were simply elated for her.

Shayna Baszler utterly decimated Liv Morgan on this week’s episode of Friday Night Smackdown. She brutally attacked Morgan’s arm but didn’t finish the job.

While speaking on SmackDown Lowdown, Shayna Baszler said that she showed some restraint during the attack just to make sure that Morgan was cleared to compete at Clash at the Castle.

I am sick and tired of everyone accusing me of not pulling the trigger or restraint or however you wanna word it, okay? What I did tonight was strategic. I need Liv Morgan to be medically okay in Cardiff. Okay, as much as I relish in the sound of tearing people’s limbs off like when you pull the turkey leg off at Thanksgiving, that will be so much sweeter when I’m walking out with her limb and the title, at the same time, at Clash at the Castle. That wasn’t restraint, that was strategy. I need Liv in Cardiff and now I made sure she’s gonna be there. Watch me.
